You're going to have a hard time finding people to agree that X-men Apocalypse is better than Logan. Logan was an amazing film. Oscar Isaac miiight agree with you since he played Apocalypse, but I doubt it. He has at least a few brain cells.

Post your Garage Sale/Flea Market/Antique Mall Finds Here
Real Elijah Snow replied to Shark's topic in Comics General
Right? I was about to make a joke about how he must have found his ex wife at a flea market or garage sale. Then I didn't, but if only I could. -
Moderns that are heating up on ebay!
Real Elijah Snow replied to thirdgreenham's topic in Modern Age Comic Books
Yeah, it is. I've sold probably 15-20 copies this year, BUT I HAVEN'T LOOKED AT ANY OF THEM. -

That Rai 0 he has is the only one I've ever looked at. They're all like that. That makes it 1:1. Common. Garbage. -
Need help identifying 4 pieces
Real Elijah Snow replied to Real Elijah Snow's topic in Original Comic Art
Sorry, forgot to come back to this thread after a while. I never did find the books that these came from. I did check the Spidey 2099 books you mentioned. -
What comic would you buy right now to sell in 2-3 years.
Real Elijah Snow replied to Franzese10's topic in Comics General
1) Early high grade New Warriors (if you can even find them). 2) Alf #1-47, #49-50. There's a TV show coming. 3) Mid grade 60's-80's Disney books. The market hasn't caught up to these yet. Now is the time to buy. 4) Wizard magazine (any issues, but they have to be bagged with all inserts present) Look especially for when the magazine went to a larger format. Those are lower print, and very tough to find in 7.0 NM, and impossible to find with OWW or better pages. 5) CGC 9.5's Plunk 5k on the above listed and see your money triple in 2-3 years. Being a comic investor is super easy if you know what you're doing. -
I just got a run of Ace comics starting around #130-150. What I've noticed after a little research is that there are very few of these issues slabbed. I'm not super familiar with this title, so my first assumption was that it was a title that few people cared about and that is why there are no(or few) slabs for these books. Then I looked at GPA and saw the following: #150 3.0 sale for $312 in September 2018 #148 5.0 $155 in June 2017 #147 6.0 $264 in September 2018 #146 6.5 $384 June 2018 Beyond that (ignoring a triple cover of #139 that sold in November) there are no sales of anything really after #100. Looking at the census there are no slabs for #129-138,140,141,143. The common factor that I can see with the ones that have been slabbed and ultimately sold were the ones that had the Phantom on the cover. That, however, would make me think that #143 and #145 would have been slabbed by someone at some point..But they haven't been. #143 is even the first Phantom cover of this series. I would be slabbing these for resale purposes, as I don't collect these, and I also need to make the $ back from the larger deal these came from. At a cursory glance these all look to be in the 5.0-8.0 range. Questions I have for you guys that have more knowledge on this title: 1) Are these just super hard to find? OR do they fall into the category of not enough demand to slab? 2) The Phantom is on a little circle on the cover of #140-142, so would these have more demand than the preceding 10 issues that have no Phantom on the cover at all? 3) The #130-141 have those goofy kids on the cover, but still have Phantom, Prince Valiant, Brick Bradford stories in them. Would these still be slabworthy in 6.0+ I'm looking for opinions or insight from you guys that have more experience with this title. I'm pretty stumped, so I appreciate any insight.

MCU Movie Speculation Investment
Real Elijah Snow replied to Xenosmilus's topic in Silver Age Comic Books
You may want to include the original Black Knight's first appearance instead of that TTA. Unfortunately, finding a copy is borderline impossible. -
If you change your forum name can someone else take it?
Real Elijah Snow replied to kav's topic in Comics General
Here's what I know. I changed my name from "ElijahSnow" to "comicbooksgo" for a while because I started my own site to sell books on (that never went beyond the planning stages, but I digress). When I abandoned the site I went to change it back to "Elijahsnow" , but it was unavailable. I thought that maybe during the time I was "comicbooksgo" someone else had grabbed the "Elijahsnow" name for themselves. I then went with "RealElijahsnow" as kind of a jab at whoever I thought had stolen my name (It reminded me of the whole "Ghostbusters/REAL Ghostbusters thing from the cartoons, and it made me laugh) Someone I was talking to at some point around that time told me that the user names we have used are off the table unless you contact a mod about it. I actually kind of like the "real" part of my name, so I left it. I have no idea if that answers your question. I just woke up because I was going through books until 4:30 this am. -

When will/will the WALKING DEAD bubble burst?
Real Elijah Snow replied to The-Collector's topic in Comics General
Exactly. He never died on the show. It was only implied on the actual show that he could have for one commercial break. The whole "Rick Grimes's last episodes" thing was a ruse. I called it before it aired, and was very excited to hear that Rick Grimes would continue on. The show has definitely lost viewership the last few years, but Walking Dead is not "dying". This property may not be as popular with the general public as it was a couple of years ago, but it is still a force. I'm definitely excited by the news that was outlined by Gimple on The Talking Dead. Just knowing that Rick is still alive and will still be played by Andy Lincoln going forward was probably the best news that fans of this show/comic could have gotten. -

Kidding. (mostly) It sounds to me like you just want to wash your hands of this out of frustration. If it were me I would insist on getting the book back, but do what's best for you. -

Uh...Can I pay $50 for the book and you just have him send it to me? I like extra staples. -

I paused it to write that comment. This blonde kid starts talking about Valiant too! This video is awesome. Thanks for posting! -
SDCC 1993 Footage - Comic Collector Speaks
Real Elijah Snow replied to cosmic_surfer's topic in Comics General
I'm the 3rd one interviewed in the Beavis and Butthead shirt. Ok, not really, but that kid is about the same age I was then, and he talks about Valiant and has a super sweet haircut, so it could definitely have been me. -
Clunker? That's crazy talk. This is the best cover of his run. Superman hasn't looked so powerful before or since.

I'm going to put that prelim under my pillow when I sleep tonight.

No way. I also typo'd. "It's splendor". The power of this cover made that happen. It's...just.so..beautiful...
-
No way! It's the most 90's cover ever. It's majesty is done great disservice by my flailing attempt at describing it splendor.

Greatest mullet cover of all time. I loved it so much I bought the prelim.
