plasticmoz Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 I actually thought #2 was weak. The narrative pieces were long and drawn out - solid, but I expected more after the first issue. Still, interested to see where this leads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, interested to see where this leads. I felt similar but not so much to call it weak. Just the point where you have to let the story unfold a little. I'm still as excited for #3 as I was after reading 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look forward to #3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarrysComics Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 The Phantom is the only variant of #2 so far, right? Yuuuup. EVERYBODY abandoned this property en masse. Except MY retailer group. We're committed through #6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HugeRosen Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 (edited) The Phantom is the only variant of #2 so far, right? Yuuuup. EVERYBODY abandoned this property en masse. Except MY retailer group. We're committed through #6 Who do you mean by everybody? 3 of the 6 variants for #1 were comic con exclusives. One is part of YOUR retailer group, but did their own variant as well. The other you traded phantoms with to get some unsigned copies of their variant. Your ARROGANCE and EGO inflating posts are QUITE frustrating at TIMES. EDIT: I changed the capitalization of the last sentence for you. You seem to like to randomly capitalize words.

Larry just can't get out of his own way but it's good to see him signing his posts with "Chump." now, although I think he is still being far to kind to himself.

Beige Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 What did Bob Dylan sing.."The times they are a-changing" Wonder if #2 has $60 worth of specialness in it too - all for $3.99 cover. How does that work? Seriously,if you are the only shop selling it,as it sounds like all the other shops thought releasing 1 variant of 'Old Bettys Farm' / 'Bee-keeping weekly/ Deadpool (delete as appropriate) per week for 6 months was a dumb idea, how can it be justified to mark it at $3.99 cover, and then ask $60 for it. Especially as nobody seems to want it due to excessive overkill. I've quite rightly been told to shut up about variants - and I have - your money,knock yourselves out and I hope you get pleasure out of them. But really,how can someone print a book off for $4 and then want $60 a few days later? The contents the same - yes? - just a different cover - is that right? Somebody (other than King Larry) explain how this works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
