  1. I suspect that is true for the generation that grew up in the 60’s, when comic book movies and TV shows were not existent and/or pretty god awful. For that generation, the comics books themselves were the best medium through which to enjoy the characters. I am not sure the same can be said of those who were born in the last 20 to 30 years, when comic books themselves have comparatively gone downhill, whereas movie quality has comparatively gone way up - starting with the original superman movies, Batman movies, and then, of course, the introduction of the MCU. but that’s just my two cents - very curious to hear what others think
  2. I hereby award myself: Silky Johnson status. The most coveted and misunderstood of all Chapelle show positions. Fair?
  3. @Corvonie - you gotta see these bad boys - scroll up (but first get yourself a spare shirt because after scrolling up you are going to have a drooling issue).
  4. I am so out of my league amongst this crew...is this post a dream? What the.... Holy cow!!!!!!!!!!
  5. This is so fun to watch - they are all beautiful, but I gotta say: the RAW copy has my heart. Take those copies out of their plastic prisons guys - they want to be freed! Can you hear their cries for help? Do it..do it...do it... @WernerVonDoom @Sweet Lou 14 @Straw-Man
  6. Great Scott! What else will this boardie crew pull out of their hats?!? So pretty!!!!!!
  7. The inks on this! Look at that red in the banner...it is so bright that it almost looks fluorescent - amazing. Don't know if I have ever seen red ink on ANY SA cover look quite that vibrant.
  8. Did NOT expect a “sir” response from Rick Jones - I guess even Rick Jones matures with age…sigh. DEF the best handle I’ve seen on the boards though - agree with @Corvonie
  9. Just finished a nice little sit down with some Kirby beaters - read FF99 cover to cover without even blinking . First time I actually read raw early FF in a while - and all those warm fuzzy feelings came rushing back to me. For me, just enjoying the story without concern for grade of book, value of book, etc is what got me into this hobby in the first place - important to remember those roots methinks. For this Preacher, FF1-100 is all about one man: Señor Benjamin Grimm. God damn I love Kirby for bringing us Ben!!! God bless that man…
  10. This is going to be frickin awesome…(if you let a pseudo-noob like me partake in the fun). What a fantastic batch of raw goodness - YOWZA! @Corvonie - you seen bc’s stash? Hot tamales…
  11. This. Spot on imo - but will be fun to see how this plays out in the next five years. There is so much uncertainty, but if I were forced to make a prediction, I would posit that prices continue to fall and level off around 2030..and after that who knows. The next big spike in prices will probably not occur until the youth of the early 2000s starts to bring in big paychecks and gets nostalgic about the days of the MCU on the big screen. Although I have always wondered will that generation want to collect the original comics - or movie memorabilia?
  12. @etanick - oh where, oh where has etanick gone? Oh where, oh where could he be??? Been forever man - hope you are well! -Nate
  13. pretty shocked nobody picked up “Neal” yet…
  14. What in the flying F.... Good lawd.... Where's the "taking it up the you know what" emoji?
  15. What’s the grammatically correct sign for “triple ditto”?
