  1. There's a 'blast' joke in there somewhere I recall reading on the Invision site that it is configurable cosmetic functionality (i.e. our admins can turn it off). With a bit of luck they'll drop it like they did the side bar
  2. @comicdonna @skypinkblu Hello you two. There was an unannounced update today.... ...which is still running at the time of writing: Some things are now different - the most obvious is the update to the 'Boards Title' which now shows as follows: It's still running, as I say, but perhaps one of you could flag this to the admins via your moderators messaging system as there's a good chance they won't be aware of it if our recent PM correspondence is anything to go by. I'll have a scout around and see if anything else has changed and will post here if so. Thanks
  3. I like how the webbing sits behind the main title, but over the top wording on that issue - it looks cool.
  4. I spotted this on eBay today - it brings my summary table up to 80 confirmed issues: Interesting that it is a complimentary copy...
  5. I like that 'constipated' won out over, say, 'happy' or 'contented' for inclusion on the list.
  6. On this rather jolly cover, once you've finished wondering from where Spidey's webbing would be coming were you to continue to plot it in the straight line beyond his hand, and why that same webbing seems to get thicker as it travels back into the distance to the tower... ....your attention is immediately drawn to the Thing.
  7. Good man Not sure if I've posted this one before, in the middle of the two eras - note the two left feet...
  8. I don't follow that aspect, but I wonder if threads like these have a bearing? Probably not - I suspect the majority of interested parties post on FB groups or elsewhere, but it could be that tabling the NBS subset in the way we have encourages more collectors to join in. It gives an indication of the size of the task which, perhaps, makes it feel more achievable. Not knowing the extent of what is out there might be a barrier to joining in for some. Who knows.
  9. Aesthetically, yes I agree, but I have developed a fondness for our UK price stamps now, since focussing more on them. I think I said earlier, I never thought I'd ever be disappointed not to see one (on certain books at least). 9d, 6d, 3d....
  10. Nicely done Grumble - as I went down the list, I was wondering whether the teeth monster would get the top spot
  11. I think the overall quality of Charlton's output went downhill around 1966/7 myself - certainly in terms of what I like personally - but some of the romance titles happily buck that trend. I love this cover for example: She's just adorable, isn't she Interesting to see the progression from Silver to Bronze in that title - separated by a mere 15 years and yet seemingly worlds apart: Volume 1, #22, November 1961 Volume 8, #112, August 1976 @Crimebuster - as OP, do we have your blessing to extend into bronze here?
  12. It has been reported: https://www.cgccomics.com/boards/topic/493197-unable-to-edit-sales-thread-title/?do=findComment&comment=11874515
  13. I see Darryl has listed what looks like an original owner X-Men run on the bay. 2-7 are pence copies, 8-12 T&P stamped cents (below), then it's back to pence from #13 on. Nice when it all ties in isn't it:
  14. You rang I think @Garystar did that....
  15. Nice dual pricing on that copy: Good luck on the 648 quest (bet you extend it if you ever get there )
  16. That's a sweet Amazing two with Manoo, Sweet Lou. How do you do, Sweet Lou's sweet Manoo in Amazing two Here's my Miller one: Colour touched to focaccia, but I don't care
  17. If the certificate numbers are accurate, there are 1,438 Alans to collect - are you going for it Mikey?
