Fatale anyone?

[fastballspecial]

have you guys found any copies without the printers smudge in the lower left corner, just to the right of the lower left staple. Even my 2nd print of 1 has it.

 

Almost every copy I have got has it some degree wont affect the grade.

I think I might have one of each without.

k thanks for the info...i'm just paranoid about sending them in and getting gorilla slammed with a 9.4

[FIREFLY]

9.4s are not that bad, man. I see you have that Mint itch.

[krighton]

yeah, 9.8s just aren't cutting it. 9.4s are like kissing your sister.

[FIREFLY]

 

 

Goodness, gracious. I have no idea what that is like.

[krighton]

sure it's a kiss...but there's no spark...no pizzazz.....no umph...at least there shouldn't be.

[FIREFLY]

 

 

I used to be a 9.8 fiend, but now I'm happy with 9.4s. Wouldn't go below that. Even changed my focus on having sketches stay raw instead of getting them slabbed. Too much money to have them slabbed on top of the artist fees, unless one plans to flip them. Maybe that's why I don't care as much for 9.8s in my personal collection. Is that heresy on the Modern Section of the boards.

 

[krighton]

with older stuff i don't mind a lower grade...wouldn't like to go below an 8 though. Maybe i'll change eventually on modern grades but i can't even look at anything lower than a 9.8 on ebay.

[FIREFLY]

To collect personally, invest, or both?

[WiseGuyX]

I try not to go lower than 9.6 on recent moderns but I do have a couple 9.4s. Older stuff is another issue, my lowest grade is a .5 AF15...I don't care, I'm very happy with it

[FIREFLY]

Indeed, you should be. Could care less on the grade of such a key issue. The point is that you have one in your possession. (thumbs u

Okay--I finally bit the bullet on Fatale and bought both #1 covers and a few # 2s last night.

 

While I wait for them to arrive so I can read it,

 

1) Is it in black & white or color?

2) Is it a limited series or ongoing? If limited, are we talking four issues? 12?

 

Huge Greg Rucka fan, and the supernatural angle looks interesting.

1) Color, though it's a muted palette

2) Ongoing

 

I hope you're also a huge Brubaker fan, since he's the writer on this series.

[Gatsby77]

Oh ! I get them confused.

 

But Brubaker gets a near-lifetime pass for me for his first Daredevil arc (82-87, was it)? and Captain America, vol. 4. Thanks for the info!
