[CAHokie]

No! You don't need to do that. Give people a chance to see your offers! They haven't even been up a day yet.

Any 3 of those added to any option.

 

 

Sorry for that horrible SWAMP THING picture, AND NOW TWO HORRIBLE GOLDEN PHOTOS,

[Bird]

okay, I cannot be accused of not trying, only of bad taste. I put up another option and added to the Dave Sim option. I am trying here people. Will Eisner for freakin' sakes! Ten signed michael golden 11X17 plates! I am ready to throw in the green ottoman as well at this point. Maybe I can also come over and help disorganize your comic collection. if I ever am foolish enough to try and claim something again I think I will have to do a cherry picker type of thing completely. I was going to put my run of Doc strange Sorcerer Supreme in here but unless Rintrah comes over to do the dirty work I have no hope of pulling them together in a short time. that Ultimate X-Men run was bad enough, I would think those missing issues are around here somewhere. Any missing issues can be claimed in perpetuity for the Ult X-Men and fell! In fact I will buy every issue of Fell that they publish if they ever get back to it and send it to you until one of us or Warren Ellis dies if that is what it takes to make a deal here. over

no really,

[CAHokie]

I have no idea what those plates are but they look awesome. Can you tell me more about them? Sell it, make me want it!

[Bird]

I have little idea either, CAHokie! When Renee Witterseklfklaselkfakl brought Golden back to conventions afew years back he took commissions but took forever to get them done. So for two years or so I was at his table every time he was in town to ask about my two commissions and would talk with him and end up buying some things. According to the back, this is a set of portfolios plates put out in 2005 through IMAGE that bills it from "a creator who never makes convention appearances". us retail $34.99, $40.25 canadian!

 

 

 

 

man, I cannot shoot a camera photo for my life!

 

 

[Bird]

and you know you want it!

[CAHokie]

What do you mean by plates? Everything I can find about them has them listed as being on paper.

[Bird]

Yes they are on paper I guess I just always use the term portfolio plates sorry about the confusion. I was trying to counter the term POSTER BOOK from the cover,as it is not a book at all. Here is from the back cover

 

 

okay, nite nite

 

 

I thought you were being kind to help drum up interest!

[CAHokie]

I still think they are awesome whether they are on paper or not! If I had room, I would totally display one of those Tyrannosaurus Rex prints. I was just fascinated by them when I though they were on metal because I had no idea what they were.

[69CamaroZ28]

I really like that Michael Golden portfolio. I know my 9 year old would love pinning them up in his room.

I think they are really cool. You could get some cheap frames from Michaels and make it look awesome! Do it!

[69CamaroZ28]

We'll see what tomorrow brings. I'll see if I can find something interesting to offer up before putting myself in the hot seat

[vaillant]

OK, I have been meaning to read it for some time now, so…

 

OPTION 2: new Daredevil series 1-14 and 10.1 and Age of Ultron 1-10

(we will discuss shipping).

 

But I am not interested in the Age of Ultron, so if it happens you have any Fantastic Four issues from the Civil War storyline I would like to have them.

 

I’ll try to post my offer ASAP.

[vaillant]

OK, for a start here’s a first option.

Free shipping in Europe. I will cover the first $15 shipping everywhere else (this will probably result just in a $5 contribution I would ask for options under 2.2 lbs in weight).

 

Option A - Marvel Italia special issues.

When Marvel decided to publish their titles by themselves in Italy in the mid-1990s (things have changed again, BTW) they decided to launch Marvel Italia and relaunch many titles from the first issues.

They produced some zero issues with custom covers drawn by younger italian artists. This lot includes Capitan America e Thor, I Vendicatori and Silver Surfer.

Plus, I will add the Heroes Reborn italian edition of Fantastic Four #1, which includes a mini-poster, and issue #50 of Uomo Ragno Classic (the classic stories reprint) which features a foil embossed prismatic cover. All are in very nice shape.

 

 

 

Option B - Batman Lot

A mixed lot of books and criticism magazines. Books are in VNVF to NM shape, magazines mostly are in nice shape but some are midgrade.

 

 

 

Option C - The Sandman Hardcover

by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby

Not sealed, but as new in its original dust jacket.

 

Option D - The Spirit Archives

Issue 3, by Will Eisner. In great shape as well, with its DJ.

 

 

Option E - Original art page from Demon #3 (1990s series)

Art by Mark Pacella. Not a particularly striking page, but for someone who liked the Alan Grant Demon series…

 

Option F - Elektra Lives Again - VFNM

In great shape, my OO copy.

 

Option G - Golden age italian Disney - Topolino Giornale 1948-49

Pick any three issues from the last year run of the italian journal "Topolino", from 1948-49. All issues feature an installment of one of the first more complex stories produced by our renowned school of authors, "Topolino e il Cobra Bianco". A mad scientist type of story, besides featuring tortures and horrorific and absurd stuff, it is famous here because it has its final chapter on Topolino Libretto (digest) #1, which is among the highest coveted collectibles from the post-war (and ranges in price like early Marvels in grade).

FYI, the last ones are the less common.

 

Available issues to choose from are #717, 727, 728, 729, 734

 

 

Option H - Italian Spider-Man books

Pick as much as you want (I will give a list) up to 2.2 lbs (including packaging) and I will cover the first $15 shipping to USA (and thus will ask just for a $5 contribution). Free shipping in Europe.

 

Here’s the catch: if you pick the original art page you must choose also another option of a TPB or hardcover and you will pay the shipping exceeding the first $15 which I cover. I need to make room!

we can work on some other comics for those Age of Ultron, sure. If the ones you want are Hickman FF I may have them, I will delve into the closet, deep into the closet.

 

I am in your debt, oh valliant one. Thanks for the save while I am still learning PIF.

 

 

[vaillant]

Happy to help, assumed my offers will get taken!

 

Hickman (and Millar too) issues would be good, since I am missing them as well, but I would favor the Civil War as I stopped slightly after the Straczynski story arc.

But I don’t want to take too much advantage of your generosity.

Hey, it is PIF, I want to make you happy happy if I can. I'll get back to you in 12 hours or so, off to work.

 

well, a quick search turned up 552 or so through 570ish, but I willkeep looking. Did you ever read Seth Fisher's FF/Iron man Big in Japan. Cause you were so nice you can have those too if you'd like.

[vaillant]

To be clear: I have half of the Straczynski run, I just stop the issue before Civil War, so anything after this one is OK (including the first Civil War FF issue).

[vaillant]

Added a Batman option and a Disney one. (thumbs u
