Calm down, I think you missed the part where he quoted a post where someone else said they would go to the comic store owner and "light him up". I think he was replying to that (with respect to his first line about facing criminal charges at least), not Dr.Ball's original post

That sucks balls

I liked Rorschach

Which cemetery if you know? Asking for a friend...

The planning or the value of their collection?

I've started rereading The Walking Dead since this thread started so I can prepare, I would recommend you do too

If you have an adobe creative cloud subscription, then I use the Adobe Scan app with my phone and it's able to give me decent scans (obviously this will be limited by what phone you have since its all going to be based on that phone's camera, but the app has some nice tools for taking and editing scans)

I get that but I thought you were serious about the premise. I'm sorry if I came off as attacking or "too serious" in my asking. I was just curious what would make one think that Jimenez didn't know about the Severin cover in this case, and I thought maybe it was just the "After Ross" credit without a mention of Marie, so I was curious if there was a standard for multi-level homages I wasn't aware of. But if the whole entire thing, including that part, was a joke, then that went over my head, my bad.

Why would you think that? Just because he didn't put "After Ross After Marie"? To be fair, I don't know of many "double homage" examples like this where someone recreates or homages a cover that in itself was already homaging someone else, so if that's really the standard then I would understand, but I wouldn't think thats necessary. Also, please forgive me if this sounds offensive, I mean no offense, just mentioning this since I found this a bit amusing too: I had a similar thought when I saw the thread title and the first post. I was thinking "Maybe he doesn't know about the Alex Ross cover, he might be an old timer who doesn't keep up with the million or so variant covers that come out these days" Which I thought would be completely fair, there are way too many variants nowadays

Because it's specifically a recreation after Alex Ross's homage cover. the hairstyle, the tombstone, the title crashing on his back, all from Ross' version

Jason's Quest 2 is already over!? Congrats! I can't wait for the sequel to cap off the trilogy

I haven't used them in a while but GoShippo used to offer discounted rates for Fedex https://goshippo.com/

Doozy!

If it helps, I would probably believe that R.Horie was the actual cover artist for this and Maximum Press just slapped Benes's signature on it. They were known for mislabeling covers like this. The cover to Glory #8 is known to be drawn by Ed Benes even though Maximum Press put Deodato's signature for the printed cover

You might be thinking of Mike Deodato's "Deodato Studios" which Benes and a bunch of other Brazilian artists were all part of back in those days, and a lot of times if someone from his studio worked on something the book credits would say "Deodato Studios" instead of the actual artist, and there were a few times where the book credits would just say Mike Deodato even if it was someone else from the studio. There's been multiple interviews you can search online on that subject Benes Studio didn't start until the late 2000s (2009-2010ish), and most of them didn't/don't really do any published work, they just sell pin-ups on ebay and take commissions edit: and just to be super clear, neither of them, as best I know, steal credit for the work the artists in their studio do. Even with the incidents that happened with Deodato Studios in the 90s, according to the interviews (been a while since I'd read them) Deodato never controlled how publishers would write the credits, it was more a confusion on their part/Marvel and other publishers not knowing who the specific artists were since they would hire "Deodato Studios" as an entity and not know exactly who within was given the assignment. Similar to how a lot of color work for Image, DC, and Marvel in the 90s were credited to "Wildstorm FX Studios"

Thank you in advance by the way for appreciating my post

Felix doesn't control (directly at least) what shows up on CAF Dealer Search for his website. For every dealer site integrated with CAF theres a system Bill has in place that tracks those sites and handles creating/updating those listings on CAF Classifieds/Dealer results as they change on the dealer site. The only reason you still see those pages in CAF dealer search is because they're marked as "On Hold" on Felix's site and CAF only filters out "Sold" status for search on dealer sites. These dealers integrated with CAF don't manually make and update those dealer listings on CAF, your issue is with Bill. Ask him to filter out "On Hold" too Also just to preempt this, yes Felix could change those to Sold on his site and they would get removed from CAF too, but I think its more prudent to look at the larger problem. I can't tell you how many times I found something I like on Burkey's site through CAF just to see it end up being on hold, and seeing its been "On Hold" for years. Felix at least changes his "On Hold" listings to sold after a while, I'm assuming its because the buyers still might be making payments on those

If the sale was longer than 3 months ago you won't be able to find it via Sold Results on CAT anymore without a premium membership

You can use these in your settings to filter out ebay listings with low bids, and an exclusion list to filter out by terms. Some combination of these should let you filter out NSFW images. As for "crappy commissions" I think thats too personalized, might just have to live with it unless most of what you find crappy share a same keyword or are all low bid ebay auctions

As much as I value your opinion, I think I need a professional's take on this. Paging @Dr. Balls

So it won't fit anything better than 11x17 for scanning? What about DC boards that are usually a bit bigger than 11x17, closing in on 12x18?
