  1. Yep, I'm VERY excited for it Even though they made a poster with it, I believe the "Of the Dead" title is just a temporary working title and will probably change. I haven't heard anything about a release date yet, but hopefully there will be some more news soon There are some more pics and info here: http://blog.movieset.com/2008/11/07/exclusive-romero-poster-and-images-from-afm/ the premiss reminds me of Herschel keeping all those dead in his barn. looks pretty good though.
  2. nah, gonna stick with Invincible, Bone, RASL and ultra-HG moderns... deciding between black terror, project superpowers and goon as my next 'project' is RASL good? how far along is it?
  3. pretty steady rise in sales. amazing how few early issues sold.
  4. i've seen that but for some reason Amazon is showing this for Vol. 3
  5. anyone know why the hardcover for Vol. 2 & 3 have the same cover except different color?
  6. my wife bought me the hardcovers for Christmas so i started from the beginning. first let me say it's just as good the second time around. also it's cool to go back and see how many really close calls Rick had right from the start with the zombies. when he first opens the door to the cafeteria and wrestles down the stairs with one of them it was so close to being over before it even began.
  7. HOM 224 thats right. and i have a copy HOM 224 along with Batman 238 and the other wrap around, (not the Superman one) one by Adams thats similar to Batman 238 are my 3 favorite 100 pagers. i'm still looking for a nice whatever the other one is.
  8. is Witching hour 38 the one with the purple cover? if so it's in my top 3 100 pagers
  9. cool thread idea (thumbs u i'll give it a try born october 12, 1970 same time this book was on the stands. my introduction into comic books was in 1976. a friend of mine Nick and his older brothers collected back issue and a guy named Jack who was maybe 10 years older then me lived a few houses the opposite direction. Nick and his brothers had a few hundred Marvels from the 60's. i can't remember what condition they we're in. i do remember they we're completely raw, no bags or boards. i remember lots of Iron Man books, lots of FF books, Avengers and Hulks. immediately i thought they we're very cool. Jack was 16, 17, 19? something like that. his mother would watch me every once in a while if my mother needed to run out for something. she took me into his room one day and opened his closet. there we're multiple trunks full of comics. boxes stacked on top of even more boxes full of comics. they we're overflowing out of the boxes onto the shelves in his closet. but what really struck me about his collection was how perfectly organized the comics we're. at that time i had never seen anything like it. everything was doubled boarded and bagged. everything was in alphabetical order and numeric order. he had many doubles, and from what i recall the books we're in extremely nice condition. basically i have been chasing his collection all these years. there had been many years without buying a single book . i was in my early 20's when started working and making some cash. i began buying books form local comic shops like Barbarian Book Shop in Wheaton, MD and local Hotel cons. but it was slow going. then there was eBay. i was amazed at how many books you could find with eBay. my first ever online eBay purchase was an Iron Man #4. i was hooked until i found this place and i went into overdrive. in the end i would say my collection is about 6 books shy of my old friend Jacks collection.
  10. i had to post the note that came with the book. from a guy who without a doubt truly loves his comics and this hobby. thanks again Green
