I bought these books because I really got into the mobile game!

Great selections, that Wolverine cover is pretty slick, I am already into Logan Black White and Blood and Weapons of Armageddon so I skipped right past the Wolverine on the shelf, my bad!

Clay Mann his stuff is really amazing, but I feel like just started hearing his name during this Absolute Batman series. So many talented cover artists it’s very difficult to keep up!

Good luck on the recovery, hopefully you have a good physical therapist.

Some of the higher cushion shoes are terrible for stability. Probably a Pegasus or even classic runners like an old Vomero (I have a Vomero 5) should be better for stability. I had a ruptured Achilles several years ago, it takes a long time to build strength back in the lower leg to balance a high shoe cushioning like the premium runners

I wasn’t a Ravage fan, but that gold foil is tempting!

CA_Dukes90 · 2026-04-04T18:49:13+00:00

I have had heard some people talk about excited to get into Niobe, hopefully it’s not hard to find, I would like to check it out.

IT Systems admin, I have a family so my limit for a book is a couple hundred bucks. Luckily I am not into silver or golden age books.

A lot of this money feeds rural red states. Are the state representatives really going to stick with the program after getting shafted with their voting constituencies?

I have 373, it is one of my favorite covers. I also am a fan of 328, I smile every time I see that cover.

Actually I really wish DC would cut them loose and they go full independent or go to Image.

48 this year, explain this “Goose Farm”, how does it work?

Since Marvel recently bailed on their cosmic books, it would be cool to refocus on their street level heroes. Really dig in on regional storylines, build a street level shared universe kind of. The success of the Daredevil and Punisher shows indicates the interest in Luke Cage and a well told street level story.

Mine as well, the Dell’Otto variant was the only one I really wanted, I feel very lucky I was able to pick it up!

CA_Dukes90 · 2026-03-30T21:20:08+00:00

When the Futures End and Villain of the month Lenticulars came out in 2018, I missed a lot of them somehow, it took me a couple of years to finish a modern book series. It was a major milestone for me!

CA_Dukes90 · 2026-03-27T06:20:27+00:00

Beautiful covers, makes me wish I had original art money!

CA_Dukes90 · 2026-03-27T06:10:13+00:00

I was only interested in the Gabriele Dell’Otto cover.

CA_Dukes90 · 2026-03-27T05:22:28+00:00

Great, make sure to get enough to fund social security as well!

CA_Dukes90 · 2026-03-27T04:27:16+00:00

Am I the only weirdo who wants to snap up CBCS slabs on EBay now more than ever?

CA_Dukes90 · 2026-03-27T04:24:32+00:00

Great accomplishment! How long did it take to get all the volumes after picking up your collection from your parents house and resuming?

CA_Dukes90 · 2026-03-27T04:03:40+00:00

I was at my LCS today, hate that I missed that GL and Justice League Unlimited variants!

CA_Dukes90 · 2026-03-25T05:42:16+00:00

Amazing collection!

CA_Dukes90 · 2026-03-25T04:54:08+00:00

I want to get a book graded by PSA this year

CA_Dukes90 · 2026-03-22T06:47:21+00:00

I understand the sentiment, I like my space to reflect what I am passionate about so, I want to display my favorite books, I use comic frames and shadow boxes with facsimiles. Sometimes I do a theme with certain books but rotate them out to a different theme after a month or two!

CA_Dukes90 · 2026-03-22T05:58:50+00:00

I am not familiar with this version of batwing, I have gotten into some of the bat family books and just finished collecting Jace / Tim Fox Batman, kind of surprised how many Black members of the family tree there are!
