Re: Alien making the same mistake as DMG

BPRD still does the miniseries numbering but puts the overall number inside the book. Mignola had to recognize the marketplace realities. People buy #1 issues, but fans like the longer narrative.

I don’t love a million variants, but as a OA cover collector, it gives me more opportunities!

I still can't use this board. I'm dumb.

February 25 - Added some splash, half-splash and nice hero pages to this mix, including an unpublished full splash Acclaim page. 10 new pages in all. I can ship this week.

Re: Nycjadie's Sale List - Updated February 25

I'm finally starting to weed my collection down. This has been a long delayed exercise for many reasons. In almost all cases, the items are unique, rare or scarce.

Re: See-Through Chromium Errors

I've noticed these far more on Ninjak. Slightly fewer on Bloodshot. None on Shadowman and very few on Geomancer and X-O.

I love them all and keep every on I find. :)

Re: Just not feeling it anymore

SO let me just say, in my opinion the following quote from nycjadie (which after all these years I just realised is nyc newyorkcity Jadie is that correct?) NYC is my old home town. Jadie is my middle name. I adopted an email with these two words about 25 years ago for use on websites like this. :)

Re: Just not feeling it anymore

Arguably, one of the most important examples of how the tone of VALIANT's comics differed from that of DC and Marvel and made them more grounded was that Phil Seleski -- an energy God struggling to retain his humanity -- regularly met with a psychologist. That sort of anchor kept him grounded becau...

Re: Just not feeling it anymore

VH1 had a community of fans that consisted of most collectors and readers at the beginning and it petered out like most publishers in that era. I wouldn’t be surprised if it wasn’t hundred of thousands at a certain point. Today’s Valiant community is incredibly small. Probably a few thousand. It’s p...

Platinum and golden age is my thing right now. I can get some of the first comics ever printed for les...

I’m not sure about now, but CGC didn’t allow different tiers or pressing requests in the same invoice. Their site now lacks info it used to have on these things.

I have submitted thousands and thousands of books. I’m still learning and missing things. To submit older books, experience is significantly helpful.

Added a big load of X-O, Turok and Timewalker pages. Note the funny names they called Timewalker (e.g. Timestroller, Timecrawler, and my favorite - Timewanker). I've included photos of the backs of some of those pages. The price is listed on those photos, but it's just the one price for the piece (n...
