  1. Past hour
  2. Did you manage to see the sales thread I did on worldwide WW2 wartime comics?
  3. I love this thread — hard to see these days… threads like this (and members like esquirecomics) were one of the main reasons which made me decide to join the boards, over 10 years ago.
  4. Well hello there sir - longgggg time. pretty FF8! Sorry to hear about the income freeze. What I remember most about your posts is your artistic eye for unusual stuff. Hope you get to throw more funny money at funny books again sometime soon.
  5. thanks @austinhg I read about them acquiring the verification system, but havent seen any updates for a while.
  6. Bookery's last guide had them as "somewhat common" but they sure ain't anymore in my experience. Nearly impossible lately. I think anyone who sees them goes squirreling through the interwebs trying to snap up any they can find. All 5 covers are outstanding. Here's number 3. It's kinda "cool" and probably somewhat desirable
  7. So good I logged in as I was wondering myself and thinking of writing you a message. In a very minimal and limited manner I can grasp your experience as I've been unwell since before Easter, I experienced vertigo due to cervicalgic pain, fall and broke a rib, and other stuff. I can only imagine how adapting to these limitations can be, as I have seen how relatively minimal limitations can hugely impact the most mundane daily tasks. And of course I do sympatize with your current "forced unemployment" being still working on my typeface design project and not having a fixed income. A big hug, Jimmy, God bless!
  8. It’s kind of sad how variant covers completely took over around 2000.
  9. Very sporadically logging in, as I have no time and also my own collecting is pretty much freezed because of lack of income. But always joyful to show my #8…
  10. I do not have money to put into collecting, and also time is very little, so most is "freezed"…
  11. Another reason I lurked here on the CGC boards. So much knowledge about our hobby.
  12. Interesting! Did she have any idea what the interior check marks and numbers/notations meant?
  13. And being Kromak from Brazil he knows well, as together with us, they have been one of the producers. Brazilian authors also adopted very early the Italian created character "Duck Avenger" (by master Guido Martina) somewhat turning him into a sort of super-hero parody (which he was not mean to be, he was introduced as a commentary of the italian "fumetti neri" on the wave of Diabolik). Brazilian authors did fun and weird short stories where almost all of the characters have secret identities. In particular, Paper Bat ("Morcego Vermelho", Red Bat in his original Brazilian conception), Fethry Duck's unlucky superheroistic alter-ego, was created in 1973 by brazilian authors Ivan Saidenberg and Carlos Edgard Herrero, based on guidelines by our own Giovan Battista Carpi (art director of the Italian Disney school until his death in 1999). https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morcego_Vermelho Red Bat is basically "Fethry Duck playing Batman" and he's very funny at that… I attach an 1980s cover of our own title "Mega Almanacco" by italian master Marco Rota featuring him… I love this cover!
  14. Anticipating a slabbed All Story Tarzan.
  15. Fascinating stuff @Professor K! My only CA book.
  16. I just wanted to check in to see if anyone facilitating at CCXP.
  17. Please see order CGC4252546913, which entered your system on 11/27/2023 (at full price) but was not received by CGC until 4/2/2024 after the 10% discount was added to my then-existing premium membership.
  18. I'm always a huckleberry for 75-year-old white page Fiction House books, especially if they are bondage or GGA covers.
  19. I've probably seen Dickie play 6 to 8 times and met him briefly once. He was a great guitarist and a very colorful character.
