Wednesday, the best day of the week, new comic book day. It is like your birthday in the middle of each week (well, one where you buy your own presents.)
We open things up to hear from you. A free for all.
The 256th edition of the open forum!
Make sure to welcome Lucas Faschina, back on variants for his second week.
Did you know we have the forum up and running, you can check it out at the official CHU Forum site, go over and sign up.
As always we also want to hear about your weekly pickups.
So, What were your pick ups?
MCS asking $30.00 for the TMNT #98 1:10 out the gate…LOL
Let them ask…
If I recall 98 was the issue Anthony was speculating on because….I don’t recall…lol print run? Not a lot of store variants to run up the numbers like 97?
I was speculating something was gonna happen. Possibly a death. Jenny is here to stay but some one is on their way out very soon.
Ah yes, that was it. I’m guessing they’ll hold off until the big 100 for that…
Splinter dies….either in 99 or 100. 98 featured a bunch of new “mutants”.
Gonna die so we can bring him back to life again.. yeehaw!
I agree 100%. It’s coming.
this safe sex book from image reminds me of LOOKERS.
Nothing notable to spoil this week?
They left Rein in the 1940’s Marvel Universe alive and loving on her daddy so the window is open for future stories set anywhere from then until now since she shouldn’t age anymore than her father does. Only question is how long until the series with 15 variant covers for #1 is announced?
Did you notice the Bone Claws both Wolverines were sporting and it seemed like current Wolverine had died.
This is really a slow week
I know, I can’t think of anything to talk about. How’s it going with the house you talked about saving up for, Alana?
Very slow.
Picking up:
Five Years 4
Picked up in a half off back issue bin:
Legionnaires 7 (AH! swimsuit/mermaid cover)
1) I am now officially an empty-nester since the kid is finally off to college. Friends are asking me how soon is too soon to turn the kid’s room into a comic book man cave/tiki bar.
2) Debating on whether or not to see Amon Amarth on Friday. They are on my bucket list but I don’t want to have to sit through all of the opening bands beforehand.
How soon is too soon? Never. The moment she steps out of the room.
I do like the Legionnaires #7 cover. They are cheap on eBay https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=legionnaires+7&_sacat=63
I like it better than #16, which appears to be more popular and expensive.
Immortal hulk absolute carnage dale Keon codex (1:25 incentive) variant out next week has a sweet venom hulk cover. Already sold out most places. Midtown just put them up for $34. Tempting, but given it’s not a first I’m passing.
Still waiting for midtown to ship my venom hulk Deodato variants released last week!
I saw it as well, was like.. sweet cover, too bad I’m not spending $34 on it. I’ll wait a few weeks and snag for $15 or less more than likely.
