The Less Blob

No, keep the 10.0.

I guess everyone is too busy selling and flipping to make or post some art... I have been too busy with that and my real job(s) for sure, but anyway, here is something my talented cousin did:

$3100? You think a show makes it $5000? $10000? I understand Special edition 15 seems to make anything plausible

anyone can ask whatever they want

OK, I agree, I had never seen the inside of the book, but sellers on ebay like to pimp it. I guess it is the first "ulimate" nick fury, and we all know what the "ultimate" nick fury is supposed to look like, so....but yeah, this guy isn't even bald

Step away from the crack pipe. Step away.

yeah, ultimate team up 5 is months before ultimates 2: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Ultimate_Marvel_Team_Up_Vol_1_5 is he not referenced by name in #5? or are you picking #2 because that's where they basically admit he is a samuel jackson clone?

I thought that was an issue of ultimate team-up? It is currently a $20-25 book, give or take, in nice shape, although i am sure 9.8 copies are a ton

it is like any x-man book will always be 12th fiddle. nearly forgotten series.

I am more talking about Warner. AT&T bought Warner a few years ago for $85 billion. If they're spinning off the entertainment parts (which is most of it?) are they really getting more than that? Warner has spent the last few years seemingly destroying the DC brand. So while Warner paid nothing for the DC portion of the company years ago, AT&T paid plenty. Of course, FOx got plenty for X-Men and FF after all those disaster movies.

Did babe ruth define the dead ball era? No. He ushered in the next era. Line those guys. Except silvestri. He might have as a publisher, not as an artist.

I feel like perez is the next level only because I don't know him for being a writer too.

Hard to define an era when you become relevant toward the end of it.

Yes, they have been sold $25-35 books for a long time for nice, but not necessarily "this is a 9.6-.8" copies, so they should be $150 in this market

Ahhg, my former dollar book honey hole that maybe had 2 long boxes of $5 and up books vs. 20 longies of cheapies has now converted more than half of the former dollar boxes into $5 books. Blech! Found a few decent books, but I usually walk out with 100 or so, today it was only 16 dollar boxers, a $10 book, and 6 $5 books. It isn't that the prices were bad per se, just not enough meet on the bone.

why expensive n taxes? they're like in fire sale mode, they may be losing money. at&t and warner mess everything up.

It is going to take a long time to make back their Fox money. Disney has a $314 billion market cap. Amazon 1.6 trillion. Apple over 2 trillion (how is that possible?). If Amazon or Apple want it, Disney can't compete.

their public statements, mostly, are quite adversarial with the fans

first off, star wars was bought eons ago before either was the powrhouse they are now and Fox, at least due to x-men, etc., was worth more to disney than other companies. what does disney need another super hero universe for?

If you are not getting it free through a purchase, chances are you are not getting it. I am really ticked off because we bought two iphone 11s last year and somehow this was not included. I am not saying it is bad, i am sure it is great one of my closest friends is a writer on one of their shows), but i am not paying for it. It is the distribution method that is a failure.

That's not the one that is going belly up BTW

Solo was a bust and I thought it was not terrible, just did not live up to expectations. Force Awakens was ok. Last Jedi and the last one were bad. Rogue One was good.

wow, some of those cups are pretty obscure characters. and super stan. spidey, the thing, and the hulk each3X.

No, it will be Amazon or Apple. Although Apple TV has been a failure (the usual willingness for Apple drones to overpay for Apple products notwithstanding), Apple might want to take one last shot at content and Warner is so pathetic they'd probably dump all the DC stuff for pennies on the dollar or a crate of Iphone 13s. What a disaster of a company, at least in this area. The people overseeing the creation of content actually hate their fans, it is worse than Disney's running of the Star Wars franchise by far (Disney has just been guilty of a bunch of bad movies, they weren't vicious about it, well, I dunno, maybe Solo..). Admittedly, I don't think super heroes would really trigger anti trust concerns, but Disney taking on all of this seems a bit much unless they are getting it really cheap. I'd think Amazon could outbid and they are looking for content. True, I don't know if they are looking to make $200 million budget movies, but I bet they'd be able to figure out a way to spend $150 million to make a movie that looks like it had a $250 million budget. But I am confused, doesn't it sound like Discovery is taking a crack at this, or is this assuming Discovery will sell off this asset?: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-05-19/discovery-disca-buys-at-t-s-media-brands-to-fight-disney-dis-netflix-nflx

doesn't need to be a movie, disney+ show too... although i still haven't sold my machine man 6 and 7.... the funny thing is DC brought out practically every character arround in all of its shows, and while initially folks cared a little, mostly they stopped caring. 1st killer frost? She was a regular for 7 years on TV played by a terrific actress, etc. and yeah, the book is worth something and in 9.8 decent money, but still... firestorm 1 in 9.8 is expensive, but once you get outside of the slab a nice copy is $25-40?
