  1. Almost caught up myself, just starting Combiner Wars. Overall the IDW series has been solid, especially the Barber and Roberts run of RID and MTMTE (though this one had to grow on me a bit).
  2. Yeah I hope this long break doesn't kill the momentum on the book. It was one of my favorite reads every month.
  3. That's actually a decent band name...
  4. Speaking of Heath, one of my latest pickups. SSWS 81
  5. It must be really tough holding out for 9.8s of these. I find it hard enough to come by a nice 9.6 or the raw equivalent. My 437 is a possible 9.6, but a 9.8, especially with 100 pagers, is so hard to predict. Nice 437. Those 100 pagers certainly are tough finds in high grade. I'm going to be starting my run of 70s Superman and Action soon, once I complete my 1980 up to present day runs. For the 100 pagers I'll be happy with anything above 6.0.
  6. , and it is oddly mesmerizing! 50x...50x...50x I think it is Katy Perry? Don't think it's Katy Perry but not sure who it is since I start vomiting every time I try to look at the picture. It's tough to look at but it does say Katy is wearing lash inserts so I'm pretty sure it is Katy Perry :gossip:Katy Perry is heating up.

  8. That man can draw a tank that is for sure.
  9. I saw it last night, I thought it was pretty good. Not sure why all the negative reviews. As others have said, were critics expecting a paint by the numbers Avengers movie. Not that those are bad either, just different from what BvS was trying to be. I thought it made a decent lead in to a trilogy of planned movies. My only complaints about the movie were: 1. Lex Luther, I duuno Jesse was just playing him too manic...almost Joker like. Not that he did a bad job in acting the part. They should have went an older actor that and play it more calculating and Machiavellian. 2. Doomsday, looked a bit too much like a Olog-hai from Lord of the Rings. He needed more Spikes!
  10. I wish I had known you when I had multiples of the AA #9's...... and I found I was wrong in order for the pictures. and the original which is better than my stitch job, and shows some missing pieces that would have tied this whole thing in nicely. Thanks for work on putting the connecting covers together, looks pretty sweet. And speaking of sweet, the RI for Transformers: More than Meets the Eye #51 , with Tarn of the over looks pretty cool. May have to snag one.
  11. Wow not too surprising though, it is by far the best Superman book on the stands at the moment.
  12. Referring to the 1:15 LIM Variant I assume. Yeah, I picked it up on cover alone. Nice looking variant. And as a bonus the Carnage book has been pretty decent read too.
  13. Do you think that is the "secondary grail" behind Omega Men, now? If not, what? In a world that pays me $10-$15 for X-Force 2's, Lobo #1 has potential. ( You're also seven years younger than me?! Jebus. you look like you got beat up with a bag of donuts. I had you pegged as seven years older. Minimum ) Oh please. I've seen you at shows, you look like you got hit by every branch of the ugly tree you fell out of, and you have a distinctly stalker vibe. I'm no prize by any stretch, but there's no way on earth I look like I'm in my late 50's. Silly Larry. PS. I'd look to books like JLI #18-19, Legion '89 #4, etc. I'm handsome as the day is long. And. I. Know it. JLI 18 it is. 1st main man Lobo. Has a nice ring to it. Also. The cover is absolutely fabulous. JLI 18-19 were great issues, Guy Gardner and the main man Lobo, what is not to like. Heck that whole JLI run was fantastic. Hopefully they will kill off the New 52 version Fobo, and bring back the main man with Rebirth.
  14. hmm maybe I'll have to pick one up. Thanks for the link. For reading order, where do the Windblade, Drift, Punishment and Redemption books, fit into the reading order?
  15. Nice looking OAAW 83. I read my copy as soon as I opened it out of the package. Way cooler experience than when I read it in the Sgt. Rock Archives.
  16. Both of those are sweet, I'll have to keep an eye out for them. IDW has put out a lot of really nice variants for Transformers.
  17. If you say so. The line of deception is pretty easy: is it true? If it's not, or you don't know, you have no business saying it as if it is. "OMG!!! This is the COOLEST BOOK EVER, you HAVE TO HAVE IT, it's like TOTALLY HARD TO GET!!!" - hype "This Dell-Otto ASM #667 was LIMITED TO ONLY 200 copies WORLDWIDE, and you HAVE TO GET IT! You'll NEVER FIND ANOTHER!!!" - deception Nothing that advertisers spam on TV commercials and internet ads don't do. Everyone has the best coffee in New York or so I was told. Blasphemy. We all know Portland has the best coffee. Seattle's Best or Starbucks? Dunn Brothers or Caribou? Every third hispter in Brooklyn seems to be starting a coffee roasting shop. It's getting out of control. You'd think with all these coffee shops and competition it wouldn't be $4 for a cup, but there it is. I know right! In Minneapolis/St.Paul, which isn't exactly gourmet coffee connoisseur territory you can't go more than a few blocks without running into a corporate gourmet coffee shop. And yep it is all about the same high price. I think they are all in cahoots together...beware of Big Coffee.
  18. That emoticon has always confused me. It could go either way. It could be sarcasm, or it could be agreement. I use the golf clap as sarcasm I use it for sarcasm and as kudos. http://www.ebay.com/itm/CGC-9-8-Deadpool-6-first-appearance-of-Deadpool-2099-/111919024188?hash=item1a0ee4c83c:g:FOYAAOSwll1W0kN6 The Deadpool 2099 is pretty dang high in CGC 9.8 for a brand new comic of a major title. BUT the cover is sooooooo tough to find in high grade, The 2nd print too. I've been hunting and hunting, no luck. If Deadpool 2099 is popular or gets more popular, I think the value will keep and rise. Also spoiler alert: Deadpool 2099 is Gwen-pool. Holy rush to market Batman!

  20. Just finished reading Dark Cybertron. Overall I liked it, it was maybe an issue or two too long, but other than that solid. Now on to Dawn of the Autobots. In RI news I manged to snag a MTME 30 RI, with Megs sitting in the Lincoln Memorial. It was just sitting there on the variant shelf at my LCS. Nothing overly valuable, but I had been looking for it, and bam there it was.
  21. That's about market value for that book. I wouldn't bite on one now as he is flooding the market with covers swipes. The only good thing is usually they are very limited. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2055119.m570.l1313.TR12.TRC2.A0.H0.Xdead+pooh.TRS0&_nkw=dead+pooh&_sacat=0 Why would anyone pay that kind of $$$ for cover swipes from that title? Exactly what I want to know too...... Has anybody actually read it? Now back to everything you wanted to know about print runs, but you were afraid to ask...
  22. Very cool! Nice to see someone else collects these. Here's mine that I bought recently. Russ Heath Both of theses sketches are top notch.
  23. Can't wait to read it, still playing catch up on the series. Just starting Dark Cybertron. Overall the IDW Transformers has been pretty good going all they way back to Infiltration. However I have been struggling a bit on some of the MTME issues...maybe because it has a lot of annoying (in my opinion of course) characters. On the other hand RID has been really good. Anyways on to #50!
