The only reason I go to the photobucket site is to find images I'd posted before a hard drive crash. I've been going through the posts on my messageboard and replacing all of the photobucket spam images. Strangely though, I've got one account through them where the images show fine. |

So how do you feel about Macfarlane?😜😄😄😄 Seeing one commercial for that show was enough to know it would suck.
It would appear that *maybe* I don't like his work. I went to see the movie Ted. During the middle of the movie, I needed to use the restroom. I walked out to the lobby, used the restroom, and then started walking back into the theater. I stopped and thought about it a second. I decided that I didn't even want to see the rest of the movie. I left the theater and was glad I did. Harsh language or situations don't offend me at all. I just don't think anything he's involved with is clever or creative. |

80% of the posts on the mesageboard involve someone informing them that something isn't listed. They aren't allocating resources to stay caught up, so I gave up informing them. I gave up back when there were regular posts by people who were updating the site. |

Fox's The Gifted and ABC's The Inhumans

Inhumans is horrible. The characters have been wandering around in the woods. Black Bolt can't talk without destroying anything. Medusa lost her abilities. Triton showed up for about 5 minutes in a rubber suit. Gorgon does an occasional stomp. Karnak has his abilities impaired, so his his only notable superpower is getting laid by some attractive girl that he's just met.
The Gifted is just more rehash of mutants being stalked as villains. Most of the shows are implausible characters that are boring. |

Neat... but it's always a disappointment to see partial comics. |

Thor: Ragnarok

I felt this movie was one of the worst Marvel movies. The attempts at comedy were tedious to watch. Grandmaster was the worst character. Valkyrie was better in the movie than she was in the comics. If they can't do anything better with Thor, I hope they quit giving him his own line of movies. This and Guardians of the Galaxy II were both duds in my opinion. Dr. Strange was a short-lived highlight of this movie. |

Venom: Lethal Protector #1 - Italian Variant

It's a pain buying from Italy. It's a gamble too. I had to wire a seller money through Western Union. Then I had to trust the guy and wait patiently hoping he was honest and that my comics would not get lost or stolen in transit. There were (are?) a lot of comic shops in Italy. I can't help you on your quest.
I can post a couple of images of an Italian comic distributor's catalog. This is the Italian equivalent to Previews for ordering comics.

So it was started at least, but no telling when they may finish. And the links to pics on your Jan post are now 404 error pages, so that doesn't help CPG see what's missing. That site is the author's, but he doesn't seem to have pics of those back issues now.
I see this site has most with pics?: http://www.comiccollectorlive.com/Index/CoverTitle.aspx?id=89aa93fe-a806-44c5-ab01-d5492c9afefe
CPG staff is very busy getting the new site finished, so stuff like this is taking a back seat even more than usual.

They've had plenty of time to respond already. Don't hold your breath, because my bet is that they aren't even reading what you write. |

Why do I feel as though I'll be looking at a smartphone interface on a 32" monitor.
Either way, iot's a poor business practice to completely ignore customers and that's pretty much what happens here on a consistent basis. |
