  1. Last call on discussions for the OAAW #83 as I’ll probably pull it tomorrow morning for a local discussion later that day.
  2. If they do not change the declared value of the book for insurance purposes, then what the heck are they charging more for? If my copy of a book is nicer than your copy of the same book and I’m charged more based on that for the same service, that doesn’t suggest impartiality in grading. If anything, it will lead many to infer the opposite about the relationship between amount paid and final grade received. Walk a Brooks Brothers suit and a department store suit into your dry cleaner for the same service. The price doesn’t change.
  3. Agreed about Kubert. Would love a nice B&B #34 with good color strike. Beautiful cover. But even the “typical DC Silver” standard, it’s a cut below. Got the TPB of all six issues in a collection. It was awful. JLA, Flash, superboy, etc still readable and charming. It’s worse than the standard.
  4. I read other stuff too. I just didn’t like it. Hence the unpopular opinion.
  5. If you think those books are unreadable try reading the Silver Age Hawkman relaunch in Brave and the Bold.
  6. Lady in red shoes fighting communists to lady in red pants fighting communists
  7. Thought you guys would appreciate this Barry Blair cover OA, as there’s not a lot of Elfquest OA out there.
  8. That’s my crappy photography/lighting one-two punch. Clean book. Thank you!
  9. The lower right corner coupla color-breaking creases is the worst of it. Thanks in advance!
  10. Wings #89 cgc 2.5 $400 shipped within U.S. GGA? Check. Bondage? Check. Racist stereotype? Check.
  11. Still open to offers on either book/both. The OAAW probably has until the beginning of the week to hang around here for contemplation. After that it’s back to the local trade talk. I also have this Herb Trimpe Hulk sketch up over in the OA sales forum, for those who don’t venture there. Open to offers on it as well.
  12. Ok, let’s trim the separate prices one more time to match the previous package deal, for those who might be interested in one but not both: OAAW #83 now REMOVED ST #89 now $600 shipped!
  13. I was just kidding based on the title, as in: "Marvel Ruins" = recent MCU projects. But it also sounds like a lot of people find it a good read. Will keep my eyes peeled.
  14. “Marvel Ruins” … Flippers probably just saw the title and assumed it was the template for the current movie phase.
  15. Something exists: https://www.comicartfans.com/GalleryPiece.asp?Piece=1005748&GSub=46880
  16. I know it’s freshly post-code but I couldn’t resist!
  17. Just dropped the price on Fin Fang Foom. Open to offers on both/either!
