Sounds promising!

Your 9.6 looks great. Hopefully it gets sold. It sure beats the remaining raw copy on E-Bay with a couple of issues that probably drops the grade a little. Honestly, I will never understand what kind of Ouija board, coin flip, or rock-paper-scissors-lizard-spock game CGC uses to divine a 9.6 from a...

I finally watched the movie last night. I really enjoyed it, but it felt... I don't know... Short? Incomplete? Something. The movie was very fun though. No ulna to the neck though. :( Sent from my ONEPLUS A6013 using Tapatalk Yeah, I was totally expecting the broken ulna neck stab. That may have be...

If a raw went for $300, I figured I'd list my 9.6 at $295 and see what happens. It can't hurt to test the market, I suppose. If anyone is interested, I'll knock 5% off the price and cover the shipping.

The 9.6 went for $79 and 2 9.8s, one at $225 and one at $207, both with $15 shipping.

Rumors heating up. Who knows.

The fact that people still talk about him is a testament to all he's done in the comic book world.

I gotta repost my interview with him on YouTube. He talked about some of the creative origins of characters etc... but I was surprised by how much he talked about the business of comics and the wheeling and dealing. The interview was with Shooter, sounds like? From what year? I'd definitely definit...

After being raped by Ebay and Paypal, I went to ship the slabs as promised via Priority Mail. Which is now $15.05 each. Yikes. Over $30 to ship just two books.

How are you guys shipping slabs these days?

I've lost some interest but still buy everything out of habit with the intention of catching up.

You would think they would pay someone that they liked enough to keep him (or her) around.

I don't remember how many at this point. There's what you see there and I think 17 that didn't pass the 9.6 pre-screen. They all look pretty perfect to me... I wished I had just screened for 9.8 and then kept resubmitting.

It's funny how powerful a Tweet on the back issue market these days!

It's just silly.

The proud owner of that stack of X-O #1s that sold on eBay a couple of years ago has to be happy now.

Hat tip to Ken for giving me a heads up on the Cena tweet. Thanks, buddy!

Since the Cena tweet, 9.8s have gone up around $75. On April 8, a few went for about $150 or less. I just sold one for $225 and a 9.6 for $69 plus shipping. I relisted a 9.6 at $79 to see what happens. Might hang back on 9.8s for a bit and see if the market climbs. And they called me crazy when I bo...

Right back atcha. I've never actually been on the Valiant FB page. Is it active? Do participants get along?

I agree with a lot of the points you guys made... especially the nanites traveling back to reform the body part that was injured. And I felt that way since the first trailer. But it's more cinematic, I suppose.

Yeah, ya can't start with Unity. You have to know the characters a little to have an appreciation of what's going on. Fortunately (or maybe not) there's not too much to read before Unity.

Harbinger is an easy start. It's a well known archetype.

That will be appreciated in the trenches, I'll bet.

Shadowman #7. It's still early in the run and has that distinct voodoo vibe.

It's a good idea. It costs them nothing and they potentially appeal to a new reader.

There's a local 'second run' theater near me that usually has films after they've left the big chains. So there's still hope of seeing it in a theater. :hope: It's actually a little landmark in the area and absolutely gorgeous. And no trailers or commercials to sit through! When the movie time is 7:...

But why though? Creating comics seems like one of the only businesses that's relatively safe from the virus. How many people work in Valiant's office? 10? Writers, artists, and even editors can work from home too. It could be that since the LCSs aren't open, they don't want buyers to have a 'double...
