I always like that cover. :) I picked it up first con when getting back to collecting!  :x

Me too! 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... lol

It's a trainspotting homage? Sounds familiar but I don't think I ever saw that movie, or I'm pretty sure either was a movie....

Yep! Movie was decent - Ewan McGregor was the star. Very dark. 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.

Ya if it partly takes place over seas, as an American it would make it interesting.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!!

Ha, thank you!! It's actually tomorrow, so the board jumped the gun by a few hours, but I appreciate it!!

That actually makes sense, maybe it happened after 6pm, and it may be the reason I didn't see it earlier lol

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.
