  1. Just from my little stack of thirty five books I pulled a few $20 books, and nothing valued less than $5 with many $10 to $15 mixed in. And that was on Saturday, long after they'd all been picked through for two days prior and with me not really paying alot of attention, just grabbing cool silver and bronze stuff as i quickly flipped through stuff. If I had gone all four days, and focused just on doing this I've no doubt I'd have come away with boxes of books. There were lots of deals there.
  2. I only have NYCC from the past two years to go by, as its the only show I've been to since NYCC in 2019, and it very much seems like $3 to $5 is the new dollar bin. There were cheaper bins but they were generally filled with un-bagged rags, what was previously .50 stuff at best. That being said, the $3 and $5 bins were chock full of really great stuff and I wish I had spent more time making piles but I was chasing down my X-Men list. I did a little digging, but could and should have filled a couple of boxes with really nice stuff.
  3. If you mean the actual book and not this article, ya it does look like it'd be worth taking a look despite it all.
  4. Article sucked, guy only read a handful of issues here and there, author of article complains author of book didn’t inject more topical race baiting. saved you a click
  5. A very, very expensive screw up. It's for sure on them if they've sent the wrong books to the wrong person. Man I'd throw up
  6. I don’t know how that happened. They weren’t when I uploaded them
  7. thanks! It felt good, ha. I did buy a small stack of silver/bronze stuff at Victory Comics (I think?) as they had a decent 7 for 20 deal, but otherwise I stayed zeroed in on finishing this X-Men run.
  8. And found this inside the #66 I have no idea if this is legit, but didn't buy it because of the sig. The dealer I got it from wasn't aware it was there.
  9. was only going to go Saturday but saw that Sunday passes were not sold out, so I grabbed one and am now going all weekend. really only targeting X-Men issues for my run, but maybe will try to fill a small box of random other stuff if there are deals. especially Sunday. I signed up for one whole panel on Saturday. I haven't been to a con or show of any kind since 2019 so I don't really care if its not as glorious as usual.
  10. I love that run. I’ll be working on completing it again soon. Great covers and fun stories, what’s not to like?
