  1. I will say it again - Disney should do a Magneto: Origins movie - Fassbender is great, the character is awesome, and if we can get more scens like the Argentina scene in First Class then everyone is a winner!

For the record I would not be selling these books - but seems a grail book of mine is within reach - so sacrifices need to be made Tales of Suspense 52 CGC 4.5 - C/OW Pages - 1st Black Widow - Asking Price = $1,026.00 $990.00 SOLD which is $210 less than last GPA of $1,140.00 (and a 5.0 just sold for $1,425.00). Really nice presenting copy of a very hot book. Marvel Premiere 19 CGC NG - Wolverine Ad Page - Signed by Trimpe and Wein - Asking Price = $400.00 $320.00 $300.00 (cannot really find GPA Data on this one) Giant Size Defenders 3 CGC 5.5 - OW-W Pages - 1st Korvac (rumored big bad in Phase IV of the MCU - HOT book) - Asking Price = $160.00 $140.00 $125.00
  5. Saw this on the weekend - it was MUCH better than expected given the negative reviews and box office beating it is taking. It was better than Last Stand and MUCH better than Apocalypse - it was by no means great, but the action was good and the FX were great. I just want Marvel Studios to do a stand-alone Magneto movie with Fassbender
  6. Question to the X-Men collectors - when it comes to Havok - why is it that X-Men 58 seems to be the bigger book as opposed to X-Men 54? Is it the Cover? Why is not akin to Captain Marvel and Marvel Super-Heroes 13 being the key - with X-Men 54 being the key book to own?
  7. So this is the new Spec Book eh Not really familiar with the Character or the Story Arc - do people think this is a good choice for the new big bad in the MCU - I like the combo idea with one on Earth and one more Galactic/Cosmic ......
  8. Let's be clear here - none of the Avengers Movies (while entertaining) should be nominated for Best Picture - the acting is not at an Oscar level, nor is the story/plot. I don't think Black Panther should have been nominated either (as the acting was just ok - I really enjoyed and liked the movie and visually it was stunning) - really the only Super-Hero film I can see being worthy of a Best Picture Nomination is The Dark Knight - because the acting (from Heath Ledger) was superb as wwas the story and cinematography. Now if your argument is it made the most money so it should be nominated for best picture - then you are asking for the Oscar's not to be about acting/plot/story - but more so about box office appeal - which is not the point of the Oscars. However, if a critic/oscar voter dismisses a film solely because it is a blockbuster film and not because he thinks the acting/story/plot do not meet the Oscar requirements that is also wrong.
  9. I thought Tony had said - we do not mess with the past several years since the original decimation as he did not want to undo his time since then (i.e., him having a daughter) - so if he reset them back to the original time wouldn't his daughter cease to exist? This whole thing is somewhat confusing - but as long as they use the "alternate timelines/realities" as a way to introduce the X-Men and Silver Surfer I am ok with it
  10. Great set of books! Really nice presenting X-Men 1 for the grade as well
  11. X-Men 1 all day - first x-Men and first Magneto - easy choice IMO.
  12. Oh no - I did not want a fight where Hulk wins, I actually wanted Thanos to win again and I wanted him to kill Cap in battle (and for that to be the rallying moment (see my initial comment above)). I just wanted a powerful Hulk, and wanted him to go after Thanos. Just like I did not care if Thor beat Thanos, but I wanted him to be the force he was in Infinity War. With respect to the Thor fight, it just did not make sense how in Infinity War he could not deflect or stop Stormbreaker with the Gauntlet fully powered - but in Endgame he could stop it, pick it up and use it - all without the Gauntlet. But
  13. I agree on a couple of things: (1) the Hulk character was not great - and when you factor in his no show in Infinity War it is even worse, everyone had to want an epic fight between him and Thanos and it was nowhere to be seen, it was a real disappointment and (2) while I foudn Fat Thor funny and I understood how he got there (the pity and self-hate) I wanted him to bounce back and be as formidable as he was at the end of Infinity War - I feel like they dropped the ball there. Overall, I really enjoyed the movie - especially Iron Man's arc in it, but I do wish some changes were made (I also wish Cap had sacrificed in battle against Thanos and that was what rallied the Avengers - I think again this could have been a monumental moment that they just missed)
  14. For me Action 23 is the second most important Action, but I accept I am in the minority with that opinion Amazing books everyone!
  15. Something that has been bugging me about the movie - is the lack of Hulk actually fighting, I wanted him to throw down with Thanos. I get that they went professor Hulk - but I wanted that fight 😡 don’t get me wrong Cap duel wielding his shield and Thor’s Hammer was insane - but I wanted Hulk to get his rematch. I really think it was a big miss not having it. That being said - some pretty epic fights: loved the 3 originals going toe to toe with thanos, loved Wanda doing her thing, loved the Captain marvel scene where he headbutts her and she just takes it and smirks. Although I do wish Thanos killed Cap in battle and that his sacrifice was the rallying moment - but c’est la vie
  16. I really do not get the Captain Marvel hate - I think her smirk and the attitude she portrays is perfect for the version of Captain Marvel they want, she is different and fresh, and I think really handles the role well. She is viewed as the most powerful and believes she is, she acts serious, and she is indifferent to the lesser/more human characters - but I think that is intentional, because while she is human, she is very powerful now, thought she was kree, and spends her time fighting and solving issues throughout the universe - so maybe human emotions and problems are trivial to her? Of course people are not going to have the same attachment to her yet - she is a brand new character - but I like the direction they are going with her. I do think the loss of RDJ in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is going to be tough - I am not sure how they are going to handle it, but I am excited to find out.
  17. Wanted to give this club a bump - I have been trying to become a member (see my WTB thread) but have been having a hard time finding a nice low grade copy in the CGC 1.0-3.0 range, so if any members want to exit the club, just shoot me a PM Awesome books everyone!
  18. Another question - if there is restoration on a book that says "Small amount of glue on spine of cover" will the Grader's Notes give ny indication of where that glue is located/where the resto is? I am wondering about being able to possibly remove the small amount of glue.
