I was unable to find izombie 1 by title or publisher.




Yeah! it is a tuff one to work out. Some reason it won't let you find it by writing it in at all.

But don't worry it is there, Just go Publisher (DC), Click on the letter "I" & scroll down till the 9th one.

O.k. some new picks ups & one older movie to show off smile



Batman: The dark knight Returns Part 1 & 2.
Do i have to talk about these...1st DVD was Good. But the second was off the chart in awesomeness...Damn Darth Lightsabers
Part 1 was released in 2012 & part 2 in 2013. If you are young-en & have never read the best comic ever written (i mean no offence to anyone wink ) then watch these & buy the book.








Don't get me started on Coraline (it was brought up in the old Forum), One of the single best animation stop motion pictures ever. Has a creepy rating of 9/10. Yes this DVD came with old school 3D glasses Lol.
The Marvel anime version of Blade isn't too bad released in 2011.




Arise (Ghost in the Shell) Part 1 & 2.
It's a new re-imagining of the genre, It's starts of pretty good indeed. But the last episode kinda lacks. I could go on forever about the GITS universe. If your a fan then it's a must to watch. But as always nothing compares to the original movie.
Defentantly worth watching, I ache to see where it's headed next.

I'm not sure if I will be picking up another case soon or if I will wait. My girlfriend will be in town at the end of the month (Kairi likes Gil's movie thread), so I might not have the time, and I may also have other monetary priorities. On the plus side, she gets to be my lovely assistant at one of the shows.

Yay! I can't wait to be there again! Big Grin Yes, I do like that thread :P I look forward to getting to be an assistant at one of the shows! smile I'm sure it will be a lot of fun, and I am excited to go to one after not being able to for so long.




Good luck & have fun at the show guys.
I just updated my movie thread, Enjoy!

Nice books Doug!


Batmobile = Awesome

Supermobile = Awesome (I don't think I posted that scan on the new forum)

Spider-Mobile? Must also be awesome. I mean, it just stands to reason, right? It can't just be a ploy to sell toys. Marvel would never attach their brand to shoddy merchandise. He's one of the finest minds in the Marvel Universe, so if he is creating a Spider-Mobile, when he doesn't even really need a vehicle, it must be awesome!




Ha ha ha...I see your reason Doug, It must be practicable. Why else would he have it...Hmm maybe to get the ladies!!! squint

Nice HCs! I love trades and HCs. They have been the fastest growing format in my collection. My four drawer legal filing cabinet, two drawer letter filing cabinet, two three foot book shelves and several stacks on top and beside the filing cabinets are cover with them in. There are a number of series I collect only in trade or HC.



Yes i know you love the TPB's & HC's Ox...I'm fast becoming a fan also smile

A few more new back issues, Enjoy!

Spider-Man #35, NM. June 1993. If your new to the collecting game then this is a fair warning!!! Carnage is a ticking time-bomb. I have a few more to get to complete the "Maximum Carnage" epic. Oh yeah!





ASM Annual #27, NM. 1993. 1st App: Annex. Poly-bagged with the cards.




UXM #267, NM. September 1990. The 2nd Gambit on a cover & 3rd appearance of him over-all. A great book to get that's worth nothing. Gambit is a true sleeper at the moment. Grab them while his snoozing!

I'm never sure what to do with those bagged comics. I know most of them are not worth much, but I don't want to risk being wrong about what to do with them. I know the bags decay and can damage the comic and if you don't open them, you can't read them, but... Is removing them from the bag damaging it? I have a bunch that I've opened and kept the bag on the other side of the board...

And yes, Carnage is really starting to take off. When I was starting to get my ASM run, I was told to look for 3 or 4 issues that are becoming harder and harder to find, but aren't expensive. #410, where Carnage fights Ben Reilly, #429-430 where Carnage fights Silver Surfer, and the Maximum Carnage issues. So, yeah, good call on going for the Maximum Carnage issues. The non-ASM issues may not go as high, but they'll still do OK, I think.


Yep! i know Doug!...I have about 20+ poly-bagged books most are still in good nic. for there age.
I bought some TOPPS comics last year which each had 4 x cards in them. The bags where very icky indeed, So i was more then happy to discard them.

Hey! I had that #410 (hated the cover) Lol. I'm lucky to have the ASM #429-430. Theirs another (3rd one) that he appeared in with/as Silver Surfer. What If...? #108 "Carnage Cosmic" Harder to find.
