  1. My LCS allowed 2 free comics. Got 'Fabulous Freak Bros.' underground reprinting some hilarious and political stories along with "Fat Freddy's Cat" story, thus 8/10. Also picked up cartoony 'Star Wars' that had a nice summary of the various comic titles and difference btwn the generations of timelines on the inside cover so 6/10. No need for me to pick up 'History of Overstreet' as most of that was a reprint of FCBD comic a few years ago.
  2. Last time Todd McFarlane was at Calgary Expo, I remember kids lining up for 4.5 hours to get their parent's comics signed in the Big 4 Building. Even at the small Fan Expo Vancouver (FEV), folks lined up 3.5 hours waiting for McFarlane.
  3. So the vibe of the show was crowded, busy and the Bank of greggy was open for buying? Pics please.
  4. Also the Dept. # seems to be missing or blanked out from the inside of back cover ad, thus a FFE reprint of Superman 1.
  5. fyi, the original Chinese 30 episode version of '3-body Problem' is being broadcast as a TV marathon Sat. April 20, 2024 from PBS in Seattle, WA. English sub-titles.
  6. fyi, 'Dave Stevens: Drawn to Perfection' documentary (2022) can be streamed for free from Tubi. 1 hr 38 minutes, Stevens born in 1955, Dave Mandel, Russ Manning, Brinke at SDCC, and more.
  7. fyi, Grosnor-CGC did not show up for the 2.5 day Western Sports and Collectibles Show in the suburbs of Vancouver, BC for the weekend of April 14, 2024. Guess Grosnor picked up enough comics and VHS submissions at last week's huge Vancouver Comic and Toy Show's 2 day pop culture event.
  8. A Youtube video has been posted about this huge PNE Show with toy/comic footage from both Sat. and Sun. of this pop culture event. My tall white comic wall rack appears briefly within the first minute:
  9. How much is Blackrock/CGC billing us now to grade the quick press or full press not done by their own staff? Monetize every 'service' in 2024 for CGC business model.
  10. I sold my Spawn 1 for $45. Folks don't want the ones signed by colorist Ken Steacy locally. Collectors want raw copies for the Todd-father's sig. U will do great at Calgary Expo as long as the Bank of greggy visits your team.
  11. Was wondering why several Spawn #1's were being snapped up at the past weekend's PNE Show in Vancouver, BC.
  12. Indie band Ultimate Fall-out will be opening for the Grey-tones who are promoting their hit ballad 'Shalla-bal.'
  13. Heard there was an all ladies rock n roll band out of L.A., CA. called the Robert Belles. The Schanes Bros. also getting good rotation out of Nashville, TN. Son of Robert Plant, Bud Plant, to release his solo album on Spotify soon. Also, the Geppis to debut their latest video on MTV Friday night.
  14. Buddy told me the lead singer of EC/DC jumps around in children's shorts on stage.
  15. Triple bill this weekend with Dude Rude, Adamantium opening for Valiant Overstock. Next week, AH! opens for the Marvel Zombies!
  16. 1. Tomato Red 2. The Polypropylenes 3. Acid Free 4. Fan Boy Double bill concert this weekend: Tengujo opening up for Methyl Cellulose!
  17. Have not read the book. Streamed up to episode 3 of '3-Body Problem' English version so far. Good special FX, historical science concepts, and character development so far. Central character is different from Chinese professor from the earlier 30 episode Chinese adaptation.
  18. There is a new mag size Batman series like Year One (1939) but with more detailed art by Mike Perkins. Cover homage to Batman silhouette from Detective 27.
  19. Thought this thread was about DC's Detective Chimp but I guess The Batman is OK.
  20. Or try streaming '1899' season 1. Would say it is better than 'Silo.' Mix of Bermuda Triangle, Titanic and X-files with nice twist ending but no budget for a season 2.
  21. About 1 week left countdown. Just heard that Eagabeeva, a big vintage comic dealer from Victoria, BC, will unexpectedly not be able to vend at this colossal pop culture PNE show.
