  1. I'm comic book broke, or I would've claimed some of those Subbies.
  2. When I was a teen in the late 1970s and collecting Avengers back issues, I traded my Giant-Size X-Men #1 to a classmate for his Avengers #57, which I still have. I'd do it all again, but I regret not getting another copy over the past 30 years when I had the funds. I'm just not a big X-Men fan and would rather have high-grade issues of Avengers.
  3. Not yet, but I'm in the process of ordering one. All I know is what has been said here about what's coming. He did Spidey, Avengers and FF to start. He let me thumb through what he had there and it looked magnificent! I have thumbed through both Spidey and Avengers. I have not seen FF yet. He wasn't at the December show he usually shows up at.
  4. I just found this thread. I know the owner of the books that were scanned for this project. He knows I'm an Avengers fan, and he summoned me to his table at a comic show to look at that edition before it was released. The books are basically treasury edition size and much thicker, obviously. He said the only problem they had with scanning was with the annuals. He said he took a very low grade ASM Annual #1 that he had in his stock and basically took it apart in order to scan it for the project. He knew it was an expensive book even in that grade, but he said it was worth it.
  5. I met Tom at HeroesCon a few years ago. The line wasn't long, and he chatted with a couple of us for 15-20 minutes. The most interesting thing he said was that he also colored a great bit of the books he worked on. He got lambasted by Marvel for coloring the Vision wrong in Avengers #93. He signed a copy of Avengers #81 for me. I meant to get him to sign what's left of my original Avengers #93 (which is signed by Roy and Neal) cover, but he never returned after that. He was an extremely nice man! RIP!
  6. The girl playing Wanda entered just before we did. She was as advertised!
