  1. Alright Rock! Howsit going? Why you blanking my 1999-2000 variant thread? It's very rude you know. I called you twice with an @ thing and everything.
  2. We're ignorant and uneducated Ken! I do like these under the table insults. Well, not literally because I'm out of them. Will he go for the hat-trick I wonder?
  3. He needn't worry though Ken. The floating heads of Hulk, two birds and a toad looking bloke are on hand to save the day. It's only Madame Webb anyway! Isn't it?
  4. ...or, an explanation of how you can go, in 27 short issues, from this: ....to this: In London Lurks the Hulk! I love the London land marks on the covers of these London based issues. Here, you can clearly see the Houses of P- Oh, hang on
  5. It's probably shallow of me, but I've never been able to read a comic with bad art. Bad art kills great story for me. Great art elevates bad story. That's the way it has always been for me. Comics are a visual medium though, so maybe it makes some sense. I have always detested McFarlane's art. I can see the skill and competence that others laud, but I just hate the end product. Ditto Byrne, although for different reasons. It's personal taste. My brain is hardwired to dislike it. My gut reaction is 'yuck'. I can't help it. It's similar with music, films etc. So, Mr (ex) Spidey completist here, who has owned 8,000 Spidey books and pretty much had everything ever in his time, has never read a McFarlane run ASM book. Ditto Byrne. Being one of lifes 'lucky' types, which is why I probably gravitated to early Parker in the first place, if I entered a pub quiz on Spider-Man it would probably be full of McFarlane and Byrne run questions. So I'd score zero, and all my mates would laugh and say "Completist! You don't know jack sheet about Spider-Man". Except I don't go to pubs. And have no mates. I'll get me coat.
  6. I was going to say the same thing, but then thought maybe they were being sarcastic...now I'm not so sure Sic 'em Ken! @Ken Aldred
  7. Gee, what a surprise. Bone white pristine looking married cover with (TBC) extra pin holes and cream to OW pages grades at 7.5. And no notes. Ohhh! Can't we do it here? Be a waste otherwise...
  8. Jesus There's something so much more unforgivably horrific than horrific art from people who clearly can draw, as opposed to people who can't draw.
