Not A Clone

Greg is great! Great price & super fast shipping. I bought it on Monday and received it today (Thursday). Safe and sound. Will be looking to buy more for sure!

I could've told you which issue number the pages changed about a month ago, but now I forget lol. I've been re-reading through all of the Spidey books. I wanna say it happened around #400 but it was probably later. It's interesting that they picked #365 because it has the 3-D hologram and is the first appearance of 2099, which just screams Copper age And the Clone Saga hadn't started. But I think that didn't end until about 2 weeks before the Covid stuff hit

A few more came today. I noticed when I put them in the registry that the 362-363 were 65pts & the 365 was 40pts. Is that the "beginning" of modern/End of Copper?

Yeah, that's an odd one. I've always had 9.2 notes that I can remember.

First time I ever got a graders note on a 9.8. I guess just to let me know how close to a 9.9 I was .

I doubt any of those can be spared

It isn't guaranteed, but it usually results in the 9.8. For $5 it catches more of the 9.6 stuff than gets through. Different person grades it after the screening.

The exact same copy? I like that cover.

Some moderns that I just got back or finally got scanned. Both 9.6 books passed pre-screen 9.8.

I actually just re-read that part of ASM & the other books that crossed over in the Clone Saga. I enjoyed them.

From one of my favorite arcs.... Anyone know where I can find a nice #174?

My first pence! Bought it as a VG+ so it came out very nice

I guess since I accepted a prize of monetary value, I will have to forego my Senior year and declare myself eligible foe next years Professional Grading League draft.

Thanks to everyone (Bluemoon, Sckao, HumanTorch) for putting this on! Always a great time! And thanks for the slab Toro!

I see nothing!

You're welcome! Lots of reading ahead for you.

perfect timing!

This is like the NFL draft right? Champion @Azkaban picks last?

See, you weren't paying attention or just chose to ignore what doesn't fit your agenda. Of course you haven't been in that shop. They don't buy this either. Not sure where MoonKnight came into this. Must have missed a something. Whatever. Jumping out of this thread. It's really not worth the heaache. Have a good day & may you and yours stay safe! Peace!

Way to ignore 99% and twist everything. You say they have a social cause? They don't. Look, I'm not changing your mind, you won't change my mind. I would love to be wrong about what they are doing, but I've seen it. Playing the whoa is me card and act completely innocent. It's total BS because as soon as they are called out they wanna play the race card and say stupid like Angry White Males. I'm out. Stay safe.

They are doing it. They harassed DC to fire Sean Gordon Murphy because they didn't like the artist (who from all accounts is a piece of ) he chose for an independent comic. DC forced him to drop the project or lose his Batman book. They are doing this regularly. If they feel this is drek, why not just avoid it and not buy it/not support it? They have become the judge and jury for everyone.

The PMRC settled for the stickers making both sides feel like they won something. Back then, the musicians certainly won. Those PMRC stickers just pointed the kids straight to the cds or cassettes that had all those dirty words, . Those Parental Guidance stickers still exist, but I believe it just says: Warning-Explicit Lyrics. I remember a few years later when "2 Live Crew" was getting arrested on stage in Florida for playing a song that they were told they weren't allowed to play. Hard to believe that was in the 90s. Definitely not in favor of anything like that. My personal idea/solution for any books that aren't hitting decent sales numbers, but they honestly feel has potential, would be to do a monthly King Size type book, with several stories in it. Throw in a Squirrel Girl, Ms Marvel, Ghost-Spider. Now you have one book that is probably selling much much better than a bunch of books not selling at all. And I don't mean that for just the "SJW" books. Whatever makes the market healthier.

TLDR Version: I'm not a fan of this.
