Yet some person that makes the decisions thought it was a good idea and that person is the problem.

It is the M-She-U when you emasculate the men in the TV show or film. Specific examples: Did we really need to make the Red Guardian a bumbling fool that can barely fit into his costume for the laugh? Did Loki need to be kneed in the package by Sif over and over and over? Ha-ha that's funny...not. Do we need to be shown Matt Murdock dressed in his Daredevil costume doing the walk of shame from Jen's apartment? And let's make the Hulk as soft as possible dressed in a sweater as he introduces his son. And teenage girls with plenty of sass are capable of creating Stark level technology. Good thing too since Stark is dead and they needed the technology creation to drive the stories of their most recent films and clearly any 18-19 year old girl can do it, nothing special about Tony Stark at all. Don't get me started on how they chose to destroy the character of Thor. All of it is absolutely awful writing completely destroying the strong male characters of Marvel history in favor of this new product. It was a mistake in the comics, it is a mistake in their TV shows and films evident by the terrible sales and box office results.

I put on movies from that time frame all the time. Within the last week I watched Iron Man 1 for probably the 10th time. It is so well written and well cast, excellent pacing, great villain and the visuals look fabulous for 2008. I just want to see good movies as well and the genre is not delivering. Winter Soldier is still the best Marvel film in my opinion.

Had this exact scenario play out right here on these boards. Seller with a book I want lists at a price. I checked gpa for sales data and notice the very grade sold very recently and with a little digging I found the auction and it was for the exact book so I now know exactly how much the seller paid for the book. Some negotiation occurred where basically all I needed to know was how much more did the seller want to make vs what I was willing to pay.

yes i did. thank you

it is poor story telling and poor character. Ri-Ri is an awful character following in the footsteps of Rey in Star Wars: just simply is the best and has no character journey. Cassie from Quantumania is yet another teen girl that can build a device that can create a portal to the quantum realm and build her own ant suit.

I laughed at that scene. A cocaine crazed bear chewing on a guy's head to Depeche Mode's "I Just Can't Get Enough" was the highlight of the movie! I went into this viewing with low expectations and got what i expected. Tacky tasteless, stupid as described above. I can't give it a good rating, i am at 5/10 but that is a higher score than i gave to many of Marvels recent tv and film releases.

The first offering of phase 5 was poorly written with bad characters in Quantumania so to me the low quality persists. I hope Guardians 3 is better.

while I don't agree with the order he puts the releases in, I generally agree with his take on all of this. Enjoy!

as long as it is similar in size to a normal comic, as they can encapsulate anything magazine size or smaller.

yes it can, but I would not grade the one in your picture (back cover crease)

generally the duplication or replica of an original character has never been something i like.

not sure who this film is made for. Does anyone want to go watch yet another girl-boss /mary-sue female character rescue and emasculate the bumbling male? I despise the trailers for this and no I will not see it

comics can absorb smells, just take a whiff of a comic that was in a cigarette users home (yuck!) Not sure I see the benefit of these boxes over a regular cardboard box version.

Ep09, wow. Really liked it.

wouldn't surprise me, awful movie

different strokes for different folks!

things you gotta do for love!

Agreed! Quite the intensity

is some news stands

I would leave them as they are. Grading them through CGC the COA's mean nothing, CGC only validates signatures they witness so your books would be viewed as having writing on them which will lower the grades. Additionally I see some condition issues on your books such as spine ticks that will keep them out of the very high end of grades. Last concern is the values of these books when graded. I looked them up in GPA and these books are worth $50-$100-$150 each and if you consider costs of shipping + clean and press + grading in my opinion it isn't cost effective. Keep them as they are and enjoy them.

as do I. Anvil of Crom is an amazing piece.
