I wish Lawrence Block would write some books about a comic collecting hitman....

 

You just won me over. :foryou:

 

i knew in a forum full of readers, someone would get that reference

 

It's true. Park can't read.

 

He just looks at the neat pictures.

 

Truthfully, he has trouble with them as well.

 

ps i like your avatar-I've often thought they should do a lone wolf/thanos crossover and call it Lone wolf and Cube.

 

lol

It's a comic book. Stop being a bunch of babies. While I do not agree with having pedigrees signed, it's not my decision. But stop whining, the horse is beaten and removed. You are now beating a bottle of glue.

 

Stop it.

 

This stuff is great entertainment.

So is youtube

In Before everyone gets bored and the thread slowly drifts away.

 

Let's drum up some drama so he doesn't mill away.

anyone who gets anything signed, ever, is a complete nincompoop and traitor to the hobby.

 

anyone who says you can't do what you want with your books is a control freak librarian psycho.

 

The problem with your theory is that you have forgotten that what you collect sucks and what I collect rocks.

 

 

They featured one on your comics today from My Slabbed Comics on my Facebook. Avengers #9. I liked it. I think your comics rock too. :headbang:

 

They did? hm They just featured my Thrilling the other day...

 

:gossip: And I like my collection too. It's not every Marvel ever published since 1960. But it's not like anyone could ever afford something like that.

 

Only a person_having_a_hard_time_understanding_my_point would try and do something like that. :tonofbricks:

 

I think they feature two comics from a collection back to back. They did that with two of my comics. Featured them both on the same day at different times. (shrug)

you're definitely not the only one shocked.

Not to inject a serious note but my initial behaviour is sort of a result of PTSD-I've experienced some pretty mind-staggering things in my life and it can make me lash out like an injured animal....NOT AN EXCUSE

Truth.

Pressing threads from 2010 were WAAAYYYYYY better. This is just blah.

 

They are pretty much the same.

 

Nah, I think Pat's right. There was a certain authentic freshness to the butthurt back then that is sort of just mimicked today.

 

I can't stand it when people phone-in their butthurt.

 

Not shipping to Canada is where the freshest butthurt is right now.

Signatures on books.

At one time it was considered ok to tape a book. To fill in missing ink with crayons, markers.

I believe future collectors will shake their heads in dismay at the signing of books.

You do not alter a collectible-at all. You do not polish up old coins. You do not refinish antique furniture. You do not get the guy who found the dead sea scrolls to sign them.

You leave a collectible ALONE. It is inevitable that one day untouched, un stan-leed books will command a huge premium. When people come to their senses and realize what they are doing.

If you want Stan Lee's signature (why, I don't know-they are as common as dirt)-get him to sign a piece of paper and insert it in the book.

This makes me very very sad.

Yeah, I'm sure Thomas Jefferson signatures are garbage. Signed first edition prose books are not desired by any book collectors, and nobody wants their art print signed.

Even "Dandelion Wine" is awesome. I think it might be the Bradbury book for everyone.
