 "Featuring a first-of-its kind fifth panel, this extra sheet folds out into a two-page comic spread highlighting a recreation of the 1962 cover of Amazing Fantasy #15

I don't know if i want to open it or not? I can't find the so called fifth panel. Tried looking in between the layers of the fold out panel, i don't see anything between them.

Thanks for the pics!

Maybe the website says sold out because they're not available yet....

All the websites I've read say

The item is a limited-time offering and is only available through Walmart's website beginning on Thursday, October 20th.

So I don't know how people are getting them ahead of time.

Yes.

ask him for pics if you really want to see him angry 

It's too early to be angry.

Maybe he's hangry.

Any plan that requires you to give away 1.5% of you money to access it early on a regulat basis is financial suicide. Sadly, far too many people don't understand that.

Is that a strong enough statement for you?

You seem angry.

Paying 1.5% to access your own money a day or two early is borderline stupid. In a life threatening situation, I could see a one time need, but to regularly pay to get you own money is ridiculous.

Wow. That's a strong statement. You don't know how he's using it. Sometimes speed is worth the price.

I had my account set to "Daily" payouts, but the delay came from their various stages. "Pending" took 24 hours, "Available" was another 24 hours, then they'd finally pay out but that STILL took another 24 hours to hit my checking account. Such a pain, compared to the days when Paypal was still connected to eBay, where I could have my cash a few minutes after the buyer paid. Oh well, I've gotten used to it, but I am definitely hoping this new instant pay option works out well. I guess we'll see!

I wasn't aware you could get cash that fast with paypal. That's nice.

Well, you can still use Paypal, you just can't use it for eBay sales.

What's odd is that last night I noticed that eBay is now, finally, offering on-demand payments, like I used to be able to get when Paypal was my payment processor. As most of you know, with Paypal you could have your money sent directly to your debit card in a matter of seconds; but when eBay started Managed Payments, all of it sudden it would take DAYS to get your money. First your payment was "processing", then after a day or so it would move to "Available", then the next day it would "Pay Out", and on the fourth day (if you're lucky) your money would actually appear in your bank account. Really drives me nuts.

Anyway, last night I was futzing around with the app, and noticed that they're now offering the ability to instantly dispatch funds to your debit card, for a small fee, like Paypal used to offer. This is a huge change, and hopefully a positive one. I'm still having to jump through hoops, as I had to get verified via having deposits made to my account, providing a bank statement, etc, but hopefully I'll be up and running shortly.

I haven't really used Paypal since ebay went to Managed Payments. Once in a blue moon I may sell some digital codes on the Bluray.com forums or something like that, but otherwise haven't had any need for Paypal. If this new instant pay feature on eBay works out, I will actually stop complaining about their ditching Paypal.

I just checked my records and they (ebay) have been sending a payment to my checking within 24 hours of shipment automatically. I'm pretty happy with that.

Didn't ebay kick everyone off paypal when they went to managed payments?

Greedy people.

I was captivated throughout the first three episodes, but there is definitely more action in e03. That may be where the slow build critiques come from. 

Ah thanks!

I watched the first episode last night. Liked it a lot. Some have said it was a little slow, but I didn't think so (maybe that was e02 and e03?).

I start watching this tonight. Looking forward to it.

I start the series tonight and am looking forward to it.

This is my favorite show right now! I think its much better than the reviews. Even the music is fantastic.

A very important actor. Sad to see her pass.

Buy whichever one you want. FF #52 and ASM #129 are pretty common in the 5.0 - 7.0 range.

Yes, and easily sold if you change your mind.

USPS changed the size of the boxes last Fall.  The 1092 used to fit into the 1095.  In fact, you could put a 1097 into a 1092 into a 1095.  Now the 1092 is 12" wide, and so is the 1095, making it very hard to combine.  The 1097 is just a bit smaller than the 1092, so goes into the 1095 very easily.

I have gotten shipments with the new 1092 inside the new 1095, so it can be done.  You can usually tell it was struggle to get them together.  Why fight it when you can just use the smaller 1097?

Thanks for the information. That's very useful. I just checked USPS and what you said is spot on. Both 1092 and 1095 are now 12" wide, and that changed 9/12/21. I still have some of the old stock that measure 1095 ID 12.375", 1092 OD 12.25", so I should be good for now but I'll make a note to use the 1097/1095 combo next time I order.

Agreed. 1097 inside a 1095 is the way to go!!!

I've been using the 1092 inside of a 1095. Is the 1097 better?
