  2. Hey Mollie I'm sure you are super busy just wanted to check in on this one thanks. Phillip
  3. I had started picking up every variant for the current run then the 790's started and I couldn't justify spending the amount of money to keep up with them. And normally I pick up all JSC covers but I couldn't justify that spend either $208 for 8 covers if my math is right thats almost or over 30 covers for #800 just right now lol. I only hope that some day I can spend the amount of money so of the collectors on here do for issues. But I am not gonna lie i am jealous you got my favorite ones congrats.

  6. When I first started back into collecting I used the good ol'notebook with numbers written down in it. Then decided to check the google play store and found an app called CLZ comics you have to pay like 5 bucks for it but totally worth in in my opinion made things way easier.

    Finally

    As some of you know if you have seen the WTB section or read my journal when I decide to ramble I have been searching for Invincible #75 variant. Much like the 1:100 it was pretty hard to come by for a while with the excitement surrounding the announcement of the movie. Well I finally got my hands on one graded at 9.6 I may have paid more than what I should have but that happens in this hobby sometimes. Regardless I am now 5 issues from having a complete set including variants and in making sure I hadn't miss counted or left anything out I realized I am missing the regular cover for issue #98, once I find that one at a reasonable price and condition the set w/o variants is complete. I am planning on laying off on trying to find the other issues I need given the holidays and may just put it on the back burner until the prices start dropping again. But now I am the happy owner of one of the most sought after comics in this series with 2 others to go so if you happen to have the variants for issues 51 and 52 feel free to contact me and lets work out a deal (lol). Happy hunting to all you collectors out there and hope you find the gems you are looking for.
  8. My very first comic book store experience was the Death of Superman release. I was 7 and didn't even know we had a comic book store near Ft. Knox. Comic Vault guy was 25 when he opened it, and it's still there today. Only comic book store in the county too so needless to say he has a monopoly on it in our area even with Louisville being only 30 minutes away people prefer him over places like Comic Book World and the Great Escape.
  9. So a while back before the overhaul on the journals and message boards I had posted about being almost complete on Image/Skybound's Invincible which in my opinion is probably the best comic story out. Anywho after going through each and every book I had in this series at the time I was missing around 14 issues and decided that I wanted to at least have 9.6's or better. Looking at my collection that wasn't happening at all when I purchased the majority of the middle part of the series I never paid much attention to spin creases or fox ears on the corners I was just excited about owning the comics. Needless to say I had to replace over 30 issues because of these faults knowing that even if I shelled out the cash for pressing it wouldn't make much difference too many color breaks so on and so forth. With all that said I have finally got to the point that I want to be at purchasing most of what I was missing either raw copies or slabbed and definitely a few hard to gets, and I am down to missing only 6 issues to complete a run with all variants and only 1 issue to complete the series. This will mark the second time I have completed a number to number run once I can get my hands on issue #13 GLCBrad had a copy I should have just pulled the trigger on that was already slabbed. And with prices inflating due to the movie announcement it may be a little while before I am able to purchase that issue until the excitement wears off so to say. But I am happy I can say all I need is 1 more. Thanks for reading Phillip.
  10. Thanks hope you can find one yourself
  11. Haha i've done that a few times as well and had to verify i typed it in right.
  12. Finally after not pulling the trigger on this issue a year or 2 ago I was messaged on the boards in the wanting to buy section and an awesome member asked me if I was still looking for this issue. Of course I was and purchased immediately. Case was in good shape still plan on sending it off for the new case. But the hunt for this issue is over and now onto the #52 RRP variant another that I am sure is going to be difficult to acquire. Shout out to Delt569 for allowing me to purchase his copy thanks.
  13. Hello Mollie Could you please fix the Image Comics Invincible set. There is no variant for issue #118, and issue #122 has been graded with cert# being 1231003010. Many thanks. Phillip
  14. I am normally not one to purchase sketches or even pay to have them done. I believe they're way to costly and I could purchase several other items for the amount of money most of my favorite artist would charge for a commission. With that being said I came across a wonderful cover sketch for Invincible #111. Anissa as the joker with Mark in Batgirls shoes done by Scott Blair. I fell in love with this cover as soon as I found it. I think a lot of you guys/gals will appreciate it. Thanks for reading. Phillip
  15. Hello Mollie, Was wondering if there was any way possible to fix the registry for Invincible, there are a few issues in the listing with no point values #114, 116, and 119 through 131. Thank you Phillip
  16. I'll have to agree with you I see it alot in the J. Scott Campbell Variants for ASM. The price jumps when the release happens. But about a month after the are released they fizzle out having that problem with one that I had slabbed right now last one too. Been trying to sell it for a while now and can't offload it. So I hope it does happen with that cover for ya.
  17. Yeah people are selling that cover on eBay for $100 alone I noticed so getting the set direct from Aspen is a much better option.
  18. Haha totally understandable i wanted to get all three covers for both series but i don't have any of the superman/batman series for it to make any sense to purchase. The Supergirl set I have tho only missing the two annuals once I get those I will start submitting to get slabbed. I do love the cape cover tho always been a favorite picture of mine.
  19. Nevermind found out they are reprints from the 2005 series there are a couple on the census already.
  20. So my question about these are 1) is this from the rebirth line or the 2005 series and 2) if it is from the rebirth line why do the covers have churchill and rapmund and loebs name on them. I am going after the issue regardless was just wondering which series i have to put them with thanks. Phillip
  21. Mollie could you also add regular cover for Issue #135 there is one in census. Also there is no variant for issue #118 it's just a regular printing. Thanks Phillip
  22. Mollie, Could you please update the Invincible set to include the following. Set: Invincible Book: Invincible 133 Variant Invincible 133 Image MegaBox Variant Invinicble 135 Variant Thank you.

    Almost there!!!

    So I have posted before about my love for Invincible and no not Iron Man. This is about the only comic book that I have been able to read through a few times and still enjoy. And while Kirkman and company deciding to end it at 144 I have made it a personal goal of grabbing up every single issue including 2nd prints and variants. And now with only about 12 issues left in the series I am almost to my goal. I only lack 6 issues to complete the series thus far minus the extras. It's a great feeling actually being able to handle and hold the issues I once thought I would never see. Last time I was this excited I had 1 issue left to completed a full run minus Variants of ASM 200-700. Which I had to sell (financial issues came about). The only thing that will be left to do is start sending these books off to be graded and hoping my eyes are as good as I think and not have anything less than a 9.6. But I like to think being able to say I own every single issue of an amazing series will be worth it and the grades I get back on them not being as important. We shall see. Thanks for reading.Phillip
