Co-writer Hank Kanalz?

No, some guy who threatened to change the industry by making someone the next... Todd McFarlane. He's clearly got no idea of the current industry, and stopped following comics in the initial Image era. "You could be the next Marc Silvestri!" 

"Who's that, Grandpa?" 

Terrific Comics is there name. I think his name is Andrew Rev?

Hello Cat.

My book is fine. don't show that problem.

 

Thanks mate. Already had someone from Reddit confirm it too. Amazon are organising to get me a new copy at the same price, which is good of them, as it's gone up over a hundred dollars since I bought it. I have to let them know when it ships, and they'll refund me the $113AU difference, which is good of them. 

I am disappointed though, as this is the book I was going to read to help me while I deal with the loss of my beloved cat, Chloe, but now I can't, as my copy simply has too many errors. It bugs me. I've moved on to Absolute Doomsday Clock. 

@MagnusX and anyone else that purchased the Moon Knight By Huston Omni, can you please do me a quick favour, and check your copies for me? Go to The Bottom #6, the opening pages of the story. Is your text on those pages out of register? Because mine is, badly, and I just want to make sure they're not all like that before I get a replacement organised from Amazon.

Thank you, and here's what mine looks like.

Both good series.  52 is very consistent in quality.  Thick omnibus.

Yeah, I collected 52 and read it weekly as it came out, but that's the last time I read it, so to be honest, it may as well be new to me, besides the BIG plot points, of course, which I still remember the answers to. 

Doomsday Clock I also bought whenever the heck it decided to come out, but I never got around to reading it. I was saving the issues until I had a good amount to get through, and then I just never got around to it. But I love the creators involved, and for the price I couldn't say no. Worst case scenario is I hate it and sell it and lose $10 on my purchase price. No big deal. But even if I hated it, which is unlikely, I'd probably be inclined to keep it for my Geoff Johns collection.

Damn you, this has got my 2 favourite runs in it. I'll order a copy in the morning. 

Thanks, I hate you. 

And ordered. I hope you're happy with what you've done. I hope you sleep peacefully tonight, with no regrets about what you've done this morning.

Not bad. Very different from what I was expecting. Can't wait to see it.

Some Moon Knight reading.
MOON KNIGHT BY HUSTON, BENSON & HURWITZ OMNIBUS.

Can you please let us know what this is like? I'm interested in this, but have only read Huston and Finch's run. I have no idea what the rest is like, if it's worth a purchase. I could do with some good Moon Knight reading, is this it?

Couldn't help myself, got a good deal on Amazon for the 52 omnibus and the Absolute Doomsday Clock. I'm hopeless. 

I also added the Strange Adventures Deluxe Edition. I've got the regular hardcover of it, but enjoyed it so much I wanted to upgrade to the Deluxe now that's an option. It's a bit larger, and has about 100 pages of extra features, so it's not a complete waste of money. It was also cheap, 50 bucks, originally 110.

He was amazing. Whatever happened to him, anyway? Is he still working?

Check out this Boba Fett he just posted recently on Instagram.

Thank you!  

I rub it the night prior and place in fridge uncovered.  Take out a couple hours early and then cook it at 175 Fahrenheit until internal temp is 120.

I know 175 is low but it’s the only way I get it to cook evenly throughout 

Don't know what those translate to in Celsius, but I'll take mine well done, please.

someone should contact her, she might be able to make a claim against the estate. I do not know how or if this was settled?

Why don't you, Mitch? You were quite close to him and his inner circle, weren't you?

Is there a link to what happened? 

It was before my time. 

From here on is about all that's survived. Note it's the general Probation Discussion Thread, so you'll have to ignore some cross-talk.

Again, we need clarification if he took care of Jean later in the 2010's - there are conflicting reports either he did or did not. Let's not judge the man till all the facts are clear. 

Well the only way we're probably going to get an answer is to ask Mrs Bails herself, something I'm not comfortable doing. The last time I remember seeing her mention the topic was somewhere between 2016-2018 I'd estimate, and she still hadn't been paid back at all at that stage. While possible of course, logically I don't see why he would have paid her back afterwards. 

In hindsight imo we should have used our power as a group to apply pressure and try to get assistance for this poor woman.

Happy surprise! I was starting the process of cleaning up all of these toys, and realized that the DK-1 "Red Sunstreaker" had the pilot inside. Score!

OMG what a score! Congratulations mate!!!! 

Does anyone here own the Strange Adventures Deluxe Edition hardcover? I only own the regular edition hardcover, the own they rereleased when it came out in collected form initially, but I LOVE the series, so it's absolutely one I'd like to upgrade to a deluxe edition. Is it worth it though? Does anyone have pics of said Deluxe Edition? I'm talking about the one written by Tom King, btw. 

Thanks to anyone who is able to assist.

Why? Are you afraid he will scam them?  Your posts in this thread are in poor taste.

I wasn't aware death washed away one's bad deeds. 

If you'll excuse me, I must go celebrate OJ Simpson, since that's how it apparently works now. 

Edit: But seriously Shad, among those he scammed, he scammed a grieving widow. For years, possibly never paid back. That's low. You want to defend that, be my guest.
