HOLY STICKER PRICES, BATMAN!
Riddle me this. Three vintage sticker packs from the 1970′s. Featuring some of DC’s best known characters, despite the dubiously missing Superman. Now why in the world would two of the three be bid on, but the third remains bidless? This world is full of mysteries. 1 bid. 1 bid. Zero bids. Like I [...]
Don’t blame me, I voted for Howard.
Duck not Dean. I’m sure there’s a Mallard Fillmore joke in there somewhere too, but that’s one of the worst comic strips I’ve ever seen… worse than Cathy, even.
Happy Prezident’s Day.
It’s President’s day, and what better way to celebrate than by reading the adventures of a young, idealistic President voted in by an unprecedented out pouring of young voter support, trying to reign in the big businesses that got him elected? No, don’t go reading the news, that’s just gonna bum you out. I’m talking [...]
Open your Bat-wallet…
Want to own the first ever appearance of Batman? Well, if you’re filthy stinking, disgustingly rich, you could go and visit the wonderful folks at Heritage Auction Galleries, who currently have a record setting auction going for that very issue. $418,250 with 10 days to go, good God. As for the rest of us? Well, [...]
Bone. Fone Bone.
Despite my interest in comics, I’m not much for “kid friendly” material. You know that friend who thinks Harry Potter is the best thing on earth, that liking modern cartoons is cool both in a legitimate and “this is ironic hehe” way? That’s not me. However, there’s some universal appeal to all ages appealing material. [...]
J.R. JR
It’s not often that a father-son lineage could both be considered among the best of their generation. Basically it comes down to the family Kubert and the John Romitas (Sr. and Jr.). John Romita Jr. has arguably grown into an even larger legend than his father – with over thirty years (and counting!) of work [...]
PICK 5: Iceman
Inspired by the snow? Yeah, I like that. Howzabout some Iceman. No, not Val Kilmer. Not Chuck Liddell either. This guy. Bobby Drake. Lovable loser? Maybe not even lovable. I always liked Iceman, but of the original five X-Men, he’s the only one who never really established as a major character. He hasn’t been a [...]
Aren’t they cold?
If there’s snow on the ground play ball? Love is snow blind? So many bad jokes, so little time…
Abominable Slurpee Cup
Arctic Burst flavor please. Shout outs to m0nster_one.
Let it snow, let it snow.
Given the recent weather, some snow themed entries seemed appropriate. Here’s three, all courtesy of DC. Which one’s coolest? I’m going to give the nod to Hawkman and his goggle wearing, bat-winged, mini abominable snowmen opponents. They’re just more creative than low level Bat-rogue The Sinister Snowman (a half yeti half man with Mr Freeze [...]
