  1. And until lizards2 has a - show like mine, he’s just playing tiddlywinks. Somewhere in that thread, a detective is still tracking my whereabouts.
  2. While thread-carping in sales can get you a wrist slap, this community, especially among those of us more active in selling and buying here, accepts that thread-carping is acceptable when drawing attention to questionable posts, especially guarding against possible misrepresentation of books.
  3. Yeah, a poor showing indeed. I try to avoid much of these conversations, but I want to add my voice to those expressing dismay with this. Crass profiteering, or at least an attempt at it.
  4. I love Starlin, but that's far from his best work. That's especially true for Eternals IMHO.
  5. Eternals, she hulk 1, special marvel edition 15. These are three that felt like the market jumping the shark to me. They're ugly, abundant, and negligible in the history of comics. But people are nuts for them.
  6. After my doctor's visit yesterday, I'm giving serious thought to bailing. If and when the balloon bursts, it's not like prices will magically drop to "reasonable" levels.
  7. MRI or Foxhole. I really need one of these Medicare for all candidates to come through in the next 12 hours.
  8. Speaking of the Hammer, anytime got any great Western covers with black cowboys, and which aren't racist?
  9. Deal o' the day! $350 shipped. Payment with 24 hours of a take it.
  10. Someone break my heart and take the Cole for $115, or $110 if by fee-free method.
  11. Ribbit ribbit I sold that biscuit Tater tater Maybe more later.
  12. SOLD! House of Secrets 103, NM/NM+, $255 shipped This has been one of my most prized comics, one I've never wanted to let go, but after my Last Gasp sale, I spent so much money on weed, cheap entertainment (thanks for the movies, iTunes!), and more comics, that now I need more cash! That's what happens when my wife leaves me home alone for a week; the worst part is, she says she's never leaving me home alone again. This comic does not have a last gasp sale price. This particular comic is a gorgeous copy of a hot run with a cover by that run's hottest artist. I bought this from Highgradecomics.com maybe two years ago?
  13. The Dread Pimplord has dropped the price of the Cole to $135 shipped!
  14. I collect comics to ensure that my seed continues to grow and spread across the world.
  15. I'll try to add photos in light later. Those reds in the above scans look too purple to me.
  16. SOLD! Captain Aero Comics #24, 3.5, good colors despite the loss of gloss, the front is nice and flat without creasing or detractors despite the grade, obvious corner piece out, there's a stain at the top edge above the "C" that penetrates to the back cover. Cole could do so much with so little. Against a yellow, blue, and red background, four planes in perfect parallel unload their bombs over Japan. This sought-after war cover shows Cole's mastery of composition and color, and highlights his ability to communicate ideas boldly and succinctly. Yours for $175 $150 $135 NOW $115 shipped. All I know of it's provenance is that I bought this copy from Shortboxed.
