  1. My camera work is terrible! I think I should get some Golden Age Boards though... Whaddaya think? Outer bags too big... P.S. Dena moved this thread to Silver Age for me as I started it in CG by mistake. Wonder if I'll get any interest here?
  2. No love for red dividers I see... Or pictures of books everywhere. Shame. Still, it's only a comic book forum. I tell you who would appreciate them though... WYATT EARP! 9 Pence Earps, or Pearps located of a probable 18... Look, are they lions or pumas? Make your bloody mind up! "Now, Marshall Earp, we've got a little surprise for you..." "Ready?" "Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you...." "Oh, you guys! I was sure you'd forgotten" The hidden hand! Oh, there it is. A gun at his back? He's under attack! "Take that!" "Ooff! Yeah, they're OK, but I'm more of a Boyzone man myself. Now, would you stop punching me please Wyatt? There's dynamite about to go off and everything." As drawn by a man whose name you cant say on these here adult boards. THE MAN WHO KILLED WYATT EARP! Cautiously... WILD MEN! ROUGH ME N! Rough me n? Who's n? And why does he want to rough me? I'm not watching this. He shot my paw. "I'll die first before I let you send me to prison again!" "OK, that's fine. Die, and then I'll send you to prison again" "That's a bit silly isn't it Wyatt?" "Simmer down Mamie, I know what I'm doing here" "I'm just saying, if he's dead, then there's no point putting him in prison is there? That's all" "Listen to the lady Wyatt, she knows what she's saying!" "Look, I'm the f****** Marshall around here alright? Haven't you got some bread to bake or something? Leave the capturing of murderers to me, and go and make a pie woman!" "Oh, now you're just being sexist Wyatt. I expect better of you, being the Marshall an all" "Would you just shut the........" WYATT EARP! FRONTIER MARSHALL (No Captain Kirk ear jokes were used in the making of this dross)
  3. Indeed. But I shall miss the old chap. There have been many great Doctors. But, and despite the writers and creators worst efforts, this one was the Doctor.
  4. I've got to say, the art here is great! The Lady in Red is adorable ? Superb, realistic, enchanting. Oh, hang on. No caption necessary And this puts me in mind of Wattoo Wattoo. They hear his call.... And look, I never mentioned sanitary towels once! Oh,
  5. Funnily enough, I was just drinking a glass as I read your post! I'm not drinking it now
  6. Too much scope for conflict I think DeadOne, given the wild variance in members senses of humour around here
  7. We almost share the same title newshane! But odd and sad? Coming from the original 'I hate the new boards' author, I'm a little disappointed.
  8. There's more pots and kettles in this thread than in a pots and kettles shop with a sale on
  9. Don't hold me to this - it was over 10 years ago - but I think I messaged the seller at the time and he said that the artist told him the story about the error being spotted quickly at the presses. No way of verifying it but I did spend a few years checking every copy I saw for it. I saw one on ebay a few years back, so there's at least two. I used to have about 100 ASM printing errors at one point - I think I posted scans that I kept of them here somewhere. I kept this and the ASM 65 as they were my favourites. Happy days.
  10. I'm sure I raised a change request about this once ages ago but I can't find it? I recall getting mauled by the old timers for suggesting we get rid of them. It may have got deleted when I got 'deleted' My position hasn't changed much really. Like @FSF said, it's not the end of the world. But the wording that is currently applied is someone elses wording, sitting above my avatar. I don't like that, as it implies I have chosen that wording. I'm sure most new members assume that FSF chose "If I just sell the car..." But of course, he didn't. If I recall correctly, the title was supposed to indicate the volume of posts made by the member in question. But we now have post counts and date joined, so the title is redundant in that sense. And who would know / remember / care that "Talkative?" indicates X number of posts anyway? I would prefer that we all set our own wording, or that we have no wording at all. In both cases, Custom Titles could still be applied if admin wanted them to continue. I understand the fun / reward aspect of the Custom Title process, and that's fine. But having someone elses stock phrase - and the current ones are cringe worthy - placed against your name seems at odds with self expression. My order of preference would be: 1. No wording / title at all (admin can add a custom if they wish) 2. We set our own wording (admin can override with a custom, but would need to do something so it was clear it was a custom seeing as how everyone's would be different) 3. We have a vote on suggestions put forward for stock phrases - preferably comic / CGC related (like kav's good suggestion earlier in the thread) 4. We have someone elses 'humour' imposed on us (what we have now) Not a big deal, but that's my thoughts now it has been raised again.
  11. @porcupine48 - 7.5 @Spyder! - 7.0 @Cliff R. - 7.0 Thanks for the grades guys Here's a bit more info on it, from the original ebay seller - he graded it a bit lower than you guys did:
  12. Cheers Cliff. How do you think CGC would react to the internal printing error, if advised of it? Label note? Ignore it?
  13. They should definitely reflect the positive aspects of the CGC encapsulation process. How about: Newton ring Shaken case syndrome Gapping Etc...
