  1. Someone sent in a 5.0 graded book to an Ah, who sent it in for a regrade, and it came back a 4.5. 130 people believe the likeliest explanation for this is that the book was swapped out. Why are people so stupid??
  2. To those who have the Geoff Johns Green Lantern omniboo, is there much overlap between them and the Blackest Night omnibus? Do the GL omnis contain the main BL story as well as the GL tie-in issues? Cheers.
  3. Thanks Buzz, you're a legend. I didn't think that Dr Fate looked right for some reason. Good attempt though, I'll give it that.
  4. @Buzzetta did DC do many characters in Lego blind bags? I know they did some, as I bought a Catman. But did they do characters like Dr Fate, Stargirl, and Ted Kord Blue Beetle? Someone showed them off on Reddit, along with other supposed DC Lego's, and I want them, but only if they're legit.
  5. I normally don't like Morales' art either (it's his noses that do it for me, I can't stand his noses) but I thought he did alright in Hawkman, for the most part. Totally understand you feeling the opposite though. And that's high praise for JSA, but IMO we'll-earned. It's quality all the way (well, not counting the last few issues which Johns didn't do, and they're still not too bad). Are you going to read Omni 3 now? It's a very different tone IMO. Strong first 7 issues or so, but I'm not personally a fan of My Kingdom Come, the semi-sequel to Kingdom Come. It just doesn't do much for me.
  6. What'd you think of it? And was it the Johns Hawkman? If so, same question.
  7. Pencils of Jim Lee cover for Amalgam Omni. https://www.comicsbeat.com/jim-lee-dc-vs-marvel-amalgam-age-omnibus/?fbclid=IwAR1hQmqofMO43pRs5Y0Q5nb8PNsbodykQId0licEk8tF45Arxq56GFnBZNA_aem_AXVpkVlFpjpkcCSZz8Aso1cwbqfDE-GKJ3OY48HZmKfZ1Y6dVLZv6qzphTp0wDFFOZ4
  8. Lol just went to BBTS and their big newest item for preorder is a 1/12 scale Halo Carter* figure. "Hot damn I need that!" I thought, and went to preorder it. $180US. Yeeeaaahhhh not so much, it seems. *Carter is my absolute favourite Halo character.
  9. Contents for the DC/Marvel Omnis have been updated. Everything is in the Amalgam one now, bar the 2 issues done by Gerard Jones.
  10. I just never wanted the whole wave, and thought it was 'too expensive' to buy whole waves back then just for CNC's I wanted. Boy if me back then knew today's prices! It was a great time. I could spend big bucks and time trying fruitlessly to get these new McFarlane releases, or I could fill in holes from my Mattel collection, and expand it. I'll take option B) thanks.
  11. I got a grail of mine today: Mattel DCUC CNC Kilowog. He's an absolute monster so scale is right out the window, but the sculpt is just gorgeous. I love him and he's going to look great with all my other Lanterns.
  12. Man I miss Liberty Meadows. https://www.gocomics.com/libertymeadows/2002/08/16
  13. Here's proof. Excuse my ugly feet. Fibromyalgia also screws with your toenails.
  14. Thundercats #1 - 127 covers!! There's a gallery in the back of them all. It takes up 5 pages. That's nuts. I only got cover A, as that's all we got here, we weren't supposed to get it at all, licensing means it's not supposed to be shipped outside of the US. An okay comic, but I can't get used to Tygra with a safari moustache. Transformers (Skybound) #3-5. This was a fantastic new issue, can't wait until next issue, even if I am dreading it, as it means the loss of a character, and the end of Daniel Warren Johnson's amazing run on pencils. Highly recommended. Dutch #1 why bother bringing him back if he's nothing like he was? I trust Casey, but he's leading me down a pebbly path. Maybe Blood Squad Seven will be more my style. Cobra Commander #1 Very enjoyable. Really liked this one, and I wasn't expecting much from the Joe books. Duke #1-2 loving this. The writing, the art, it's got it all. Really hope they can get artist Tom Reilly to stick around for some more projects. He's too good. Green Lantern Alan Scott #1-3 I'm really enjoying this. Don't understand the complaints. I can think of a reason, but I'm not going to say it. The Flash Jay Garrick #1-4 I'm enjoying this just as much as GL. First I've heard of Mr Terrific's son being saved (I don't know how necessary that is, but whatever). I'll have to track down those issues. JLA by Grant Morrison Omnibus. A fun read, these books really didn't feel dated. I just wish he'd used Connor Hawke more, but then, I wish everyone had. I think this material gets overrated, but it is pretty decent, I don't have any complaints. And that takes me up to 447 books Read for the year. I've slowed right down.
  15. Lol I did the exact same thing last night. I'm limping around the house today.
  16. That's a really obvious one.
  17. My Monkey's Name Is Jennifer. I have it in tpb, and it's a riot. Absolutely hilarious, and a terrific read. It's endorsed by Walt Simonson too, so you can't go wrong.
