Count me in kids for Saturday. I know that I won't find my dream girl there, but I'll be sure to say to you all when I'm there.

"Now thats funny right there, I don't care who you are" I wish there were more people out ther with that twisted sense of humor.

I use the old Able Soft Wizard program Comic Collector 3.0 Still works.

Was born missing my left arm just below the elbow, and was called "Lefty" alot, but when I started racing BMX back in the early 80's my bikes were always painted black due to the fact that I love Smokey and The Bandit. 1 and 1 make 2 I guess. I've been using a variation of the nickname for 20+ years ...

And it works in Firefox! Bravo!

My first Valiant was X-O Manowar #1. Saw the cover at a comic shop I had never been in before on a college campus tour of Bloomington Indiana (Go Hoosiers) The shop was caledl the 25th Century Five and Dime (or something like it) I was hooked on X-O and didn't notice any other Valiant titles until ...

I took a little trip east (Ohio) and found Unity 2000 1 & 2, Armorines Vol2 1-3 S.M. Vol3 1 & 4 and N.I.O. #1 for $7.00. Me thinks that not be too bad. Was more excited just to dig them out of the boxes than seeing the price. It IS all about the thrill of the chase, not the kill. (Not that the kill ...

I, myself, really liked Kingdom Come. Hard to beat Alex Ross art and a good story.

I know this is VH2, but there is a Shadowman Movie in development. And there is also a Bloodshot flick in development also http://www.comics2film.com/ShadowmanArch.shtml

I use the OLD Comic Collector 3.0 from AbleSoft that used to be updated monthly with the help of wizard Magazine. Its the best I've used personally.

i bought one and decided after all the success i had with my valiant era cards (12 rares!!) i'd go ahead and open this box- :cry:
4 rares-only 3 unique.

plus the sorting was horrid-i've got about 9 cards number 5 and zero number 3...and it goes like that through the entire set...sheesh!

this was ...

Closest LCBS's in my area are In Danville, IL (SUCK!!) and 3 in Lafayette, IN. and I have scoured them all. Made some good scores, but they all have since died up for the last 6 months.

Boo yaa... I'd say you did ok as well !!! Those Turok golds look schweet dont they ?

It looks great!! I almost most missed it amongst the regular #1 covers as the box I was looking through was under a table. I went passed it twice before I saw it. Goes to show that its worth the time to thumb ...

Picked up a Turok Gold 1, Shadowman V3 #5 & #6, and Darque Pasages #1 & #2 for a cool buck! I think I did okay.

Picked up a VVSS SW #11 today for $2.00. The comic and the certificate are in great shape, but the plastic sleeve (with the Valiant logo on the flap) is all scratched and scuffed. Do I need to keep the sleeve, or is the book and cert. enough? Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Picked up a copy of Unity 2000 #1 with the blue cover bagged with #2. Is it wise to leave the books sealed together? Just curious. I know it’s probably a rookie question, but would like to hear your opinions. BTW got it for a cool 25 cents, so I don't think I did to badly.

I suck, I missed it too. Can you ever forgive me?

Count me in...... or in the case is it count me on? Whichever, I'll be there.

And, yes I know small. I was raised in Montana an now live in southeast Idaho. For a comparison, the county I grew up in is almost 4 times the size of Rhode Island and has a population of 5,566 people (1.4 persons per square mile). Indiana has 172 persons / sq. mi. and Rhode Island has over ...

One Armed Bandit, where in Indiana are you located, if I may ask? I go over to Fort Wayne often as my mother-in-law lives there. My wife grew up outside of Bluffton.

I'm 25 miles S.W. of Lafayette. Nice to know i'm not on either side of the age spectrum.

I was just wondering how old everyone I was sharing my interests with were. I am 34 and I am usually the only one my age in my area that claims to be a Pannapictagraphist. I live in small (and i can't stress enough SMALL) mid-western town and i think when it comes to comics...... I'm it. Lets here ...

Might be an interesting thing to watch for the investor if Acclaim trades stock. I have been a Marvel True Believer since the early 80's. I started paying attenation to stocks at the advice of my grandfather. I watched MVL as it dropped to near $2.00 a share and trading was halted for a brief period ...

Hero: X-O (Aric)
Villian: Darque

Getting a copy of X-O #1 when it came out is what got into Valiant to begin with, so it holds a place near my heart.
