  1. Is there a thread that explains the difference between this thread and the other thread?
  2. +1 I had fun watching this. My expectations were exactly what this movie was...a modern day Godzilla-esque flick. Killer CG instead of a guy in a suit mashing up a miniature city playset. Would love to see a sequel...I hope they take it up a notch. Yeah, in a sequel we need not suffer through a story. Just jump into the suits and give me two solid hours of fighting monsters.
  3. That is cool. Welcome to the club. Does this comic predate issue 1 of Spawn? "Todd McFarlane's Comic Book 'Facts & Illusions'" predates Spawn 1. I bought my copy a few weeks before Spawn 1 came out.
  4. The number of sales that are a complete waste of time far outweigh the sales with comics like these. Unless you're in the market for bread makers and overpriced "antiques." If so, you'll be happy with what you find at estate sales.
  5. Whomever owns this, I hate you. It's amazing, Matty! So much win in this. It makes me weep.
  6. I may finally go see Spider Man 2 tonight, against my better judgement.
  7. Great piece of artwork. They did a horrible job of reproducing it on the mag, though.
  8. Saw it tonight. I loved it. Sentinels were awesome. Quicksilver (whom I was ready to hate) was awesome. Everything about it was well done and can't wait to buy it on Blu-Ray. PS. I want more Quicksilver!
  9. I was a model freak when I was a kid. One of my favorite superhero kits was the Aurora Spider-Man. Thought I don't still have the model, I do still have the comic that came with it.
  10. I can't tell you how many times I read that while the record was playing.
  11. A whole lot, don't you mean "cents" hahahaha, eh But really, dryer sheets or what? I can't remember in what thread this came up but guys were talking in length about how to remove odors from books. Something about kitty litter, charcoal, and plastic tubs with tents some of some sort. I've still never done it but the techniques made sense. Sealable container large enough to hold the book. Pour in one large box of Minute Rice. Pour in one box of Arm & Hammer baking soda. Paper towel on top. Open the book and lay it on top of the paper towel with the cover up. Leave sealed for three months. Mothballs gone.
  12. Yes, yes, as a matter of fact, I have. Does that make my comment valid now? The ink on that page is horrible. Horrible.
  13. This is a straw man argument. No one who has commented here has done what you claimed. Calendar still stuck huh? Bummer. But please, enlighten me on your brilliance - name another artist people are so quick to rail against? Ramos
  14. So what determines "quality" work? Your opinion? Perfect accuracy to human anatomy? I flip through much of his work in X-Force #1 and think it's absolutely amazing. It's bold inking, it's enjoyable storytelling, it's fun action, great pacing...but no matter how clearly I point out the good or quality things, people will invariably find things to nitpick no matter what. Here's my favorite page of the book. It's a great action page, great focus on the main characters, the inking is great, it moves the story forward. But plenty of people here will likely rip it apart for the sake of ripping it apart. Great inking? Every single line on this page is the same thickness. Plus there's no black spotting. Awful. I'm just a fan artist but I know how to spot blacks. I'm confused, as I don't know any of these characters, but is Cable supposed to be the girth-iest human being on the planet? You know what they say about a girthy man. More room for pouches.

  16. Winding down after a long day. Thanks for reminding me to get to bed.
  17. You can actually as it has happened before. On that note, I would like to nominate Eric's (Hammerhead) removal from the PL. I've ask him to weigh in on the subject since he self nominated, but as the offended party I'm comfortable in him coming off the list as he has faithfully been fulfilling his commitment to repay for a consistent stretch now and I would like him to be able to sell items to further the cause if he wishes. Thanks Dave, Yup, without going into a ton of details I lost my job shortly after me and Dave had a transaction. I was really down and out for awhile and just this year I started making weekly payments....well I am still out of work but my wife is helping me clear this debt. Prior to this I have had several successful transactions...sales and purchases and when funds/time allows I would like to be able to use the marketplace forums again. Thanks Dave for being so generous and PATIENT with me, I will continue our planned payment schedule and get you payed off in no time. Thanks again for getting me removed from the list and I fully understand if we come to a bump in the road that I can be put right back on. Eric (HAMMERHEAD) Good job, Eric. I hope your situation starts to get better soon.
