  1. Nice story. When we were kids, me and my brother were into comics in a big way, and we did it together. He was Hulk, I was Spidey. Then we got older, and off he went. His lunatic partner threw all his comics out. She was like that. All his Hulks. So when he returned to the fold, many, many years later, I secretly built up a near full set of Hulks and presented them to him on his birthday. He was moved to tears. The plan for me was to get back into comics and going to fairs like we used to. It didn't work. It was clear he was no longer into them and I ended up selling them all for him a few years back. So we didn't get to reconnect alas and I still therefore do all the comic stuff alone. I liked the old days when we were kids, and that shared feeling of excitement when we lucked out on finds. They were happy times.
  2. Sounds odd. Wouldn't a 'reader copy' not just be the standard printing? I've never heard the like of it.
  3. The other pictures in the listing look quite real, so if it is a fake it looks good. If I was faking a book, I wouldn't put a visible crease on the cover, which might put off those who otherwise might happily plonk down the $299 he's asking for it. https://www.ebay.com/itm/What-IF-Peter-Parker-Became-the-Punisher-Variant-issue-1-RARE/283336231344?hash=item41f827c9b0:g:I1AAAOSw8VtcOYMP:rk:3:pf:0 Could be a double bluff though. Have you tried contacting the seller? Probably turn out to be a retailer incentive / promotional item (although like you I couldn't find anything online but the ebay listing)

  5. Advertisement. "Terri...you're TerriFIC!" ("How can you be so crude?") "Oh, sorry Terri. That's Paddington isn't it. I meant to pull into Charing Cross" ("Well, fair enough. But he damn well better wash his hands before supper...") Advertisement.
  6. Look, it moves before we post it alright? Get a life and stop complaining. Look at Rhea - she' can't get it on anymore, and you're moaning about gifs that don't work? I think you need to show a little perspective.
  7. We would just like to apologise for the technical fault in our last broadcast, which included a picture of two rutting foxes which was supposed to move. The correct moving version is shown above. We hope that this did not spoil our viewers enjoyment of the broadcast.
  8. I LOVE YOU (Terms and conditions apply) All the tender, sweet, young romance... when the boy of your dreams says..."Coupons worth $3.37 in this issue" "Now she'll find out what kind of a man she loves...a thief! Daphne, look at this receipt. I followed him from the self checkout and he quite brazenly put two birthday cards through as one item!" "Oh Dave, is this true?" "It was a mistake Daphne, a simple mistake" "Don't listen to him Daphne. Today, a free card, tomorrow, your life savings!" "That's a bit of a stretch Barry, even for you! You're just jealous that it's me she wants and not you! Look at you with that silly moustache - you're a joke mate, a joke!" "Oh Dave..." A boy....a girl....a moon! What? A moon? What does that mean? The moon in the night sky? Did they show their arses at the window? What does it mean? Martha's a cow isn't she. He gave her a lovely pearl necklace and she's off at the first sign her careers in jeopardy. I'd take those beads right back if i was sailor boy. What? He never gave her the beads? Well what's this pearl necklace he's been telling everyone he gave......Oh, right. I see. Well, he is an able seaman I suppose. "What soup did you make Daphne?" "Tomato" "Again?" "Don't start Dave" Crippled heart? Looks like the situation is dire, Rhea. Fate has clearly contrived to deny you your carnal urges... Is it any wonder that Willie torments you? Meanwhile, still no prizes awarded in the Bonono Turkish Taffy Give-Away. I LOVE YOU I really do. And anyone who says otherwise is a Tuck-in Friar
  9. One more time! Some one wrote that. Some one out there, probably long since departed, wrote that. They probably had hopes and dreams of a glorious career in musical theatre. But it stalled with the Bonomo Turkish Taffy theme. Just another human tragedy, lost in the midst of time. As for Konga, well his donga was getting longa so the Registered Nurse had to act before he ran out of wonga. It was getting out of hand you see... His, not hers.
  10. I think I see a Thor #17 $2.29 hiding in here if anyone wants it: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Avengers-comic-lot-The-Mighty-Thor-1998-1-3-5-8-9-11-29-Annual-2000-VF-Bagged/232963254599?ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&redirect=mobile
  11. Blame the Wizard. 'Just up the road' he said...
  12. I found it surprisingly easy actually. Probably on account of nothing of note / worth happening throughout. I've started again haven't I.
  13. I wouldn't say early cranky Capaldi hated the humans Skylath, but he was certainly less sympathetic to their pathetic tendencies than his prior selves. Although Colin was a grouch too, when he wanted to be. Especially when he wanted to say the same thing twice loudly. Back to Capaldi biscuit, how so 'bombed' in your opinion? Give us something to discuss
  14. Thanks nesqrick2. I knew you wouldn't let me down. If you have any titles that we haven't captured yet, let me know buddy
  15. https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/faeces Call it a draw
  16. On the 'a' that the dog ate? It would also explain his expression.
  17. I see... Maybe I'd find the duplicate post in there? Maybe that's what he ate. Anyway, nice doggie
  18. I wouldn't say I was worried as such. More inquisitive. He seemed a nice robot to me, in a sloppy kind of way. Now the Dog on the other hand, he seems troubled. Like he's trying to pass a square item out of a round hole. You're sure he never ate the robot?
