blazingbob Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 (edited) I heard this was a great place to bash Dealers I heard this was the place where all the great comedians hung out. Until I met Jeff from Hotflips I kept asking myself these guys aren't that funny. Edited December 5, 2014 by blazingbob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firespitter Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 My board origin story is pretty typical...I was a mild mannered TV watching citizen bitten by a radio-active paper-cut while thumbing through the dollar bin copies of Alapha flights and Warlord comics of the LCS....and was gifted with the extraordinary power to over-spend whenever I saw a comic I wanted. But from there, I was seeking out fellow Hellboy/Mignola enthusiasts, and found a link to here on a thread (I think posted by Bosco?) and despite finding a great dearth of Hellboy fans, I started reading other threads and sort of became hooked by the community and bar-style questions and answers. I'm puzzled why I still have yet to come across a convincing answer to the Veronica or Betty question. (I'd always thought Valerie was the hot one...What can I say? I like the chocolate). -T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JazzMan Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 I was googling dooshnozzle and felt lucky, so it brought me to these boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sckao Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 I purchased the remnants of the Green River collection including some high grade copies the suspect's lawyer had put aside. Came onto this board for more information and the Green River Daredevil #11 I sold got embroiled in the Ewert situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was sold as a 9.4 and reappeared later as a 9.6. (Something that a normal press probably could have achieved.) (It was sold to Ewert and shipped to Brulato. All public knowledge.)

redknight99 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 My board story: Back when I was in elementary school, The Infinity Gauntlet, was the ultimate crossover that made an everlasting impression in my childhood years. Fast Forward 25 years later>> a character named Thanos made a cameo appearance at the end of The Avengers movie. That reignited my long lost love for comics and I bought Iron Man 55 9.8 (Suscha Pedigree from Comic Connect), and this was in April of this year. Needless to say, I found this forum at that time and the rest is History..... Now my significant other wish I never got back into this hobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
