  1. Still fun to see covers that reflect the insides, word bubbles and all! Zoinks! Congrats on getting new material, and staying faithful to subject matter. That looks like fun, that and attainable.
  2. Which calls to mind that my 8,5 has not been pressed, as I submitted it raw myself, so you never know
  3. When I said needed delivered, I meant a purchase. But glad to have it, now have a double of an 8.5, which I'm ok with. It gave me one to add a different back cover picture, as some would argue that at least one of the regular back cover need be displayed
  4. That's always been a striking cover too, congrats! Mentioned from another thread about cover attraction so I'll expound imo here too. It always gets to me how that cover color looks like it should make you squeamish or pale, but you can still feel the strength in the words that a "superman would command!" LOL It almost feels like who superman is talking to would get their come uppence before the actual man of steel would, and there in lies the wonder of kryptonite and the will he or won't he have the effects. The colors and streaked out lines have great draw to affect a buyer and reader. I miss that style from the newsstand, but that it's not a lost art, just I grew up with Newsstands and "am still" getting used to buying at the lcs.
  5. It is a great cover, and that Magneto personifies! Even shows banshee being somewhat useful. In the cartoon or some of the books I read with him as a kid, it could get annoying People complain of the sound for several pages, not as "useful to a plot?" But all those characters served their purpose! It's nice to see the new X-men in combat with winners and losers, with the same Magneto from the beginning seemingly bringing the house down. A good Phoenix read.
  6. I forgot to post, please forgive me, my upgrade from an 8.5!! @Turtle
  7. Well I've thought of how to non spoilers a review, and no one asked me but The characters plight really feed off and compliment the other traits of those in circumstances as they appear, it's called teamwork people. Discoveries are made that sometimes lead to something new, even by characters that present themselves as dolts. Many a brave hero comes of it and the end isn't at all a a bad thing. A closer of a film, while closure is in the midst, all to help aid and benefit as a team to new things. . If that sounded like a riddle, better that than cryptic haha. Basically it is a movie of learning to live and with each other, and to be a guardian of the Galaxy, retrospect these are the things that made the other movies great. Although if this one doesn't "move you" it could be the time between films, but it has all the same elements that drew on each other for support and to compliment 🙏
  8. Awesome awesome awesome! Knowing something about plastic! Yay me! Haha Well I hope that it gets sorted for sure.
  9. Ah snap. It is vol 4 I just remember the LCS having them when I bought gwenpool
  10. I really appreciate the price breakdown cause that helps me find things, I had to do the same today hence the tag earlier today The base almost looks as though it's apart of He-Man!
  11. I know that Howard the duck is a first print and a variant, Ah snap. It is vol 4 I just remember the LCS having them when I bought gwenpool Same with the Batman, only about 7.5, but it can press out if anyone was willing to about 8.5/9.0
  12. I'll mimick @Jesse-Lee and price out what I bought today 😂 My friend found so much more but he's more experienced with bin diving. Lol you'd laugh @littledoom cause this is what I found after two rooms of comics. But I'm also saving for a con in a month. 1st marvel zombies variant was $5 is a fine. 1st gwenpool 1st print variant was $2 is vf-. and the others were 75% off sticker then sales tax..... Newsstand Batmans
  13. I got a hat! A gotg hat for sharing a hash tag, sure it's only an iron on but I'll take it! It's got an iron on that says guardians of the Galaxy on the back but just got home so lazy pics... From the prescreen
  14. Awesome awesome awesome 😎 courtesy of my friend @PunisherPunisherPunisher friend to friend. Australian price variants
  15. Courtesy of my friend @PunisherPunisherPunisherwho was generous to part with a few, and now mine. Blessed to be a blessing, super grateful for the generosity 🙏💖!!
  16. I tried to limit my set description for the that reason, and make the individual books longer. That way if they want to see one book then have at it, or at least pick and choose! I tried to leave the book description simple and uniform: why it's in the collection, why or how I obtained, why there is alternative pics of back cover, and graders Notes!
  17. Bless you and same with you! it IS at least fun to think about
  18. Finally someone else posted in this thread. I must have just been excited by the announcement, and as I was working on the registry had loads to comment. Then silence and a whisper 😂
