It's my second copy, it was a last-minute impulse bid and I ended up winning; I was sure I'd get outbid, but I'm cool with it! I have a graded 2nd print as well, just a 9.2 but I lucked into it for fairly inexpensively. Keeping my eye out for a lucky cheap 3rd print now...

Sounds familiar but I don't think I ever saw that movie, or I'm pretty sure either was a movie.... Jesse-Lee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The book is great, but aalso tough read as it's a stream-of-consciousness style from a (mostly) Scottish perspective. And also very dark of course.

That actually makes sense, maybe it happened after 6pm, and it may be the reason I didn't see it earlier Jesse-Lee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BishopT Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 (edited) Some highlights from Sunday’s flea market event (dollar books and newsstands will be posted in their respective threads)… I have to say the timing on those Stormwatch books is blowing my mind, even if I’m always keeping an eye out on these two. This is only the second time I’ve found a Stormwatch 4 locally, so I had to get it. Two days later, boy am I glad I did. Edit: also, not to undersell the Ninjak gold variant, because I was thrilled to get that one after having sellers remorse with that same book. A customer at the flea market said he wanted four fairly common books I had at the show, he came into the store today with some books to trade and he had the Ninjak. So the wheels were set in motion for this trade at the flea market, so I count it lol. Also, that Daredevil is a 1:50 from the 2019 series.

IbukiLord Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 I bought this 4 hours before the trailer dropped, when I woke up and saw that every listing had disappeared from ebay I thought my order would get cancelled but it arrived. $4 including shipping. Been on the lookout for this cover since 2019, ordered it from my LCS and it never came, was never able to find any local copies, finally one got listed. The foil on the cover is so well done, needs to be seen in person, really pops. Won in an auction, I collect Hellcat and Ivan Tao was just waiting to snag a cheap copy that no one bids on. Premise of this book sounded interesting D2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
