Diamond sent an e-mail to retailers to destroy the variant for Sonic the Hedgehog #259 . Small print run

What's the reasoning? What happens if the don't, Archie Mafia comes? (I think that's who publishes that, right?)

Edit: there are also 2 variants

Vamplets is hot on day 1. Does anyone think the ashcan from Halloween will heat up too ?

What's so special about this one compared to the series released last year?

This looks awesome btw:

I'm unable to locate the info with various searches. Can the person who listed the print runs for ASM V2 #1 thru #30 bump that post again? I'm pretty sure it was in this thread but it may have been in the ASM Appreciation Thread.

G.I. Joe & The Transformers all used "beams" instead of bullets, and the Cobra guys all ejected before their plane/helicoptor/boat/jeep blew up.

 

I can't tell if this is supposed to be a humorous post or if it is just one of those nitpicking comments that bogs down a thread, At any rate yes while those Saturday morning cartoons from the 80s and 90s were rarely explicitly violent, violence was still a central theme of the shows.

 

Studios do the same thing with movies these days, for the amount of death and destruction in movies like the Avengers and X-Men very rarely does the viewer actually see blood or gore. Nobody is going to care that Rocket Raccoon is out there blasting away aliens and monsters.

 

This is America, sex and nudity is taboo here, not violence. I'm pretty sure kids these days are issued a copy of the latest Call of Duty game on their sixth birthday.

 

Speaking of sex and getting back on topic, some of the more risque Hughes covers from Catwoman volume 3 are also sought after. Everyone knows of 51 of course, but issues 45 and 74 are also popular.

 

A one sentence comment that "bogs down a thread" and your response is 4 paragraphs?

179 results for Amazing Spider-Man 365...most with no bids. Is it the slabs only that are heating up?

2-5 sell every day:

Aren't conventions supposed to be about deals anyway? I mean, I get that some stuff is priced high to keep drawing eyes but...aren't conventions supposed to be about deals anyway? Haha...

That's a relative term. Some peoples deals are anothers trash.

For the record, there have been a few tragedies involving kids between the time most of us were kids and today. It would be nice to act like they didn't happen, but sadly they did. I don't have kids of my own yet, but I do know that blame for a good bit of these was placed on media & parenting.

That was why I am questioning the validity of a speculation as such.

Now, back to the reminiscing...

I'm gonna go out on a Groot limb and say that not only will the movie be a big hit, but Groot and Rocket Raccoon will be the next thing in toys. Start stocking up in August for your kids' Christmas wish lists.

Everyone keeps saying Rocket is going to be huge with kids. Parents are OK with their kids watching and adoring a character with huge guns blazing a lot (killing)? I don't see how this would be OK for Saturday morning cartoons.

 

Looks like someone is late to the party, This has been sough after for a while now.

Late to the party but already has a 9.8?

So, did the symbiote bind to Deadpool or Fantomex for the GOTG book?

I believe it's still Flash Thompson.

 

Based on the image in the article, he looks like a cross between Deadpool and Fantomex.........

That's how he has looked for a while:

Just Wow! ASM #648 variant Raw

 

Seems about right, no?

3+ pages about TV shows? Someone get the mods to move this to Water Cooler!

 

[kidding!]

 

C'mon now. You can't do that. How will people talk about what comics are hot, if they can't talk about TV shows?

So now we can all agree that DD 115 was the first appearance THE WOLVERINE advertisement?

 

Agree ? ........ Here ?

 

GOD BLESS....

Boy ain't that the truth.

Picked this up at a local show for 30 bucks about a month ago.

Oh no, you blew it. You should have said you found it in an attic.

I think sercret service wrapped up filming in February.

I could be wrong.

20th Century Fox has confirmed the film and set November 14, 2014 release date

Nothing reliable though:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Secret_Service_%28film%29

Optioned.

 

I thought Nemesis was optioned too? What happened to that?

A good number of Millar's stuff has been in the works. Nemesis and Secret Service have been in development as well as Starlight, his new book.

I'm sure they certainly can (as could you or I), but I believe that whetton was talking about after the fact.

Somebody already said they know of a couple that have been slabbed without any comments.

WOW if that's real

Supposedly the winner got paid, so that's all that matters. A book is worth what someone is willing to pay.

Read in the Toronto Sun was either Wed or Thurs, an article that Archie Comics is having a final issue with Archie getting killed in June I believe. Not sure how much stake was in the article, but did sound interesting.

Lots o' variants from everyones favs:

Cap 6 is a fenomenon.

I have two copies, 9.6 9.8 candidates, and I am tempted to submit them, but I am afraid that by the time they are slabbed, the hype could be gone.

What do you think? Sell raw or slab them?

He's signed for 7 movies or something crazy like that. There has never been a precedence like this to go by. Could be a $250 book by the next movie.

Has someone gone to the trouble of documenting all the Marvel comics from this month that had the tattooz insert? I know I've seen issues besides the ASM and FF with the tattooz in them. I'm assuming with the other Marvel issues, these weren't inserted into the complete run for the month but just some of the run.

If you could prove it I guess it would be but unless you write on the book "I PUT IN ANOTHER TATTOO " or you do a really bad job there is no way to know. if you put 1 book with the Tattoos in it naturally against a book with the Tattoos added it would look the same. Again if you dont mess it up.

So barely detectable or undetectable resto = no resto. Got it.

Considered restoration by whom? I don't think a third party would be able to tell, but who knows.

Well I want to just kick myself in the sack, missed out on Manifest Destiny issue 1 when it came out, luckily I have the others. I have tried to snipe a copy of 1st print issue 1 and keep missing out. Last few that outbid me was in the 40-50 range.

 

I smell Peter Panzerfaust all over again! May have to suck it up and pay $50.00 for one.

 

the funny thing about MD - there is no talk of a tv show - but it continues to garner interest. All the previous "hot books" had all sorts of media chatter swirling around them. Sometimes a good comic book is just a good comic book.

SAGA didn't either, which is that last book that really took off.

Maybe there is still hope for comics!

I think you're comparing apples and oranges.

 

Mark Jeweler's inserts were placed in approx.. 5% (I believe) of issues and these were distributed to military bases, etc...

 

Whereas the tattooz was in every ASM 238. So you cannot say that the MJ issue should be treated the same as a regular issue since they are much less common than an ASM 238 without tattooz.

 

I believe that many collectors would consider an ASM 238 with the tattooz removed to be incomplete.

From what you to are talking I think it's a somewhat valid comparison in the sense that there is no way of knowing how many 238's still have the original Tattooz in them, attached.

I heard years ago folks buy the issue of Fantastic Four and take the Tattoo out of that and insert it into this issue. Its the same Tattoo. Think its issue 244 ?

Interesting, looks like 252
