  1. I have yet to get this, but looking at eBay, it's looking like a slabbed 9.2 is in my price range...
  2. Ignore him. I too think we should have graders notes for anything under 9.8. I don't see CGC changing their procedures for that though, unfortunately.
  3. Give the recent Moon Knight series a shot. One of my favorites coming out of Marvel right now. I enjoyed Little Monsters as well, but there are few Jeff Lemire books I don't like.
  4. Ordered the virgin variant. Maybe I'll get lucky.
  5. I have so many boxes and Gemini mailers, I don't see myself ever purchasing a box. Midtown, if you're ordering a fair amount of books, have really sturdy shipping boxes.
  6. From what I understand, it was back when incentive covers were pretty new, and there were very few of these made. Still an insane price for it though, and I'd welcome any other insight.
  7. They could have come up with something much more simple and stylized, and I would have been on board. This is overwrought and silly.
  8. When did I start a debate? I put my two cents in. I've already debated with his brand of whiny Star Wars fan in the past. I have no interest in doing that again.
  9. Plenty of people put their two cents in without any interest in discussing it. I'm just tired of certain Star Wars fans acting like they speak on behalf of all fans. And I'll post what I like where I like. You're free to stop responding.
  10. Certain fans that seem to like to speak on behalf of all fans.
  11. Or I could just ignore you and enjoy what I enjoy without wasting time defending something that is entirely subjective. I'll go with that.
  12. I'm well aware of fans holding the opinion you mentioned. I give their opinion all the worth it deserves. None. And your position being sound is itself an opinion.
  13. This long-time fan enjoyed Boba Fett the way he was portrayed. This long-time fan also enjoyed "The Last Jedi". Get over it.
  14. Thank you for reminding me why I put you on ignore in the first place.
  15. Sometimes it's best to just not argue with whiny Star Wars fans who throw tantrums when characters and stories don't go their way. Lesson learned.
  16. Not inconsistent at all unless you're counting a bunch of EU books that are no longer canon.
  17. I'm not confused. You have no idea what Jabba's position entailed. Just because he chose to go down a route of crime doesn't mean Boba Fett had to, and there was nothing contradictory in how Boba Fett was portrayed.
  18. Crime lord? Not really. In fact, he was trying to weed out crime. As for getting beaten at every encounter, you seem to have watched a different show than I did. Like I said, the plot made perfect sense to me and even if you didn't like it, many others like myself did. This kind of fan baggage and presumptions as to what a character should be, particularly one that has been around for awhile, is exactly the kind of thing that turns me off discussing Star Wars with the fandom. Just negative all the time.
  19. Made perfect sense to me, and I rather enjoyed the series. Thankfully, art is entirely subjective.
  20. Boba Fett isn't watered down just because you don't like the direction Disney went with him.
  21. I hate the new logo like many others, but I understand the desire to move away from the original logo. I'm also of the opinion that if you're staying away from the book solely because of this change, then you're just being silly.
  22. Yup. Around $80 now. They were going for twice that briefly when word first got out about them.
