"10 - 9 - 8 - 7" AIMS Machine gun and fires and hits...NOTHING. Terrible.

sad state it is. As an artist myself, I can remember pretty much every drawing I have ever done and we are counting thousands. If I saw it in front of me I would recall, and I am sure the artists in the article are no different and can easily recognize whether a page of art is theirs or a fake.

some great stuff in this thread! Dunno how I missed it. Here is my personal favorite orange cover:

All are nice copies. No need to upgrade.

Soon all the orange shall be removed, and then Mysta shall be mine!

you can buy oversized mylars, and even oversized toploaders for original art from several sources. Bags Unlimited has all sorts of sizes and thickness. This link is to mylars of 2mil to 4mil for 11"x17" to as large as 30-1/2 x 40-1/2" x 4mil Polyester https://www.bagsunlimited.com/category/214/poster-sleeves-backings-polyester-mylar BCW Top Loaders. Link to large top loaders, they make as large as 32" x 43" http://www.bcwsupplies.com/type/toploader/large

the photo shows nothing that interests me. The vague responses to query makes me move on and not give this any more time.

neat!

agreed. I am sure Batman can capture one of the parademons without the criminal.

Well I guess I have to acknowledge that. Some of the movies deliver, others leave me wondering why they didn't at least try to make it the best film they could possibly make. Without excellent writing these films are just popcorn fair with fantastic CGI moments of explosions.

Yes I saw that. UGH so horrid. If the ship is giving him the information they needed to at least add a short sequence where the ship instructs him what to. How does he know the finger prints off of Zod's body will gain entrance to the ship? Why does he bring the body with him? The cutting of himself so that his blood is introduced is so off base. I didn't hear the ship tell him to do that and it needs to be there: have the ship actually say "the remains are in a state where the process will not succeed without the addition of living DNA." Then have Lex ask "can my DNA enable the process?" "Analyzing...yes your DNA is a suitable match". Give the viewer something! None of this sequence makes sense at all. My point is Lex is supposed to be a very smart guy and in a position of power in the world due to the enormous wealth of his empire. Lex would never put himself in the ship itself, it would be a hired "expert" under his employ. The video shows the creation of a creature that isn't in any way under his control (in fact it tries to kill him and Superman has to intervene). This video portrays Lex as a madman, and that isn't Lex Luthor to me. This video is exactly what I am referring to: Lex is badly written, and a strong deviation from the character in the comics and it is in this capacity that WB is failing: they need to stay more true to the character properties like they did with Wonder Woman.

all WB needs to do is WRITE a great story and they won't need to second guess. Wonder Woman is a perfect example: logical flow of the story, great character development and she does very heroic things ( crossing no man's land was fantastic! ) and the movie does extremely well amongst comic book viewers and the general population. Want an example of extremely bad writing? Doomsday in BvS. Totally awful! They have the twitchy and annoyingly portrayed Lex Luthor take the body of Zod and shave off Zod's finger prints?? Then he takes Zod's body to the Kryptonian spacecraft and has the body transform into the creature they call Doomsday. So badly written. How does he know this will happen? It makes no sense. Why is Lex the person doing this he has no idea what the creature will actually do. Something capable of killing "a god on earth" (Superman) may not be controllable would Lex really put himself in that position? A different way of writing it: Have Lex be in control of a company that has bid for the contract to study the alien vessel for the government/ military. One of his hired scientists discovers energy readings from within that reveal a life form signature. Within the Kryptonian ship there is a stasis pod and inside it is Doomsday. He already exists just like in the comics. It adds to the mystery of the creature. I don't need to see a human fooling around with alien technology that he has absolutely no understanding of especially a human in the situation that Lex Luthor is: rich, powerful and tied into all sorts of things. There is no way Lex would be inside the ship himself: a lacky is instructed to go in and Lex watches on a view screen from the safety of his office. Doomsday is awoken and kills the lacky and Lex watches in horror. He then turns off his monitor and destroys all files that link him to this event.

I agree. He is way to over-the-top for me as a Lex Luthor.

why is it encapsulated? At the very least make the wording "counterfeit copy" in HUGE letters on the front. Good god PGX

so many sweet covers.

8-10 longs isn't much. We typically bring the equivalent of up to 25-30 longs. I find the shorts are easier to lift and lighter. Yes you are doing the motions twice as much but it is easier to do. Want to speed it up then lift 2 shorts at once.

we went with shortboxes and I am happy we did so. Easier to haul, can fit them into little spots in the vehicle. Lighter to lift: this old guy isn't as strong as he used to be! I have never used the plastic boxes. I was looking into them a few years ago, the consistently higher price turned me away.

I agree. It is amazing how beat up boxes get doing shows, even if you take care of them something still manages to get dinged and ripped.

agreed. The voice should never have been human sounding. Cold and mechanical yet laden with contempt for humanity is what they should have gone with.

Solid copy!

Thanks my friend, it now resides in a CGC 9.8 Signature Series case!

I picked up a "few" magazines off Aaron, as always great grades and as mentioned the packing is spectacular!

I like the 4mil sturdiness, but I wouldn't fold it and make a flap.

her lipsynch video is still my favorite.
