Lol, haven't bought I comic in awhile, guess I'm getting withdrawal that's manifesting into silliness. Just trying to have a little light hearted fun. Went out on a limb, seems it bombed. Lesson learned, never, ever joke around about a Tech 27. Collecting doesn't have to be that serious, right? Happy April, welcome spring after what feels like a very long winter. https://www.cbr.com/april-fools-pranks-in-comics/ Edited April 1, 2021 by path4play Tri-Color Brian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really sad...must be the Investor influence... We should stop calling them comic books and call them "little paper investments with drawn art"...

They do take me back to the good feelings of being 8, which actually is sort of the point for me. Its like feeling 8, but with the full expense of adulthood.

Guess I'll go update the values of my 7,500 Little Paper Investments with Drawn Art... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KCOComics Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 You shouldn't have put April Fools in the title. That would have gotten your views up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't (have it in the title) originally but seemed that tricking people with no reward/payoff once they clicked wasn't going over real well, so I added a link to https://www.cbr.com/april-fools-pranks-in-comics/ and changed the title in order not to fool anyone with an April Fool's - which of course then actually defeated the original purpose. And all my comic brethren get to follow the craziness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gino2paulus2 Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 I didn’t see this till now but I would have enjoyed the prank!!! My son came from school a few years ago and said they made Brownies at school and asked if I wanted one. I said of course I do buddy!! He got in his book-bag and pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to me and said there you go Dad hope you like it. On the paper written in brown marker was a giant letter E!! A BROWN E!!! Totally fell for it!! 😂 path4play, comicjack and Yorick 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
