Lebowski Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Seems there's a lot of refocusing going on lately... So many confused collectors Said the guy who just agreed to buy his 1st OA. I'd like to think of it (in my case anyway) less in terms of confusion, and more in terms of unburdening myself. I'm not taking on new titles to collect or changing the sort of artwork I buy, I'm just lessening the "weight." And the bucket list is still being filled out, but I can tell you one item that I'm looking forward to: skydiving! dont go killing yourself now Just figured I'd start really living, brother.

Quit that "living" right now TJ, you're making the rest of us look bad! We like living vicariously through our comics, don't you know that?

shortstack comics Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Rob Guillory is a man of genius. From his twitter... "Ya know, I just realized that so many of the problems of the comic industry would be solved if the companies actually respected the readers." "There'd be no late books. Creators would hold themselves to a higher standard, instead of just shining up a turd of a lackluster product. " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shortstack comics Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Chew #8 was GREAT stuff I loved Tony snapping and going berserk. I think it was a great character moment for him. So far in the series, he's kind of come off as somewhat of a weakling. He was always protected by Savoy or his other partners. The scene in the jail cell showed he really can whoop some azz!!!

Maybe I will have to try for an SS copy (thumbs u Edited January 29, 2010 by gaz2810i Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kathryn Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I need to give a shout out to bcruze/Bobby for the awesome freebies he just threw my way - lots of Chew, WD 61, Goon, and assorted cool books. Thanks Bobby, you're the best! Gaz - Good luck with your Art of Chew hunt. If I were you I would take Lebowski's - at this point I think they've got to mostly all be in the hands of collectors. There was a Larry's Art of Chew version, I'm getting my SS 9.8 copy shortly from GACollectibles, you might PM him and see if he has anything left. It was a very reasonable price too, I thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
