  1. Alright.. now I am looking at my own belly button and wondering where its been...
  2. To be honest. A lot of people were sceptical when you took over moderation. I know that some washed out and other saw you rise to meet the challenge. To me you have done an excellent job. I can only imagine how tough it has been especially with all of the corporate workings and SO much they continue to add to you plate. You have always tried your best to accommodate as many as possible (can't please everyone) [especially when your hands are tied in some cases. ] Thank you for what you have been able to accomplish since taking this position. Although I do miss your dogs opinion on things and being able to react to some of your posts.
  3. Pretty sure many of us got a fantasy at least quarterly from her Red Sonja.
  4. Did you read the full disclosures about participating on the CGC message boards in their Terms of service ?
  5. Considering they are not around and it wouldn't expose either of them now. You can go Flag the PM for @CGC Mike to verify it actually happened and I am sure the OP might let it count. Hopefully she was pretty or Mike will probably hate me for this one.
  6. Thank you. Although other have referred to it as Hording, Obsessive, and a myriad of other terms. I have just enjoyed the hunt and seeing all of the different cover, ways they were distributed, the whole history behind it. Every time I find something new or one I haven't seen.. (if I can afford it. ) So many obscure books I have several in my journal as I was submitting them, and in a few cases having new ones broken out added (Man of Steel Raffle Editions) but really should start taking full pictures and cataloging all of it. Instead of just old checklists I have of missing issues/ want list.
  7. It probably takes more that 10 days for @greggy to move all the boxes off of his front porch.
  8. The only times I have actually witnessed this done, was due to a dedication plaque "Acquired from the Collection of John Doe" etc. Some are willing to take less if they receive recognition for it. Please note this was not in a art or comic context, but could see this happening there as well. There was an avid collector of older planes that sold some of their pieces to an aviation museum. He sold some of them for less than he was offered by another buyer, but the museum has them on display that he can visit and has his name on them.
  9. My longest completed run would have to be My Superman Collection. Superman 200 - Current and Action Comics 300 - Current Both Direct are complete but a few away from 200 on Action and 100 on Superman This includes a TON of Variants. As in almost two complete runs of both as I started separating newsstand and went back and filled in any direct or newsstand issues I have been missing. I also have almost all DC Universe Variants , working on all Mark Jeweler's, TONS of Foreign, Whitmans, Incentives, Mail always, Give Aways, (Except Mall Variants 443 those went to Kirk) , RRPs , Sales sheets , ordering books, Ad Kits , Promotional (anything and everything) any oddities/errors , even a massive collection of books I have had signed at cons and stores over the years. (Always went back and got unsigned raws to keep the runs clean as possible) When I do complete the full newsstand runs I am really contemplating going back again to the newsstands and separating them again into CPV and making those sets. I have also finished many other runs. Wolverine to Current (Direct) almost all Variants only a few tough ones left 145 nabisco, 310 Platt (Sketch) Wolverine 1 (JSC) . Like Superman I went back with Wolverine and am working on every newsstand is for all of Wolverine as well. That is probably 80% I have MANY other runs completed and TONS that I am working on but those are currently my longest runs by far.
  10. I hope this will stay . (On a case by case basis) I fear the reason for the announcement is that it gives them hardline deniability.
