I posted a topic yesterday on IG asking if Matt Nelson should keep his job after this scandal, it got a lot of responses that were about 50/50 for and against. I don't personally know Matt, but if I did it wouldn't change my opinion of this situation, which is that this is a bad failure on management to make sure that proper chain of custody and security measures were/are in place. First there is a lack of proper security measures to prevent the reholder scandal that just happened, and now there is a lack of proper chain of custody and basic security protocols in place to prevent any one employee from having too much access to multiple departments where there would be opportunities for bad actions to take place. Whatever the reasons are that these didn't exist, the fact that they didn't exist is a clear failure of management. Whoever is in charge of the internal security of the facility also should be replaced imo for a lack of understanding and recognizing the risks from having that employee overlap exist in different areas in the first place. Some situations can be cleaned up without the need for change, some situations require changes, I think this one requires changes.

This checks all the boxes it needed to imo, 4 main issues that had to be addressed and they did. 1. Compensation for those who bought fraudulent slabs 2. A released list of all affected slabs 3. Criminal prosecution 4. Improved security features on slabs - but it would be good to show us what you did to make sure the youtube videos cant be replicated anymore. The list of all affected slabs is going to be big and let's hope it's comprehensive.

I found some more interesting items in the foreign comic world. For potential price variants, I had these from Comic Forum in Spain. They are half circle price increase stickers for their comics, I've only seen them on GI Joe so far but the potential is obviously there for other issues since that is their standard pricing format and they use the same font, sizing and layout. It's odd the prices went up and not down. Also just to keep everything clear and prevent any carryover here from other spots, it's pretty clear there are just going to be disagreements on how to classify some parts of foreign comics. I see it just like Hulk 180/181 and such. I respect anyone's opinion in the community who does the same, but this is not the place to tell anyone that their opinions are wrong or incorrect, we are just not going to always agree on some stuff and that's fine, but let's not act like one opinion is worth more than anyone else's. All are welcome in the foreign comic community and all opinions are equal in value. On another note, I found a 1951 comic actually produced in Ireland, very odd and very cool. That's just one more reason I love the world of foreign comics, finding stuff like that! I hope everyone has a safe and happy Thanksgiving!

1939 Triumph Magazine (1st U.K. Superman reprints)
HotKey replied to archiefan's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
This is from downthetubes.net "First published in 1924, Triumph, published by Amalgamated Press, was a hugely successful adventure paper of the period, the title now owned by Rebellion Publishing. 21 issues featured reprints of Superman, the character first making his debut in Britain only a year after the publication of Action Comics #1, June 1938. Reprints of early Superman stories were, largely, adapted into the picture and text format presentation that was very much the norm of the day in British children’s and teenage titles of the time, and ran in Issues 772 – 792 (with a house advertisement featuring Superman in Issue 771), the Kryptonian hero returning in Issues 807 – 814." -

*dusts off the thread* Great info in here, I came across a few of these in a consignment batch and they are a pain to research because of the title, but thankfully I found this thread after some digging! Unfortunately none of these have the comic inside, but they do have one of the Superman covers from 1939, looks like it is the 2nd Superman cover in the UK, so still a great piece of history! -
It's done, so now what? ASM run completed.
