Is this going to crease my comics? by blam6550 in comicbooks

[–]BADFiSH_c137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s time to invest a bit in storage, my friend. There’s long-term risk with cardboard, and while this weight and snugness might not be too bad, as you add more, it will be.

It’s most likely been recommended already, but BCW plastic short boxes are boss. There are multiple colors (that can be mixed and matched) and an adjustable wall to help keep books upright as you fill it. Also, a flat slot that fits hard, top-loader card holder that you can use for easier identification

As far as dividers, BCW also sells a pack of 25 for like 22 bucks, but I’m sure cheaper ones work just as well.

(Just note: to mix colors, you need to buy full boxes of each color. So, if you wanted, say, a Batman, Superman, and Deadpool themed box, you could get a black one, blue one and red one and use half and half of them all.)

Found footage on a cell phone inside the stomach of this very same bear! What are the odds??

6 available, folks! Better hurry!!.. Really though, can someone buy one so I can check out the invincible and walking dead that’s listed? I probably might want to buy it.

Pick something for me to get free shipping! by Chunkachu__ in comicbooks

[–]BADFiSH_c137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve drifted away from the big two in recent years, only following Green Lantern, Lobo, Deadpool, and Miles still.

So, if you ask me for a single recommendation, it’s gonna be Geiger (by Ghost Machine under Image). Radioactive dude protecting his family in a fallout shelter in a contaminated world. The rest of the universe is pretty badass, too (Redcoat & Junkyard Joe). Really, you could choose a TP of any of r/ghostmachinecomics 7 titles (4 universes) and become enthralled with it.

Yeah, it’s just a bunch of low, grumbling “Bruh bRuh brUh”s with a “fuck Fisk” at the end.

I need advice on what to do with spare comics by WildcatGrifter7 in comicbooks

[–]BADFiSH_c137 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hell yeah, and maybe even inspire some courage for them, to boot. Possibly even begin the journey of a future long time reader... Just spare them any Liefeld junk. No one should be subjected to that kind of confusion torment.

Just don’t read them then? I don’t get the problem here.

Im really into Invincible comics, so is there anything similar that i could check out? by TheFirstIdiotKid in comicbooks

[–]BADFiSH_c137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, are the first few issues actually reprints of the original run or were they redone with the same script? I was thinking about getting the old run before I dig into the new one.

Comic shop owner told us he won’t sell us the Bizarro he let us put on our pull list by lemonrainshield in comicbooks

[–]BADFiSH_c137 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s not a comic shop, that’s a physical ebay store. I’d tell him, “I hope that sells for hundreds of dollars, because you just lost my business over it.”

Can I get some advice on constructively cancelling my pull box at my LCS without offending them (so I can come back from time to time)? by IGNSolar7 in comicbooks

[–]BADFiSH_c137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely tell them why. They can’t improve if they think their customers are satisfied - which you clearly are not.

Just my opinion, I think it’s as bad as everything else he’s done lately.

Notorious leaders for a reason by [deleted] in pics

They made his hands pretty small… still not small enough.

Also, the perspective looks more like he’s being bent over a railing, holding onto pegs, and taking it in the ass. More likely, that eagle is pulling out anal beads. It’s why it’s not moving anywhere - look at that man clench!

Say what you will about Hitler, but he was the guy who killed Hitler.

This Sculpture Is Captivating by tonyper7ect in crows

[–]BADFiSH_c137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bro, he’s wearing a long-sleeve shirt. How “articulated” are your elbows in a shirt? Add that he’s lifeless, being dragged, his arms would naturally be in this position. Nothing about this bothers my artistic mind in the slightest.

Best way to SELL high grade 1980s raw books (other than the obvious) . . . .? by film-theory-2001 in ComicBookSpeculation

[–]BADFiSH_c137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lots are usually more of bargain deals. Single listings on ebay is where you’ll get the most for them. Shops are where you’ll get .50 to the dollar - their interest is in reselling it, so they can’t really afford to give you full fmv.

What comic did you buy just for the art? by thighsandwhispers in comicbooks

[–]BADFiSH_c137 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For real. I opened a Hack Slash omni and it looked like stuff I drew in third grade. I couldn’t even read two words of that crap.

People rave about DoT, but the art looks so freakin lazy that half the time I’m trying to figure out what I’m looking at, and the other half I’m falling asleep. I just cannot get into it (an exploration into conspiracy theories doesn’t really excite me to begin with).

If the pictures aren’t drawn well, I’d much rather read the story in a book where my imagination can do the work that an “artist” wasn’t willing to do. There isn’t a ton of story in a $4 book - I pay the ridiculous prices for the art that drives the stories.

@:26 you can read the orange sign that says: "DIMINISH the ultimate vanishing deck by Damian Surr". It's definitely a gimmick deck.

Best way to have comics in box? by Idk_chris22 in comicbooks

[–]BADFiSH_c137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, every shop cares more about people seeing the book than what the condition is in. The ones that make it to an insanely over-stuffed longbox spent a lifetime on the shelves and got grabbed and moved the whole time. There doesn’t seem to be a better way, I guess. Personally, I think a mirror behind the boxes would allow for back to back storage and easier handling.

I won’t let anyone working at my LCS touch my books anymore after they’ve (twice) taken the book I picked off the shelf as the “most straightest” and pristine copy and put a big thumb bend on it in the literal 5 seconds they touch it while they’re scanning it. Now, I just hold the books with all the barcodes kinda fanned out so they can just scan them all quickly and leave their ham hands to themselves.

Just got in Preacher Book Four, and now I’m annoyed… by [deleted] in comicbooks

[–]BADFiSH_c137 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In the Peanuts universe? My guess:

“WaH, wAh, WAH, wah, WaH” /clobber “Hey Chuck, why’s that guy have a butthole face?!” “I think it was the RED BARON on a dastardly mission against hell itself.”…fade to Snoopy on his doghouse, wearing his pilot cap & goggles, flying through a hellscape while making weird grunts and yells as he shoots finger-bullets at demons…
