When a handful of slabs fall on a concrete floor, the older slabs are more forgiving....

This reminds me of when I dropped a bag that had 20 Ultimate Spider-Man 1s in it, and ruined them all. I had speculated on that book, and it went through the roof in price. That drop cost me at least a grand.
Valiant is the son of the New Universe.

:o I've never had anything like that!

This isn't my worst story, but it's one that still stings. I finally found a perfect 9.8 Rai TPB Blue candidate, and as I'm getting it ready to catalog, I drop it on its corner.... I wanted that pretty badly at the time.
