  1. In their latest news release this morning this is what they specified as being suspended, In addition to the enhanced cleaning and safety protocols previously instituted, including frequent cleanings of all work areas, CGC has taken the following immediate steps: All customer drop-offs and pick-ups at its Sarasota headquarters, including the recently implemented Contactless Curbside Pick-Ups and Drop-Offs, have been suspended. Any additional employees who have been identified as being able to do a substantial portion of their work from home will be required to do so ...So I'd assume if they were suspending all submissions it would have been clearly indicated here. According to them they are still open and operating.
  2. Its confusing and people don't understand it. That's why cgc said "analyzing" in their news release. It hasn't been explained very clearly by the governor Btw, thanks for the fast press & transfer!
  3. He's not the only one being a day late and a dollar short. He inexplicably kept the beaches open as well. What a guy!
  4. The possibility of a rogue store employee having an extra sticker then sticking it on a priced copy was suggested. Maybe they were hoping someone would buy an extra container of laundry detergent? This assumes stores had to manually place the stickers on themselves?
  5. Hey thanks buddy! I think maybe the clownish way the drug dealers were drawn in #96 was marvel's attempt to dissuade young readers Especially the blonde one with the mustache. I mean c'mon...didn't he look like a real winner
  6. One of the issues that changed comics forever. G.Lantern followed
  7. Just throwing this in here to underscore what a wizard this guy is! Fast forward to the 18:00 mark when Sr. starts drawing
  8. https://www.ebay.com/itm/274316220405 The slab has a small amount of scratching on the back bottom edge not visible from the front. Otherwise its totally clear of Newton rings. Thanks for looking!
  9. Yes my bad it was Howe...goes to show how much I know about hockey.
  10. Yeah I remember seeing him on ESPN way back when he played in a game as the oldest player ever. I don't think that's why his card commands so much value. Is he considered one of the greatest or something?
  11. What is the big deal with Bobby Orr for those non hockey fans?
  12. https://www.ebay.com/itm/114067655905 Well if you didn't like the CC one I don't know if you'll like this one. You sure you don't like the CC? Looks great to me
  13. I saw a 9.2 #106 on comicconnect. I saw another on Ebay but it was coupled with a 105. Just search for "Amazing spider-man #106" itll come up on Ebay
  14. Anyone sees a picture of Stan from ~1964ish he looks a little like the father from "Father knows best"
  15. Yeah I agree with this. Our economy is so damn tough to try and game out! There are a million moving parts. ADP tries to forecast the monthly jobs numbers every month and the majority of the time they look like buffoons when the report is released. Its tough! How many people forecasted the collapse of Lehman Brothers in September 2008 which is often credited for triggering the collapse of the financial sector? Followed by Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac having to be rescued by the government? How many people predicted Europe's collapse in March of 2010 which had a definite impact on us here??? Nobody! Unfortunately we got too many predictions and not enough wisdom in the chattering class. We need more Jack Bogles and less Larry Kudlows
  16. Nah there were recession predictions going back years. People were predicting a recession resulting from a trade war and that clearly didn't happen. We've had a sustained trade war with our biggest trade partner with nothing close to a recession! Economic predictions are false like 99.9999% of the time. Never stops people from trying though. The economy is too big with too many moving parts to be predictable. If debt caused recession the 2009 recession would still be happening. There "may" have been a slowdown but nothing to merit predictions of recession If the day ever comes where we can't raise the debt ceiling however that's a different story entirely. You're talking serious doomsday ramifications at that point
  17. There was no indication whatsoever of a recession this year. The last one in 09 was so freaking horrendous that it almost ensured more than a decade of a recession free business cycle. As far as the government stepping in to stop foreclosures I hope we don't hear the hysterical tantrums that were thrown when it was done in 2009. Some commentators on financial networks in particular come to mind.
  18. It was Ditko sending a very subliminal message
  19. Anyone stuck at home here's something cool to gawk at 🧐
  20. Obviously I have free time on my hands hopefully this helps
  21. I would think even less than comics. I just stumbled upon it looking for something else. I recall when I was in elementary school there was always an ice cream truck parked outside the school end of day that would always be crowded. The kids that got there first always bought garbage pail kids. The listing I linked had 99 watchers so someone's interested
