  1. I posted this in the GA forum last week after spotting a comic in the HBO mini-series "The Pacific"
  2. The narrator sounds like Ed Norton. I was waiting for him to not talk about Fight Club.
  3. The teacher/chaperone in the white pants looks like she might of been a fox.
  4. Billy, you know you will always have first crack at this book. I hope sooner then later we both have one. It's always been one of my favorites, and this one's been in my collection longer then any other book I currently have. The PQ is a bit of a bummer, but there aren't a lot of these to choose from, and this one presents pretty nicely.
  5. Nice stuff Andre. That 28 is really sharp.
  6. The description was something like "overall fine with a minor spine split" So I was expecting no better than VG as a technical grade, and there was definitely some risk involved, but I think it turned out ok.
  7. Thanks folks. No hurry to get it slabbed. I'll enjoy it a bit first. I have a 5.0 #30 so just nine more issues and a bazillion more dollars to complete the pre-Robin set.
  8. I don't often post my acquisitions, but I'm pretty thrilled to get this one. My best and first serious catch of the year so far.. I thought I had been outbid on this by $1 as I watched it end, but it turned out that I won. I think for practical purposes they rounded my bid up $1. The book is in better shape then I let myself expect. It had been mentioned that the spine split was about two inches but is really only about 3/4" and doesn't reach the top staple or the top of the book. The PQ isn't stellar, but isn't brittle at all. There is some tanning of the interior cover edges, but overall it's a pretty solid copy. Plenty good enough for me.
  9. Damn George. I slept right through the bidding on the BT (head cold) and was not happy that I did. I'm glad someone I like won it. Please let me be first in line for it if you decide to sell. Heck if you want to make a profit right now, let me know. I have a 5.0 I can send over if you really need a copy. I was watching (and bidding) on that Exciting #9 also of course, great book. Again, I'm glad it went to a well respected boardie.
  10. Obviously not a comic, but I found this at a flee market this weekend and couldn't pass it up. A little big for the scanner so it cut off a little of the art.
  11. I'll have theses available sometime this weekend with scans and prices and offered here on the boards first.

  12. It appears as though the OP may not even know all of this discussion went on in the thread.
  13. You were probably just being snarky. Oh, sorry about the jinx smackdown I put on the horns last night. I think you just moved to the front of the Bedrock groin punch line.
  14. off. Is that considered contributing in a positive manner? If so, off and yo' mama can off too.
  15. Well, this obviously gets a thumbs up from me. Three Exciting #9s.
