  1. KnightQuest: The Crusade was pretty bad, unless you really like the Bat-Punisher (I actually liked Azrael... just not as Batman). KnightQuest: The Search (focusing on Bruce) was more interesting. KnightsEnd was good.
  2. Kudos to october and moloch for quick payments (and for actually buying from my pathetic sales thread).
  3. But was that answer right? Where's the THE_BEYONDER? Jack No. The correct answer is (Peter Parker, the) Spectacular Spider-Man 27, correctly answered by you.
  4. Responding to somebody whenever they post with something that is unrelated to their post and/or the thread is called trolling and is explicitly against the rules.
  5. That would explain why the characters seem to be in alphabetical groupings.
  6. Uh, no - it's the Forum's list . . . YOU just happen to be on it Even a name change won't help you. Actually, I think his continued presence devalues the list. This thread has over 10000 views, which means nearly everybody who buys or sells here has likely seen it. We have both sides of the story (which are nearly the same) and neither of you wants to complete the transaction or have anything to do with the other. It just seems spiteful of you to continue to include him on a list of people who may be risky to deal with. He may have done something less than ideal, but does his name being on the list really benefit other board members? That is the point of this thread, right?
  7. It depends on how you define completist. In general I would say no, as there are few complete series I'm truly interested in. But I am working on many short(-ish) runs.
  8. Kudos to sd2416 for 2 shortboxes of sweet moderns (and a bit of bronze/copper). I just wish there had been more stuff from my want list offered (but my wallet is thankful there wasn't ). Kudos to Wrightson fan for some Hulks, UXMs and JLAs. Tightly graded and well packaged.
  9. The thread works! I have also bought from Ed once and had no problems.
  10. Actually, "free shipping" usually means free shipping in the U.S. -- at least if it involves more than a few comics -- and there are many Canadians here. I understand this perfectly well and have no problem with paying a fair shipping price, but still find it kind of annoying to see those two little words that don't really mean what they say.
  11. Kudos to deamentia for great communication and fast payment! Good luck with the rest of the run!
  12. Here's my take on announing sales. While I would love to know exactly when something I want is going to be available, it's just a dream. Announcements aren't going to help most people much anyway because it's still first come, first served with Mr. ruling all. I don't have a problem with somebody starting a thread with the initial post just stating their sale terms (payments, shipping, etc.) and giving a general description of what they'll be selling if they're going to start posting the books shortly (like within the hour). I also don't have a problem with the first post only containing a few books even if the seller intends to list 1000 more. There are no guidelines for how many books can be listed in a single post and different people use different formats. Posting a thread, or responses in a thread, that contains nothing for sale (whether nothing has been posted for sale or everything has been sold) takes up space and helps bump other threads off the first page. The only exception to this is the Probation thread, which (sadly) is needed and has no other appropriate place.
  13. My room is my comic room. Here is the shelving unit in my closet with its guardian. In addition to her guard duties, she helps test polybag strength. So far, none have passed the test. I have 2 more of those shelving units but no real display.
  14. Also reprinted in colour in Wrath of the Spectre 4
  15. I think just having a comic room makes it not inadequate. It's much better than having stuff piled all over the place. I should know (but at least I got some shelving units at the start of this year).
  16. Kudos to Mikeyriffhard for another great transaction! Great communication, nice packaging and a great deal on a pile of "modern drek" Superman (and some Batman) comics.
  17. See greggy's post count. Post counts really don't matter to me. They are rarely a good indicator of the quality of the poster's character. The only reason my post count would matter to me is if I were selling in the Marketplace and people were avoiding me due to my low(-ish) post count rather than my poor merchandise and high prices.
