  1. Past hour
  2. Second thoughts - now I know you’re CaliDreamin. agree though, Alec is posting some gems
  3. Relisted: WWII training and morale poster by Noel Sickles, of Scorchy and Terry & The Pirates fame Great shape. 17.5" x 23.5". Sickles WWII work is legendary. This is a fantastic example his skill and design. PRICE: $350 or best offer.
  4. Isn't it fantastic that the crew above got a dedicated series about their adventures in time. I think so.
  5. Re-Listed: 1942 Joe Dope WWII Training Poster by Will Eisner Ignore the background its another poster. This poster is 82 years old and was a working poster displayed at camp, base, or where ever it would do some good. Like most of the original posters (which I guarantee this is), it has pin holes in the corners. It is 14" x 18" (the fakes usually aren't) and is on the right paper stock. But this is one is a cut above others I've seen as it has square corners, bright colors, and looks vibrant. PRICE: $400 or best offer.
  6. There's a registry set called "Marvel Silver Age 1st Issues (1956-1969)" that actually doesn't have any of the early Silver Age Marvel #1s (ASM #1, DD #1, FF #1, Hulk #1, X-Men #1, etc.). At a quick glance, it seems to me that there's a typo in the set name and that it should really be 1966-1969. Here's the list of what's in the set:
  7. Congrats! I was able to get mine last year at C2E2 from a vendor on the last day, he gave me a decent deal since I also had bought another book from him. It kind of sucks how long it has been taking Tynion to release issues. If he would stop with all of these other side projects, maybe we would be much further along with the story. Issue #36 is out this week.
  8. Regarding "the dots"; when you're doing 4/C printing, the inks being used are cyan, magenta, yellow, and black, as noted. To get the full range of color you see printed, all colors are some percentage of those four inks. A vibrant red might be 0 cyan, 100 magenta, 100 yellow, and 0 black. A vibrant green might be 100 cyan, 0 magenta, 100 yellow, and 0 black. But when we're talking about lighter colors, they're not the full 100% of those inks. But the ink isn't diluted, so to show the lower percentage of the color, solid dots of varying sizes (depending on the percentage) are used to create all of the colors you see. For example, this is a square with three cyan columns at 25%, 50%, and 75%, and four magenta rows at 0%, 25%, 50%, and 75%. When it's reproduced in the typical 4/C printing process, it's going to be broken down into solid cyan or magenta, but using dots at varying sizes to replicate the percentage, like this: And when you mix in percentages of yellow, you get a much wider possibility of colors:
