Re: Discuss Hard To Find Or Currently Hot Comics Of Any Era

Re: Ultimate Comics

The Ultimates were good. Ultimate x-men, particularly the Kirkman stuff was good. There was a galactus min that was really good too.

Re: What comics are you reading now?

Reborn 1 - This was ok. Knowing it's a Millar title and therefore will probably be only 5 issues or so, I got this for the Capullo art. Won't be picking up the rest. Rose 1 - I like to flip most Image #1s to see if they might be something I'd like. The art caught my eye and the story looked interest...

Re: For all the "Invincible" Fans- Series Ending Announcemen

I guess it could be for people who like to argue that stuff. For me, one panel where he says one line is fine to call it a first appearance, but that doesn't make that issue more important than the first issue of the series.

Re: For all the "Invincible" Fans- Series Ending Announcemen

Noble Causes: Family Secrets #3 is definitely the first appearance, but it's a quick cameo. The B cover is the best because Invincible is in one of the boxes in the x-men cover homage. Since it's a quick cameo, #1 is still the best book to have, Imo. Of the issues with the preview, I like Tech Jacke...

Re: XO Manowar [vol.2] #1 discussion

I don't get how this is much different from volume 1. Well, aside from not being able to tell what was going on with the ring and something later in the book. I had problems with the art storytelling.

Re: What comics are you reading now?

Not that they are new, but I 've been reading Jonah Hex related books, read the Palmotti/Gray run, Weird Western Tales new and old runs. I am now reading the Jonah Hex Volume 1 issues. I have to say these have held up very well and in some instances better than some silver age Marvel books. #50 is ...

Re: Dark Horse is starting a new imprint

I'll definitely look at the stuff they put out. This sounds more like an Image model when they say creator owned than vertigo.

I've read a decent amount of vertigo books and many are among my favorites. When creators are given free reign.... Those are usually the best stories.

Re: Rai 0 Platinum?!

This Rai #0 book has a white pricing box, with the price weakly visible, and the compass logo is "ugly" (publishers might play around with colors, but publishers don't mess with their logo). That's three strikes against "platinum" labeling. This book wasn't made on purpose, but ...

Re: Disappointing batch of books from CGC

Vei books are tough in high grade for sure. I don't think I ever see 9.8s on the racks and I'm usually happy to get a 9.2 raw to read.

Re: Valiant expensive variants... and the market in general.

Simplified... A = Total supply B = Normal value C = Variant supply 75/25 rule D = estimate for the variant value D = A * B * 0.25 / C Archer & Armstrong #0 A = 105,000 B = $10 C = 5,000 D = 105,000 * $10 * 0.25 / 5,000 = $52.50 for Archer & Armstrong #0 Gold That right there is beautiful.

Compendiums are the cheapest, but I like the hardcovers. Start with the first one. The art sucks in the first one, but you see Ottley grow throughout the series. He is one of the best out there now, In my opinion. Definitely my favorite super hero book ever. It's an homage to the genre and it combin...

It would have to be a fight from Invincible. Maybe vs Conquest. Or Angstrom Levy. Or Thrag vs Battle Beastt.

Re: For all the "Invincible" Fans- Series Ending Announcemen

Knowing that it was a series Kirkland said he wanted to go on forever, people put the high grade copies into their permanent collections. 9.8s aren't very easy to find anymore, but that will all likely change after the series ends, if not sooner.

Big time bummed by this. I'm certain there are other pencillers who'd love to work on the book, so it's pretty obvious this decision was made because it's not selling a crazy amount of books like TWD. This was what Spider-Man was, but better. I'm hoping one day he'll go back to these characters afte...
