Hi all. I'm going to be sending some comics through the post, and I'd like a little help making sure they arrive in good shape. Is there a post or thread showing how to package slabs for shipping? All I saw was one that was dealing with non-graded books. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

In your opinion, how long should I wait before I send the artwork out? Is there an average time it takes to have his bank pay mine? I'm going to ask when I deposit it, but now I'm a little worried. It's not an amount I can easily repay.

I'm getting a cheque. That should be ok, shouldn't it? He's been on CAF for about a year. That's the person! This has put my mind at ease. Thanks!

Hi all! I've just been offered a decent amount for my commissioned artwork on Comic Art Fans. He's in Cudahy, WI. A. Williams. I'm not getting any bad vibes from the buyer but I want to be sure it's above board.

Also, The Rocket shot left handed and blondie shoots right. ;)

Mugi-chan is my spirit animal.

"Sick". I hate seeing that in threads... "Dude, that book is SICK!" Get it some meds, then. >.< Sorry, grumpy old man who can't get wit da yoof.

I think Mr. and Mrs. Shill got that one.

My ex's name is Nicola. I hate Nicola. I kid. I hate the ex, not all people named Nicola.

I can't draw to save my life, so that'd be out. As for the comics, I've had no passion for them for years. They do nothing for me, and I really think they'd be better off with someone who wants them. They're sitting in the box I sent them back to Canada inside. I haven't looked at them for more than 2 years, so I think I wouldn't miss them. The only problem is trying to sell them off. No one in Calgary seems to be buying and I'm not sure even my uncle's flea market stall will take them.

I think the best way I can help and get to feeling better is to buy KyoAni stuff. To that end I will take all my graphic novels and collectibles to my uncle's flea market stall and let him sell them for me, and use the money to buy as much anime and manga as I can. At least then I'll feel like I'm DOING something. Something constructive.

I think it's too soon for me to think about. I'm still in shock, I guess. I can't see the philosophical side yet. I'm not religious, but I know energy is neither created or destroyed. I just hope that the energy these wonderful people had is somewhere good.

I don't even know if I can. The one thing that gave me a little joy is forever linked to some scumbag taking 33 innocent lives. People I will never meet who gave me hope. People who will never see their families again. It's an open wound. Sorry, I'm being quite maudlin about it. But, nothing I have collected has given me anything near this level of happiness. Comics didn't do it. Hockey cards didn't, game used hockey sticks didn't. I can't watch K-On! or Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid or Violet Evergarden again. I can't re-read the manga. Maybe later, much later, but not now. Hollow feeling. Like I'm empty of happiness, and there's nothing left to replace it. Sorry Kav, feel free to ignore me. I'm just down and I don't know how to get back up.

Kick in the stomach. I felt sick when I saw it. I suffer from severe depression, and had a 16 year relationship end two years ago. Two suicide attempts. Then I saw the anime "K-On!", and it made me feel just a little bit better. Some of their work made me cry (A Silent Voice, K-On! episode 24, Violet Evergarden episode 10), but most gave me such indescribable joy. I am still crying about it off and on. I feel so helpless. I want to help KyoAni buy I live on welfare. I can't afford to but manga and Blu-Rays even though I very much want to. I just want to do SOMETHING. Who would have thought my 600th post would be this? I wanted to spend it with something silly, like saying "600th post and all I want is a Moon Knight #1! KIDDING!"...but this is what I get. I'm sorry to be so down about this. It's hit harder than I thought it would. So much evil in the world. :'(
