2/10/2018 Topic: Doomsday Clock bringing back Justice Society radiotto	I blogged about this... http://blog.comicspriceguide.com/2018/02/05/doomsday-clock-johnny-thunder-and-the-future/ As a HUGE Justice Society fan, I am desperate for the original team to return, but I have two questions for you: 1) Do you believe DC is bringing the original JSA back? 2) How convinced are you that the writers will use them correctly? edited by radiotto on 2/10/2018
2/11/2018 Topic: Doomsday Clock bringing back Justice Society radiotto	Not changing the characters or creating new versions of them a la the Earth 2 series. I'd like their history to be intact somehow.
2/17/2018 Topic: Spider-Man villains vs. Batman villains radiotto	In my latest blog post here on CPG, I make the following claim: Spider-Man's rogues gallery is second only to Batman's rogues gallery What do you think? Oh, and here's the blog: http://blog.comicspriceguide.com/2018/02/17/carnage-green-goblin-the-terrifying-red-goblin/ edited by radiotto on 2/17/2018

2/19/2018 Topic: Underdog Free Comic Book Day radiotto	Well, then that is just a DIFFERENT mistake, because it isn't a variant cover, it is an entirely different issue.
2/20/2018 Topic: What do you thnk of Marvel's "Fresh Start?" radiotto	After going through all the Legacy renumbering stuff last year, Marvel decided it was too complicated, so they're launching a bunch of new #1s. Is Marvel in danger of alienating their longtime readers? Here are the details, including the video trailer for what they're calling the Fresh Start initiative: http://blog.comicspriceguide.com/2018/02/20/marvel-reversing-course-and-calling-it-fresh-start/
2/23/2018 Topic: Chance of second Avengers-Justice League crossover radiotto	Scott Snyder - who writes for DC - congratulated the writer of the upcoming Avengers #1 - Jason Aaron - on Twitter. Then Aaron suggested another Justice League vs. Avengers book. Who else besides me would LOVE to see that again?!? With both teams in the movies now, their awareness to the average person may be at its peak. The time is right! Here is the exchange:
3/1/2018 Topic: Cover Swipes the list radiotto	There are SO many! My first thought is All-Star Comics #3, but I cannot think of any specific swipes. SOMEONE will help me here! Fantastic Four #1 Marvel Age #14 Comic Book Guy #1 Ren & Stimpy Show Special Captain Planet #4 Alpha Flight #12 All-New Alpha Flight #12 Fantastic Four #249 Superman #8 Trio #4 edited by radiotto on 3/2/2018
3/1/2018 Topic: Chance of second Avengers-Justice League crossover radiotto	Yeah, they did this thing where EVERY version of EVERY person who had been a JLAer or Avenger had at least a cameo during a huge battle. They even got all 30+ of Wasp's costumes in there! I bought it as a box set that included the behind the scenes material. Quite enjoyable to read all that! edited by radiotto on 3/6/2018
3/4/2018 Topic: Cover Swipes the list radiotto	Thought of one more: X-Men 138 New Mutants 99 And there HAS to be some for Amazing Spider-Man 50 (Spider-Man No More)
3/6/2018 Topic: Writers of comic movies and buying soon to be key radiotto	Draven's point is valid though...the writers and movie execs that greenlight things would know at the pitch which characters are being considered. They could certainly get a jump on the market before any of those ideas become public knowledge. What am I saying?? People that make comic book movies don't read comic books! (Snarkiness level - 100)
3/6/2018 Topic: The Terrifics radiotto	What are your thoughts on the new DC team The Terrifics? Obviously a call-back to the Fantastic Four. I like seeing Mr. Terrific lead a team again. And I have always liked Plastic Man & Metamorpho, although can't Metamorpho do pretty much everything that Plas can do? I would have liked to see Phantom Lady (Sandra Knight) as the "Invisible Woman" of the group instead of a new Phantom Girl. Here is my blog post about the concept: http://blog.comicspriceguide.com/2018/03/05/are-the-terrifics-a-fantastic-four-clone/ edited by radiotto on 3/6/2018
3/8/2018 Topic: Ruk's list-Who has the best collection radiotto	I would like to be on the list! Gold Member Total Collection Value : $28,471.94 Issue Collection Count : 6,913
3/9/2018 Topic: Ruk's list-Who has the best collection radiotto	I'm SOMEBODY now!! Thanks Ruk!!
3/9/2018 Topic: 9,000 comics to sell....... radiotto	Yeah, CanadaGuy, I have over 6,000 in my collection, and I had to enter them one series at a time, and in some cases one issue at a time. It felt REALLY damn good when I completed the process though!!
3/13/2018 Topic: Types of Comic Book Collectors radiotto	I am a combo of Completist and Look There's a Squirrel! There are certain characters I will always buy, like Moon Knight and Justice Society, but I will certainly take a flier on something new. And just like Ron said at the end of the article, I am also a sucker for a good story.
3/28/2018 Topic: Comic Book Convention Survival Guide radiotto	I am going to put together a Comic Book Convention Survival Guide for the blog and wonder what are the things you do to make Cons more enjoyable for you. What do you do to prepare? What do you do once you arrive? What do you avoid? How do you get the most out of a con?
3/28/2018 Topic: What conventions are you going to this year? radiotto	I am going to Motor City Comic Con in Novi, MI, in May. Speaking of Cons, I started a thread here in the Forums and could use some feedback. Thanks in advance! https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/topic12124-comic-book-convention-survival-guide.aspx
3/30/2018 Topic: Easter Special - The Best Bunnies in Comics radiotto	Here is my story in the CPG Blog with my ranking of the best rabbits, bunnies, and hares in comic book history: http://blog.comicspriceguide.com/2018/03/31/easter-special-9-best-bunnies-in-the-biz/ I limited the list to only include those leporine characters that ORIGINATED in comic book. So no Bugs, Roger, Easter, Peter, etc. Let me know what I got right, what I got wrong, and who your favorite is. edited by radiotto on 3/31/2018
4/4/2018 Topic: Harley Quinn's first official DC appearrance radiotto	Everyone know that Harley Quinn's first comic book appearance is in The Batman Adventure #12. However, that book is out of canon, so shouldn't her first OFFICIAL DC universe appearance be the 1999 one-shot Batman:Harley Quinn? Check out my CPG blog post about it, and comment below. http://blog.comicspriceguide.com/2018/04/05/harley-quinns-1st-appearance-are-you-an-innie-or-an-outie/ edited by radiotto on 4/5/2018
