the authority Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Just in! I've been patiently waiting for the right moment to sit down and read #6. So tonight, when the house is quiet and my is mind free, I'll finally be able enjoy a dbl espresso and my favorite title. awww...pure bliss. That cover to #4 sticks out to me as the cover I'm most likely to remember 20 years from now...assuming I can remember anything 20 years from now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That cover to #4 sticks out to me as the cover I'm most likely to remember 20 years from now...assuming I can remember anything 20 years from now O ya that #4 cover is . My favorite cover for sure. My second fave would have to be the ECCC cover or maybe the #1 2nd print cover...ahhhh...too many good looking covers to choose from. Just finished up #6. Loved it! The art was fitting but the writing/story structure really stood out to me in this one. It was strange...when I was reading one of the panels Harrison Ford's voice took over. It was the line "Whatever you say, princess". I chucked in my head after that one. I'm excited for CMs return next month and of course PIRATES!

I'm with you on Chris' return but I'm looking forward to reading #6. My shipment is running a day behind and I didn't want to chance messing up my NYCC copy.

Solar Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 so, five ghosts, more suited for a movie, tv show, cartoon or video game. Yes I think movie with the material out so far but long term, I would rather watch it weekly. Cartoon would be cool as someone compared it to Johnny Quest in style a while ago. I think it would be a letdown in the art department after what Chris has done. Who would play Fabian ? Orlando Bloom in Balian the Blacksmith mode. Totally off topic but that reminded me I need to watch Kingdom of Heaven again. The director's cut is one of my favorite movies ever (as opposed to the completely unwatchable theatrical cut).

chainnball Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 we will see where the SDCC set ends. at $300 with 12 minutes left. CHEAP!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vikingreed Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Sitting at $700.00 now. What to do, what to do...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NigelTufnel42 Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Sitting at $700.00 now. What to do, what to do...? This is brutal. This is literally the only Modern Comic item on my wish list. And there is no way. Like I said in another thread this will hopefully bring others to the "Ebay light" because I am not as concerned about condition (just want a decent 9.0 copy).

ZaCrew Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 If Five Ghosts continues gaining readers, and I am convinced it will. The Ashcan could very well become one of the most sought after moderns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vikingreed Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 On the census, they are listed individually as variants for 1-5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vikingreed Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 The internal battle I am having over this ashcan, is that I don't know if an opportunity to purchase one in this kind of grade (or any grade) will ever present itself again. My fandom of this comic is getting monetarily tested.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
