Real Elijah Snow

It's crazy to think that at one point we had a weekly comics magazine. I used to read it cover to cover as well. 

He'll definitely revisit it at some point. The things that were set up in this last issue combined with the movie makes it a definite. 

Biz is such a cool dude. He can be a bit tough to understand depending on his level of toxicity, but I can't think of another creator who is more like the character they're most associated with. 

They consistently under grade consignment items. I have no idea about their own stock, but I consign a lot, and nearly everything is off of CGC standards by at least a point. I've subbed 100-200 books a month for many years, and I know CGC standards pretty well. On moderns, a MCS VF is probably a CGC 9.4, and I'm not kidding. Silver age? If the book gets a grade of "fine" from MCS expect a 7.0-9.0 from CGC without a press. The people that know this buy consignment books in the 6.0-7.0 range and get books that are way better than described all. the. time.  I can't speak on their own stock because I don't buy books from them, but I've been consigning for a long time. I've gotten used to it, and I guess a lot of the repeat buyers are aware of it too because books keep selling.  MCS consignment 7.0 > Random Ebay guy's NM all day long. 

That looks a lot better than a 3.5, so maybe they just knocked it down for the trimming and kept the blue label...

How does rocket science work? Who does rocket science work for?

I always think "Cupcake" when I see the name "Dupcak."

Dude! I've always thought that.

Near the end of the day too. Of course, the boxes were on the floor and we know how you're laziness creeps in under those circumstances........

Truer words...I've been running out of time at Rick and Dave's pretty much every show the last year, and I doubt I even got to that particular dealer. . I'm going to need to drink some more redbull or something.

Found a lot of good stuff in $1 boxes Sunday, but these were a few of the first timers that I had never found in cheap boxes before. 

 

Whuuuuh??? I must have been taking a nap. 

Obviously had the character's civilian name been memorable to me then it would have. The character in the comic wasn't ever an ex military buddy of Frank's.

If you don't want spoilers for recent or upcoming character appearances in movies and/or TV, I don't know what you're doing reading any of the "heating up" threads.

Agh. I see your point I guess. 

I'm just anti-spoiler for the most part, and they're usually fairly avoidable. This instance it's not something that's been advertised and had until that point been something I hadn't really thought about. If Jigsaw had popped up as Jigsaw in the early episodes it wouldn't have really mattered as much. It's more that I feel like the cool twist of the character reveal is ruined now, and it's just weak sauce to me. It seems obvious now, but it would have been nice to have gotten to see it on the screen rather than have it ruined in a comic thread. It's more that a plot twist is being spoiled and less that a character making an appearance was spoiled. That's the distinction for me.  A spoiler tag would have been appropriate. It's a fairly long first season, and it hasn't been out that long, so a little consideration on that front would have been cool.

Thanks for the spoiler. Appreciate that. 

Wow. I'm really appreciative as well. I'm just a few episodes from the end too. I have a new least favorite board member. 

Mystery solved  

Wow. That's about the most detailed response I could have hoped for. Thanks so very much!!

Wasn't sure where to put this...I've tried to look up what these might be worth. It's apparently a box with a bunch of little boxes with these little figures in it. 

Mystery museum series 2 set by Medicomtoy

On Ebay it looks like people break these out of the big box and sell the individuals. 

Any help is appreciated, as I'm about to pull my hair out trying to figure out value.

If you can find me another #7 & #44 for under $30 I'll gladly buy.

I'd honestly say check out mcs's weekly auctions. They criminally under grade auction lots, and also no one bids. It's a recipe for success  

Look how much heat these early Invincible issues are generating.

Curious to know if the owner of the piece is entitled to some compensation if it's used for a trade cover.  Does Gabs have the final say on that etc etc?  It would be cool if the owner of this piece was awarded something.

 

Anyone have experience with that?

I think the owner of any commission piece is lucky as a pig in poop if said commission gets used for a cover. $$$
