Any love for the old Nintendo Power Magazines?
ADAMANTIUM replied to whetteon's topic in Comic Magazines
This is the last of my Nintendo Power, which are raw copies, it's just nice to see something other than WIZARD play so much apart of the action with some detail and posters still attached. Hasn't been explored as much per se, the Ninja Gaiden was a personal favorite although I don't play favorites Here are the last two that are more COMIC RELATED NONETHELESS!! Gaiden is an under copy raw from issue #15 The Dark Sword of Chaos The X-men is from issue #67 X-men Mutant Apocalypse and the Looney Tunes is 56th issue I believe.Bugs Bunny Rabbit Rampage -

I put this pic up in the registry with my 9.0, as it is a "COMPLETE BUT UNDERCOPY" Not sure if my comic room is too dirty in this case? Anyway NINJA GAIDEN 2 POSTER "THE DARK SWORD OF CHAOS" THAT CAME ATTACHED IN ISSUE NUMBER #15. KIND OF HARD TO TAKE A PIC. I had to use my nose

What's your lowest-CGC-graded comic in your personal collection?
ADAMANTIUM replied to Jesse-Lee's topic in Comics General
Lol I do have a ng as well. Anyone care if it says ng (no grade) or pg (page?)? Meaning is there a preference? I know seemingly cgc stances change from time to time, now they would do og for this, but idk if I should reholders? Is there even a clear answer? In the one idk if it matters -
What's your lowest-CGC-graded comic in your personal collection?
ADAMANTIUM replied to Jesse-Lee's topic in Comics General
It's nice symmetry that it's a 20 cent book, in a 2.0, with a 20 on the back. Add in white pages for a 2.0 bronze age book too! Score. -
What's your lowest-CGC-graded comic in your personal collection?
ADAMANTIUM replied to Jesse-Lee's topic in Comics General
As Someone said Avengers #1, although it is "COMPLETE", which a LOT of 0.5 graded copies I've seen of this particular issue are not. I traded this for it.... X-Men 266 cgc ss 8.0 Claremont newsie, New mutants 98 cgc 7.0 direct, Batman adventures 12 direct cgc 8.5, Secret wars 8 direct cgc 8.5. I threw in X-Men #134 in blue cgc 7.5, and a certain 9.2 Batman Harley Quinn 1999 #nn, this and ASM 344 direct cgc 9.8! I only had $1,216 into those books The 2nd lowest I own is a 1.5 Star Wars #4 35 cent variant (in spoiler) that I found in the dollar bin but it and the 0.5 Avengers are the "lowest" I own in slab form, although from there on out I DO have several 1.8's and on up -

I guess you relied on CGC to window bag. Whew! Glad it went well! Those look nice! All silver 💕

That is what I woulda shoulda coulda done I wonder how much that book is "pressable" though, so I chickened out, I have 9.4 and not that I'd expect a drop in grade, it just seemed out of reach for me. That is so cool though, and I would say my 1st experience with the Alex Ross style, especially the statue of this

Ultimate Spider-Man #1 - Price Variant ?
ADAMANTIUM replied to ThatNerdyCanuck's topic in Modern Age Comic Books
In retrospect I agree. I thought enough of them to get the white #1, but seeing it still sell for what I pretty much paid years ago has me thinking it is either nostalgia (or not so much) but maybe more the reputation of Bendis. That said, that title has "meaning" to me in that when I 1st started going again to the LCS, they were the 1st cgc and 9.8's I had ever seen or held. Around 2014. It took me a while to get accustomed to it, but the LCS I was visiting had periodic BIN slab sales at $15 per slab, and that is when I picked some up for the 1st time. I was curious. One was even Signature Series, and it made me want to investigate, just how a "yellow label" worked and etc. Long story to say, Ultimate Spider-man was a decision maker when it came to a lot of things for me -
Ultimate Spider-Man #1 - Price Variant ?
ADAMANTIUM replied to ThatNerdyCanuck's topic in Modern Age Comic Books
That is a very comprehensive list! Or just a lot of "variant editions", I didn't realize this happened this much in the early 2000's, but nice to learn. -
MISSION IMPOSSIBLE 7 directed by Christopher McQuarrie (2021)
ADAMANTIUM replied to Bosco685's topic in The Movie Forum
This is were I was at after the prescreen, yes it is AWESOME! Is it NEW? not really, but rather than sound grumpy it was still a 9/10 for sure It is to the point were, in short, you need to "care" about the characters to have any involvement with the film. I hadn't seen one since like #5 cause for #6 I didn't show up early enough to get in to the prescreen, and yet, it has its merits! -
Nice!! Were they done by Skottie Young as well?
