  1. Sounds like a dinner get together is in order! I elect @BladeTX as tribute for the crash pad.....
  2. Yep I got one too. Geiger is a good read but a GitD cover is what I am talking about!
  3. It is the start of a story arc and has new connecting covers. It actually makes sense to me.
  4. @StephenWA There is a new Gold Foil out today, 1 per store Thank You variant for WDD 13.
  5. So at least the discount will apply until you renew but removing it from the tiers below the $300 mark is sad indeed. I can say I am absolutely not in favor of these changes.
  6. Check your spam folder. For whatever reason all Skybound emails go to my spam folder, I knew it so I check it often enough. If you created a skybound account you can check there as well by logging into the store and going to your orders it will show as either fulfilled or unfulfilled.
  7. Couple new foils coming on Friday for Comics Vault Live with @bigclutch Nifty since the B&W is a new version of it! Wonder if 2nd print #2 will be on CVL Season 2 Episode 5 then?
  8. That is awesome. Side note, here is my Attack Peter print #5 of 85! And my slabbed 9.8 with the same cover is due in Wednesday.
  9. Just basing this on the signatures themselves and the names attached to the books.The top one could be Andrew Covalt? And the bottom could be Sam Liu?
  10. Jetpack's last Bad Idea updates on their site - It appears they are still allowing "pre-orders" of Tankers #1 and Eniac #2 though. On each individual page it states depending on when order is placed and supply available it could be a N1P if that is all they have to provide.
  11. air has moisture, you do not want to create a sealed chamber where condensation may occur due to temperature/pressure changes the properties of paper are also relevant I believe but beyond my pay grade here Bird is spot on. You do not want it to be air tight because of this, as well as the paper will give off gases as it ages. This is a standard part of time, it is essentially decomposing. While the slabbing slows it, it will not completely halt the process. If you trapped the gases the paper is releasing in with the book it would speed up the decomposition, if I am off on this and someone has a better reason feel free to correct me (but this is my understanding). So instead the slab allows for the gases to be released.
  12. His name is humpty, pronounced with am uuuuuumpteeeee?
  13. You should be more active on FB, then you could get invites into the cool kids group where we talk about stuff like this ALL DAY LONG.
  14. Alan has been doing some more really nice covers and is now doing Marvel covers too. He did an Alien, has a Spider-Man:Spider's Shadow coming and recently revealed (pre-orderable) Marvels covers. He also had a cover of an original character MechaGirl for Fantasia #3 out of Malyasia.
  15. This just went live at ComicBlend, it is a silver foil variant of 2nd print #5.
  16. I have found a really good shop to order my Bad Idea books from, now the pin fiasco that is a whole other level of crazy. People get burned easily and not getting what they want is one way. "Trying" to prevent mass flipping is all this seems. But in a way it also seems like forced demand. I cannot get in my car and drive up to a LCS and get a copy of anything Bad Idea (within reason). I have to instead rely on a shop a thousand+ miles away. Does that bother me? Absolutely. But I have found a amicable way around it and I have nothing but great things to say about this shop and how they are handling me, the little few book order I am. The FP/NFP only happened thus far with Eniac #1, my understanding it was due to the gloss coating and how long it took to cure. They had what they printed of 1P ready to go but it didn't meet their demand. So the N1P that were also ready were combined and shipped together to attempt to meet some similarity of demand.
  17. While I agree, the company made rules and they will absolutely enforce them. With that proper review will need to be done. I know they booted at least 1 store for up charging for Eniac #1 1st printings on release.
  18. The dude lives through insane body punishment, what is not superhuman about that? It is essentially Punisher meets Wolverine with Keanu Reaves but minus the adamantium (not to be confused with @ADAMANTIUM) and claws.
  19. Says the guy that just bought BZRKR #1 2nd print without any recommendations from anyone.
  20. Man a year difference and I am nearly 4 times your post count......
