You did.

But honestly, they need to drop the whole thing off of 266. His first appearance is Annual 14, and that's that. It's like the universe would collapse upon itself if that is changed.

 

With all the photos I took of Gambit in X-Men Annual #14, it's clear there was more than a cameo. It's the lack of focus on him other than background dressing that takes away from an easy agreement it is a full appearance book.

 

Meanwhile, I have them both. So it is totally okay!

 

 

With so many panels with him in, it doesn't matter to me if he's on a hamster wheel in the background. I'm just a literal person, I suppose. I see "1st appearance" as first appearance. I won't start the whole debate, but in this nugget, Hulk 180 is the first appearance of Wolverine.

Let the panic begin!

11 days?

Who's going to start the "Is the copper bubble bursting?" Thread?

People have known about Annual 14 being out first for years now and it hasn't made a dent in the popularity of 266.

 

Many people, including myself, didn't realize how much evidence stacked up in X-Men Annual #14's favor as being the actual full first appearance of Gambit until recently. Seeing the release date schedule, copyright info, and actual scans of the Gambit panels in XMA #14 show to me that a large majority in the hobby has had it wrong all these years, and are too stubborn to admit their mistake now.

 

 

 

Correcting mistakes cost money

Yes, yes, yes, and yes. Anyone have a 9.8 Annual 14 for sale?

I always had trouble finding Storm Shadow's swords, the armor of Zartan, and Spirit's eagle. Oh, and that forsaken walkie-talkie thing of Firefly's.

I'm thinking I may be sporting that 9.8 when this comes back from tan-land.

Anyone hear the news there is now a 9.9 of this book?

 

 

I ain't talkin'.

Those action figure covers are amazing. Like you could grab it and bust it open.

 

You always know how to make me laugh.

 

So glad those pesky birthday people aren't bumping threads from 2003. They can be so disruptive.

 

But the memories..

 

Isn't that Jared from Subway....?

It's his fate.

Anyone know of a good place to buy some vintage Joe MOC figures at a decent price? I'm trying to avoid eBay.

 

I don't recommend buying MOC vintage Joes if you are spending big money. I saw another one over the summer where the O-Ring or the Rubber Band connected to the O-ring snapped while still on the card.

 

Buy loose.

 

With that said, you will not find a better selection of MOC product than on eBay unless you go to Joecon. I used to buy directly from other members on Hisstank for loose Joes and things but their forums are lax and you do not often see pics in the FS threads.

Oh damn.. I've read about that. Imagine one day you wake up, have some cereal, and go to have your daily look at your high grade AFA carded collection, only to see your AFA 90 '84 Storm Shadow as a double amputee? I don't know whether or not I'd pass out, or throw a chair through a window.

Had this signed in person. Forgot to post this.

Rarest Harley Quinn comic book of all times - SCOOBY DOO TEAM UP #12 could hit $50.00 by end of day / $500.00 by end of month !!!

 

So ridiculous. This will be a 5 dollar book in a month.

 

Or less.

But it's the rarest Harley book of All-times? And you'd better hurry because there's only three and a half hours left (east coast) until the end of the day! It could be worth $50 by then.

Rescued from a dollar bin.

 

Sorry for the late reply.

 

Those colour rubs on the back will most likely get this book a 9.2/9.4.

 

Great copy by the way.

 

-J.

 

Jay underestimates.

 

If that rub at the bottom staple is the only obvious flaw this book has, you shouldn't have any problem getting a 9.6. It's not that bad, and won't look anywhere near that bad in hand. The slight rub directly to the right of the trademark line won't be very visible in hand, and the "speckling" along the spine edge are light artifacts, yes?

+1 I've even had a couple of 9.8 pressman books with the same color rub. But, he rest of the books were both close to flawless, so it is technically possible, but unlikely. Being a black cover hurts though; so I agree with RMA's assumption.

 

They must have loved reprinting 21 in different countries; no translation needed!

 

I've always thought the same thing.

I have a first and third print but yet to ever lay my eyes/hands on a second print.

That's a mighty fine newsstand firsts print you have there. The mysterious 2nd print thing is a good discussion to bring here. Has anyone found out anymore info on it, or if it even exists?

I had to fix all the keyboard keys with toenail clippings at some point. And I lost my wife and kids, and my Great Dane died months ago from dehydration. This guy had better deliver!

Just got this in

 

That's one of the nicest VG's I've ever seen.

Here. Let you two focus on this one too.

 

 

The Turbo-nator!

Sorry Bosco.

Any movie with Sinbad automatically gets four stars. Especially, if his character is a crazed mail carrier.

'Dems dah rulez.

Thanks for playin'.

Uck. Looks like his floppy red dong is wrapped tightly in the spandex pants.

This was either the third or fourth book given the 9.8 grade if I recall. I asked if Hama would do the head sketch to make it unique among signed copies. (thumbs u

 

Surely there must be copies in people's collections to show? (Insert Airplane! joke)

Renegar silver foil variants also welcome.

And Silent Master.. Wherefore out thou?
