Peter Sellers was one of six agents who pretended to be James Bond in the 1967 Casino Royale movie. Ok, that's a weak link. ganni and KirbyJack 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frozentundraguy Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 My run as Bond was so short ..... I didnt even have time to flirt with Moneypenny. I'm not just waiting on delivery for The Phantom #18, the post office is also waiting for the book from the seller, but they have a tracking number.

Just received this note from the seller after asking him why I have a tracking number since the 17th but no movement as yet. So, I spoke to one of the postmen in the post office and he gave me a song and dance about the weather (it's been raining a lot) and being a little behind this weekend. I have to check back with him tomorrow. Sorry for any delays. Check my feedback you'll see I'm very fast with getting items out. Your package would have been mailed the day after you paid so it should be in the system. I'll keep you posted. KirbyJack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post frozentundraguy Posted January 27 Popular Post Share Posted January 27 The Phantom has arrived, issue #18 of the Phantom that is. One item I almost always check is the letter column, to see if anyone local has one in the book. Sure enough there is a letter from a fan in St. Paul. I'm in the Minneapolis area so I count that as close. Yorick, OtherEric, KirbyJack and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least they processed BrightSide's application correctly, and added the 10% diners discount.

A check of the bylaws suggest that a member is not allowed to abandon a position of power within King Club other than at the triennialx club elections, unless it can be demonstrated that the member has eliminated their eligibility for membership within King Club by divesting themselves of all King comics. Lacking documentation of such divestiture, they're stuck with the job until December 2026. Sorry. x As everybody in the club knows, the elections are triennial in honor of the original run of the King Comics being the three years from 1966-1968, even though the only book believed to actually have come out in 1968 is the hard to find Beetle Bailey #66.

All true, Eric's Other, but you are forgetting one key get out of jail free sub-clause, namely number 37 of sub-section 4 which clearly states: "Under any and all circumstances, Marwood can do as he fing pleases and there's nothing 'I' or anyone else can do about it" So sorry back atcha, Alexander.

About which there seems to be some confusion. Does it exist as anything other than a complimentary? Who knows. And frankly, who cares.
