Carnage #6 caught my eye a week or 2 ago. Nothing crazy but it is slowly moving up in value. Maybe it keeps on going or maybe it crashes down. Either way, great looking cover.

 

Referring to the 1:15 LIM Variant I assume. Yeah, I picked it up on cover alone.

 

That would be the one. (thumbs u

I'm just sad no one got my Limp Bizkit reference a few pages back. :sorry:

 

I think people didn't want to admit that they listened to Limp Bizkit.

 

I once hung out with the drummer from Limp Bizkit and comic book artist Tone Rodriguez. It was a crazy night. Need to look in to what ever happened to Tone Rodriguez. Loved Violent Messiahs.

 

Me too. What If? ... Spawn wore a suit... lol

 

It really was a good story and the art/colors worked perfectly together imo. (thumbs u

I'm still waiting for "Escape From Jesus Island" to go nuke

 

is this a euphemism for the presidential nominee process?

 

I know, no politics.

 

But it would be a funny name for Steven Colbert book about this year right?

The old Mad Maxx or the new one? Because the new one is a wimp compared to the original. 2c

Nice looking variant. And as a bonus the Carnage book has been pretty decent read too.

Nevertheless, quite accurate.

 

:popcorn:

 

 

I thought you had your own thread to play in now?

 

I'm sorry, you are who, exactly.....?

 

:shrug:

 

Someone who actually posts Moderns that are heating up on ebay in the Moderns that are heating up on ebay thread.

Novel idea, wouldn't you say?

 

"What I post rules, what you post sucks."

 

How about you worry about what you post, and let others worry about what they post, and if you think there's a problem, take it to the mods and leave it with them.

 

Problem solved.

 

Huh? Some people actually like to enter into a thread and read about the said subject.

Pretty telling of why you post in threads.

The Gwenom cover illustrates the depth of knowledge of most modern buyers.

Robbie mentioned in an interview last year that Gwenom was coming, savvy modern speculators bought in then....

 

Watch Saturday.

DC will announce formally that Rebirth spins out of Darkseid War, even though the info is out there informally.

 

Jusstice League #40-48 will go nuclear then.

Not today.

Saturday.

 

It's fun to heard the sheep.

 

 

Well, you have this all figured out then....except people don't speculate on comics because of story anymore, it's all about covers and 1st appearances.

 

Isnt JL 40 the first Grail?

 

Yes, but that was not the point he was making. When I tried to coax that 1st appearance out of him, hell fell flat on his face.

 

You're joking, right?

Gotta be...

 

I was simply pointing out to the board, that in my opinion Darkseid War is going to follow a similar pattern as Guillory's Gwenom cover.

 

You had to show off your big brain with a condescending remark that I was off base.

 

I Instantly posted one cover & derailed your argument:

Well, you have this all figured out then....except people don't speculate on comics because of story anymore, it's all about covers and 1st appearances.

 

Now everybody please laugh at the Crybaby.

 

Anyway.

 

Let's see how it shakes out....

 

 

Bait. Taunt. Troll.

 

 

Let me map this out for you. You said you knew about Gwenom last year and refernced an interview but no link. Then you laid out the Darkseid story arc.

. It's about cover art and first appearances. I then gave you a chance to post the 1st appearance that is featured in the story arc to which you posted a cover of a single issue and then listed the 40-48 story arc again of the JuSStice League as going "nuclear".

You could have just said, hey this one issue right here.

 

Hooooo boy,

 

All this Ball busting on "Batman vs Superman Day"

 

Let me map this out for YOU.

 

I posted in this thread because Gwenom was one of THE hottest books on the market yesterday. Wasn't just me that knew Gwenom was coming, it was anybody that follows Robbie via Twitter or Facebook. It's old news.

Somehow paired with his retirement it blew up now. A $5 book became a "thing"

Here's an IGN link from ages ago...

http://bamsmackpow.com/2015/06/23/spider-gwen-returns-after-secret-wars-with-latour-rodriguez/

 

I simply replied that people don't buy story arc's anymore

 

Really?

I think you need to use your words like a big boy.

Pretty sure you mean that people don't speculate on story arc's anymore.

 

Because, I can assure you. Fans buy story arc's that have positive buzz by the truckload. Darkseid War is DC's #2 storyline right now. Fans adore it.

I know this, because I'm behind the counter, in the trenches looking the fans in the eye every day since 1988. Thanks for educating me what people might be interested in. I don't need to get my shtick from a message board or google group, I am modern spec source material personified.

 

Anybody that follows Geoff Johns via Twitter or Facebook knows that Darkseid War is leading directly into DC Rebirth, It's old news yet DC is having a press junket at Wondercon Saturday to formally announce just that.My opinion, everyone interested in Rebirth will want this.

They just don't know until Saturday.

 

Silly me, I thought the pattern of events looked similar to Gwenom & thought it would make an interesting post.

 

The story arc is already getting tough to find.

I set up at Big Apple con & it was an incredible seller.

Depending on HOW it creates Rebirth could generate a number of Key's

Right now I lke em all...

Let's see how it plays out.

 

You guys are some of the biggest lunatics in the industry.

 

Did you meet CAK at Big Apple Con? He was in the corner pressing
