Jasonmorris1000000 Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 #86 and 103 are at CGC now. I didn’t get them cleaned and pressed so I should be getting them back soon. Unfortunately I need to sell them in order to help mitigate the costs of some Golden Age stuff I bought over the past month combined with some large vet bills. Now doesn’t seem to be the best time to sell stuff though. I’ve been noticing price dips on GPA for all of the stuff I’ve sold or am trying to sell recently. I’m keeping Surtur and the Grey Gargoyle though Mmanick, KirbyJack, Mucheee1 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post MattTheDuck Posted July 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 11, 2022 As noted before, I loved the Greek/Norse Gods mashup and read it repeatedly. I wish this story would be brought to the MCU, but it looks like they're going a different direction with Hercules. My deepest thanks to whomever it was at Apache Books that told me Thor had appeared in a different book before he had his own title. Otherwise I would have been pawing through boxes looking for Thor #125 for a long time.

KirbyJack Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 I’ll allow it! But my wife told me the current movie should have been named Thor 4: More Thor! Jasonmorris1000000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattTheDuck Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 I suppose it's too hard to explain/maintain, but the MCU has chosen to leave out the "becoming mortal without his hammer" aspect of Thor's character, and there's only the one brief reference to Donald Blake in the first movie. Also, my introduction to Jane Foster was as a simpering, fearful milquetoast character rather than the smart, strong (if unconvincingly acted) character of the movies. namisgr, KirbyJack and Math Teacher 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyJack Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Trembling Jane is not missed, but I don’t miss Don Blake, either. I also think most of the stuff they’re doing with Mjolnir is wrong. Jasonmorris1000000 and Microchip 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
