  1. Game 6 of what? (I’m completely serious — I stopped watching spectator sports years ago, when I realized none of those guys had bought a jersey with my name on it and started following my market share…)
  2. Thank you! New strips are posted for reading free on his site?
  3. This is awesome, Andrew! Thanks for sharing it. I had no clue Breathed was still at it. Bloom County is back, with Opus, in syndication? For a few years now?
  4. I won’t hurl tomatoes because that’s sadly a very reasonable opinion on much of the material. The nostalgia factor certainly mitigates; he was drawing Godzilla and Shogun Warriors at a time when a lot of the right people were 8 to 12 years old. (And thanks to Dan Green that’s not his worst stuff.) He was also a top tier creator when ranking by who is/was nicest to fans— he is sorely missed by many of us in that regard. Herb also came in at a time when Marvel was also welcoming Steranko, Adams and Starlin - he broke into the big leagues as a very serviceable player among a bunch of future all-stars. Off the top of my head, I think his stuff looked best inked by Marie Severin; of course who inks makes a big difference in finished product, but Herb moreso than a lot of guys seemed to vary widely by inker.
  5. Rather have bland GA than Liefeld manboobs and baby feet.
  6. I see he's buys buying silver...I think he's changed his strategy and is going to sell us the Gold!
  7. updated Recap: Because I implemented a ridiculously complex discount sale, with some books having price cuts in their post, and books under $10/$20 having flat $1/$2 off discounts, except for the Vampirellas, I have listed all recap books at their sale price below. That said, go to the page, look at the pix and defects as they are described there but not below, then quote the post but get the price listed below (some are the same, but when below is lower, that's the price.)

  11. Very cool. Sort of a Two-Fisted Tales #18 homage, I wonder?
  12. Agreed, not the covers to top tier keys, but maybe a notch better than most of what is known. Not top weight class, but arguably a weight class up from most of what's known.
  13. Try pomegranate But yeah, 'til you see those bids, even though you just know in your gut they're coming, that feeling is real....
