  1. From ebay, and yes I had to pay for this one, but I absolutely LOVE this cover. One of my favorite Dell covers!
  2. I know there are a lot of "ebay haters" on the boards but there are still deals to be had. Sweet book and yes it is as good as it looks for less than $20. Only ding is at the angry father's elbow & the BLC.
  3. Got a very nice group of Bronze DC horror from Cristian. Spot-on grading and super-fast shipping. Perfect transaction!

    Great group of bronze age odd ball books arrived today. Perfect grading, well packaged and fast shipping! Thanks Ed!
  6. Got a great group of Hulk & Fantastic Four books from Patrick today. As usual, spot-on grading and well-packaged, super-fast shipping! Stellar transaction! Thanks Patrick!
  7. I was not aware that David Eddings passed away! What a wonderful storyteller he was and what a loss at his passing. I've read the Belgriad/Mallorean series so many times that Belgarath & Polgara seem like old friends. Just a fantastic series of books. You were very lucky to meet the man before his passing!
  8. Thanks for pointing this book out, it sounds right up my alley and I just ordered it from Amazon. I just finished up the latest George R.R. Martin book from the Game of Thrones series, Dance With Dragons. I know many have disparaged the book, but I loved it and just hope that I don't have to wait another 5 years for the next. Question about that series...I've watched the HBO show, but never read the books. Since I;ve seen the show, is it still worth the read? I'm going to the beach in a few weeks and am going to need something to read. Most certainly. The series is very faithful to the books, but Martin gets you inside of the character's head, something you just cannot do on television. Go into the book series thinking of the show as a companion to the books and I think you'll be very satisfied. Martin's books are not exactly easy reading, but in the end you are very satisfied. Think of the books as a thick, juicy steak and the HBO series as the double-chocolate lava cake for dessert! Let me know how you like it when you are done.

  10. Bought several bronze Marvels from Bob last month. I've said it before, but Bob is just about the most consistant grader on the boards and this batch is no exception. Perfect transaction.
  11. Got a batch of Hulks last month, great transaction all around. Accurate grading, well packaged and quickly shipped.
  12. Got a couple of great Thor books safe and sound in the mail. Perfect transaction!
  13. Everything good in my transaction! Books were great, packing was great and they were shipped blazing fast.
  14. excellent, and this one is (thumbs u Top census and the only one!
  15. Awsome book! I'm big on sig books, but that's one I'd take over any of the big-name mainstream artists. The guy is nutty as a fruitcake, but damn can he draw!
  16. Just got another great book from Bill and as usual everything was perfect!
  17. Best of luck! Those are some great books, but they were so big and moved so slowly that I wound up having to give them up. Actually, I took a break after finishing the second or third one, then when I went back I couldn't remember everything being referenced and got turned off. If you just plow through it all I'm sure you'll be in love. So far, I'm loving these books. The series starts Sunday on HBO. My wife is pissed since I added HBO to our cable package just for this series. Some of the finest fantasty I've ever read and well worth the journey to the end! Tyrion is one of the great characters in fantasy as well as his brother the Kingslayer. Savor these books Diggler since Martin can't seem to write one without several years going by. By the way, the next one comes out in July.
  18. Just got a batch of books in from Bill. All around perfect deal, spot-on grading, very well packaged and fast shipping!
  19. Plus many more great Bronze Age books from Dale!
