  1. Mile High has no listings for issues 10 or 11 (Whitman versions). Where have you seen pictures?
  2. No, they didn't. They really, really didn't. You should stick to being... yourself. Because you sure aren't good at anything else. Anyway, aren't you supposed to be defending CGC? Isn't this the best decision in the history of the world? If you don't like what they're doing, why are you here?
  3. Some people are here because they blindly love CGC. Some people are here because they like and use CGC, but still have problems with some of the stupid things they do. Some people are just here because this is the best comic book message board (because of the members, not the company).
  4. Normal (but not super-common) production error. Inserts get missed sometimes.
  5. What's wild about that? It's a hype site, not any kind of authority.
  6. When has anyone ever argued or even suggested that entities with too much power never abuse it? BTW, unprecedented events happen regularly, whether you are aware of them or not.
  7. In theory, your advice is good. In reality, we can save him time by saying it won't qualify for a free reholder, nor will there be any guarantee that it will come back any better if it's sent in anyway. For the OP, it has nothing to do with the issue or any variant and you should check out this thread.
  8. I can't agree with the garbage part, but neither can I disagree with the overrated part.
  9. There was a lot of boring drek in the title for years before he started. Yeah, that's an interesting take since Miller literally saved Daredevil from cancellation.
  10. Okay. I was pretty sure you were just railing against manufactured collectibles.
  11. So you were specifically talking about comics and are saying that issues like ASM 252 are not worth owning?
  12. I don't think anyone really disputes that. Yeah, the only thing I would change about that post is that the cartoon did that and the Archie series that was adapted from the cartoon (however loosely) only slightly assisted in that. TMNT did have an impact on the industry and hobby, but the cartoon had a much wider reach than an independent comic.
  13. He thinks Newsstands are special just because he grew up in the dumbest place on Earth, where somebody insanely put the spinner rack near produce misters. Never mind the fact that there are many Newsstands that had an existence that makes his extremely overly-idealized description of Directs look like hell.
  14. Sure, comics not being available everywhere doesn't help the industry, but the comparison that was made still isn't valid. Publishers didn't choose to make comics less available, retailers and distributors did.
  15. It didn't, nor was organized crime the sole source of unsold Newsstands.
  16. Not very. Certainly not even close to what some people claim.
  17. That's not what I asked. I was wondering if broadcast boxing viewership was falling at the same rate as comic sales, before PPV and the rise of the direct market.
