Fine, you win the internets. How about taking war this to PM, or another thread, or anywhere but here, or just shut up.

 

You tried to bring up a debate that had nothing to do with you, almost a day after it was done and over. Follow your own bolded advice champ

I think "sonny" would have been more effective, but that is just picking nits.

[WebSlinger]

settle down bro

 

make sense "bro", and feel free to demonstrate how i am not "settled".

 

 

 

 

However, if you are just mindlessly trying to pick sides in a debate not involving you, and going with who you like/relate to, then refer to fastballspecial's post

"Tiger" and "big boy" also resonate when used properly.

[Awax]

I vote "Partner"

And my favorite is "cupcake." Used on me in line at a Colts/Chiefs playoff game. I was explaining that either a hangover or more likely a diet prevented me from drinking alcohol, and some random Chiefs Chick who overheard, goes "Just have a beer, cupcake."

 

My buddies still drop "cupcake" on me at appropriate intervals.

We Brits would probably go with 'poppet'

I'm going with 'slugger' - very American and will probably get a run-out at Friday nights Football.

'Sit down slugger,missed by a mile'.

Added to beer and 50,000 Carlton fans, should make for a rather emboldened night of festivities. (You American fellows should just google Carlton and AFL) - otherwise this will make no sense. (thumbs u

"Sporto", "Champaroo" & "Chumplestilsken" are monikers that work well for me.

[Taco]

10 pages of The Big Bang Theory followed by 10 pages of monikers. And a few scattered the secondary market burst comments because they have an inventory everyone else has.

I would think anything Superman/Zod related should get hot this weekend

[aggr1103]

 

I'm still not understanding the X-Force #4 phenomenon.

 

Here's the rounded print runs. Only issue that has more than a 1st printing, or crazy multiple covers is #1. Does the 5,000 issue jump make a difference? The month or two for orders/readership to catch up? It stabilizes around 50,000, so why not the heat on #5, 6, 7, etc?

 

 

 

#

1------96,000

2------57,000

3------56,000

4------51,000

5------51,000

5.1---50,000

6------51,000

7------55,000

8------51,000

9------52,000

10-----51,000

 

Don't think print run has much to do with the popularity of UXF 4. For awhile I think it was hot simply because there wasn't a reprint of it. Issues 1-3 were reprinted in a "must-have" format and there wasn't a trade. Now there's a trade and the prices have cooled. $20 is still a good price for a raw, but its not where it once was. I think two years ago they were in the 30-40 range raw.

 

And hey - look at the sales numbers for New 52 Batman 1. That book does crazy money now and had a 188k print run, plus several extra printings.

My lcs still had a copy yesterday for cover price. So I picked it up. I know a few in my area that have it for cover.
