  1. This auction has a ton of Star Wars and other stuff from her career, as well as stuff of her mothers. Not my auction, just posted for the Star Wars fans among us. https://mcmanusauctions.hibid.com/catalog/123153/2-11-18-celebrity-estate-carrie-fisher-debbi-reynolds/
  2. Collecting is like owning a time machine. Some books bring you back to a pleasant moment in the past, and after what seems like twenty minutes ends up being four hours in real time. Planning on sticking around for awhile, Jim? The place could use you.
  3. I saw this in a Naval hospital theatre. Crowd was mostly enlisted guys, many recovering from wounds in SE Asia. For some reason, people applauded the first time Newman, McQueen and a few others appeared. Place went nuts when OJ first popped up.
  4. I think that was a problem with this movie, and others from the period. So many stars, all needing screen time. You end up with too many plot digressions that do nothing for the story. The real attraction was the fire, which was well beyond state of the art.
  5. DC SA has hundreds of issues. Are you saying the Atlas pre-hero books aren't Silver?
  6. When was this? I'd heard the kid from the last Conan movie and Disney's "Kicking It" was pushing for a tv show with Conan as an 18-19 year old. Is this it ,perchance?
  7. What is the point of a Mylar bag as opposed to the other bags available at a fraction of the cost?
  8. I don't know him, but certainly will include him in my thoughts and prayers.
  9. Aren't Australian versions a different size than the U.S. versions?
  10. It tuned out that the GEM cards were printed on the wrong stock paper so that the images were off. They faded away pretty quick. Some stores had brought a lot of them so they had them in stock longer than places who only bought a few, thinking they could get more.
  11. Issue 102. I think 12 cent and 15 cent books are Silver. To me, the one month Marvel 25 cent books are the beginning of the BA.
  12. I do admire Sentry's propensity for throwing evil doers into the sun. Best signature move on the circuit
  13. Aren't Thor's powers magical? The Supes I used to know wasn't so omnipotent against magic.
  14. CCG is headquartered in a 60,000-square-foot facility in Sarasota, Florida, USA. In addition to its London office, it has offices in Munich, Shanghai and Hong Kong, as well as 14 Official Submission Centers in cities around the world Can someone explain that last part about the 14 OSCs?
  15. Originally, she was a younger version from Earth 2. These days, who knows. She might be a clone from Earth 25467 today. Tomorrow, she'll get a new origin.
  16. I had no idea Beetle started out as a civilian and it evolved into an Army strip. Loved the cartoons back when I was a rug crawler. RIP
  17. Wonder Man. Tough as anyone in the universe but he knows he was dead for all those years. A reluctant hero, he's evidently color blind if you look at the outfits he has worn over the years. He's been around for close to forty years, after being dead for ten, yet he is still an enigma.
  18. Half the population might disagree with that.
  19. That sucks, but rent increases had best be built into your business plan and budget. Tell him to come west.
  20. I think it might be a shilling, but its definitely a UK edition.
  21. My friends once worked at Jekyll and Hyde's, where they had an endless loop of a Disney satire called Its A Ghoul World After Al playing fairly loud.
  22. In the future, take detailed photos of the book before you surrender it to their care. I'd think they would take responsibility for damage caused while in their care, if it is properly documented. Also,next time, leave the book inside a mylar and only cut out the area where you want it signed. BTW- Remove the comic after marking where the bag is to be cut.
  23. Its your book. Have whomever you want sketch it. If the artist works for DC and has no problem sketching a Marvel character, who exactly is going to frown upon it?
