3/2/2018 Topic: aliens #v2 #2? imatonkatoo	I've had a good look too and can't find it. It's something I'm looking at on Ebay. This is a close up of the CGC label.

7/1/2018 Topic: CGC case crack imatonkatoo	If the case is cracked it's not classed as a graded book is it? I think I read that somewhere anyway.
7/7/2018 Topic: Tonka's Tittilations imatonkatoo	Going to concentrate more on the older comics now. Haven't got many at all. Some bits and bobs in my arsenal. Plus some of the full runs I have. Just need a little push to finish some of them off. edited by imatonkatoo on 7/7/2018
7/7/2018 Topic: Suggestions for new reads. imatonkatoo	I'm starting to collect the older stuff but I wont read them. The only reason I wont read them is I have this little quirk where I can't start in the middle of something and carry on as though there haven't been others before it. Same with films I have to do it all in order. I suppose I can start a new arc on the original. I loved The Vision mini series where he tried to live a normal family life. Action comics are on my pull list at the mo but (never say never) a little too daunting thinking about reading all of them, if it's even possible to read them all. Are they on digital format somewhere? I think I want to read some superhero stuff. Classics like Superman, Fantastic Four (really enjoyed Ultimate Spider-Man) etc etc. Not too fussed about Batman though will give it a go if recommended. TIA
7/7/2018 Topic: Steve Ditko dead at age 90 imatonkatoo	Sad news
7/7/2018 Topic: What conventions are you going to this year? imatonkatoo	I will be going to the Birmingham one in November. https://www.mcmcomiccon.com/birmingham/ Hopefully go to the London one too in October. https://www.mcmcomiccon.com/london/ Need to get to a comic con in the States one day.
7/8/2018 Topic: Tonka's Tittilations imatonkatoo	I got mine from here. https://www.directofficesupply.co.uk/silverline-filing-cabinets-b11 The make is Silverline. Just counted my Action comics. I have 37 out of 1000. Mixed bag of silver and modern. 😢🤞
7/9/2018 Topic: Tonka's Tittilations imatonkatoo	Really not sure about the grades. Will have a proper look and upload a scan this week sometime. They probably look better than what they are being in Mylites.
7/10/2018 Topic: Tonka's Tittilations imatonkatoo	I have never graded a comic before. I hazard a very loose guess at 7.0 for the Swamp Thing And a 5.0 for Sub-Mariner Just noticed a slight tear at the bottom. edited by imatonkatoo on 7/10/2018
7/10/2018 Topic: Tonka's Tittilations imatonkatoo	Dunno why I'm down as guest. I'm logged on.
7/10/2018 Topic: Comic Book Men the end imatonkatoo	Love this series. Gutted it's finished. Has anybody been to the Stash?
7/11/2018 Topic: Tonka's Tittilations imatonkatoo	Ha no mate. Takes a lot to upset me. 👍 Really appreciate the input. I suppose ignorance is bliss. Going to start having more of a go at grading as it is part and parcel of the collecting side of comics. I hardly ever open books I don't read as I feel that might cause damage. When I see sellers with a photo of the book opened flat to show the inside I just think is that causing damage. When I read a book I read it very gingerly. Careful to only open it enough to be able to read it. So I must care about grades somewhere inside. I must be a sellers dream. 😁 Just purchased Action Comics 290 at VF for £50.00 and Avengers 57 graded 4.0 so will have a proper go at grading them later. See if my grade compares with theirs. Paid £100 for the Avengers. Paid over the odds for it but I really wanted this one for Vision. Lets see if I can bring myself to open it. 👍 Man, it would be a dream to win the world cup. Not sure we could beat France. Though Croatia match tonight is going to be a good one.
7/11/2018 Topic: Tonka's Tittilations imatonkatoo	Just had a look at the Action Comics 290. I graded it in-between a 6.0 to 7.0. Messaged the seller as he sold it as 8.0 very Fine. I'm pretty sure it's not an 8.0. Tiny 5mm tear in the front cover dents and quite a big crease on the back cover. Though can I question it as I am a noob at grading?
7/12/2018 Topic: Tonka's Tittilations imatonkatoo	I really hope Croatia beat France now. Will be good to see a new country win it. They deserve the gold star on their shirts. Will be a good final.
7/13/2018 Topic: Suggestions for new reads. imatonkatoo	Just puta subscription in for FF AS and Superman. 👍
7/14/2018 Topic: Update the site imatonkatoo	How many comics come out a week vs how many people to put the comics on this site? Why the big rush to see your comics on here straight away? Patience is a virtue, good things come to those that wait etc etc. It's got to be difficult to keep up with everything as it happens in the comic book world. I do believe the guys here volunteer too.
7/14/2018 Topic: head-rush/jokerbangedquinn back issues imatonkatoo	That is an excellent collection. I'm guessing this is just a few of your books you own? How long have you been collecting?
7/14/2018 Topic: Gilgandra Back Issues 2.0 imatonkatoo	Another nice collection. Will post my CGC later for your perusal.
