  1. A lot of good finds. They must have purchased a few collections at garage sales or something.... The Daredevil and X-Men are reprints.... edit - Forgot about these....
  2. True.... I mean who drinks coffee.... Seriously, I went to Wiki and well.... I get the dollar bin....
  3. I got this about 2 weeks ago.... The went fast at the store I usually go to.
  4. TNG Romulan D'deridex Class Warbird Original Series Starfleet Enterprise Original Series Klingon D7 Battlecruiser These were all free 3D models so not perfect and required a little bit of reworking of textures and parts.... The Warbird, which ushered in the phrase "How can we be of help?".... probably needed the most as nothing seemed to line up. It's pretty much a compromise of several models and textures... The Enterprise was pretty complete, but I wanted to get away from the lack of detail on the TV series model (due to series budget limitations as I understand) and add some details, better skin, running lights, etc.... Same with the Klingon D7 Battlecruiser, I added some lights for effect and changed skin color.... It's actually closer to the D7 from the TNG episode where they go back in time....
  5. Nice solution for multiple books! Looks great!
  6. Thanks. I think the only thing I might do it is change the glass to UV. It's in a non direct light spot so it's not must I don't think.
  7. In looking at framing solutions for slabs, It seems like everything was on the $40 and up range. I found 1 for $20 but it was plastic and didn't have a front pane. It was simply a wrap around.... So, at the frame store, I found these 1.75 in box frames and had the store cut several mats to fit the slab.... The first mat, which is against the glass is cut like a typical mat, a little smaller than the image/slab so the slab sits behind it. The second mat is cut so the slab sits in it. This mat has foam core glued to the back to build a "box" which holds the slab snug, but not too snug that it can't be swapped out. Lastly, there is a foam core backing which builds it out to the back of the frame.... This may not be needed depending on the thickness of the frame. I originally had white backing behind the slab and changed that to black. All done, the cost was $20.00. I used my own mats so that would be an additional charge if someone were to do this and did not have the supplies. Technically, you don't even need the additonal mats, you could glue the foam core frame to the front mat and build foam core spacers to create snug fit for the mat between the glass and back of the frame.
  8. As someone who has all the Marvel Micronauts plus the X-Men team up mini series, 1 and 8 are pretty much it....
  9. Yes Jasmine Putri will do the regular cover and then there will be some custom variants.... so....
  10. Am I reading this right? 10,000 copies of each so 30,000 copies of this 1 shot?.... "Each Punchline Special #1 Team Variant cover will have a limited print run set at a maximum of 10,000 copies. Written by James Tynion IV and Sam Johns with art by Mirka Andolfo, it is scheduled to arrive in stores on November 10th." BTW, if Mirka is doing the story art, this is going to awesome. https://bleedingcool.com/comics/peach-momoko-derrick-chew-kael-ngu-do-limited-punchline-variants/
  11. This would be great to see as a TV series.... Was intrigued by the cover. Know nothing about the story.... The review read more like a sales pitch so we'll see.... . I love the cover, but not sure how long this will stay with me. Bought purely because of Spider-Woman. Hope the story is good....
  12. Yep. I had a place that was literally across the street.... a thrift/antique kind of place..... The toy area had tons of comics.... It's all but dried up now.... Lots of comics, but nothing of real value that's worth the pick anymore.... The actual LCS have thinned the herd a bit too. There's a few I go to that "have everything", but it's all high retail as they have the space to just let it sit in a box....
  13. I like it.... A lot.... Something to consider.... While in the LCS, this was sitting on the shelf.... Now to find a spot on the wall for it.... Probably one of the frames I rotate regularly....
  14. This Dark Horse Predator Comic states "First Print" inside
  15. Here's an example of the previously mentioned upc The Amazing Spider-Man is a first print 00111 The DCEASED Dead Planet is a fouth print 00114
  16. Ahh. Gotcha.... I just ordered the Punchline and Blade Runner.... I really want the Red Sonja.... Maybe....
  17. Explain the confusion?.... I love her work but I can't buy everything....
