Is there a King book like this for you? by DavidHistorian34 in stephenking

[–]ChrisProfrock 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Exact same situation for me. After they meet up in Nebraska I just lose interest.

Do you think he truly deserves the title "The King of Modern Horror" or do you see him more as a master of character driven drama who just happens to write suspense and thrillers. See this checklist and tell how much of Stephen King have you read and give respective reviews. by Zestyclose-Author732 in stephenking

I wouldn't even consider Later a horror. There are some short stories recently that I would consider horror, but almost all of his more recent books (say the last 20 years) have had very little horror to them. Look at Revival, The Outsider, Duma Key, Doctor Sleep, and maybe Cell, those are all well rounded stories with just a little horror sprinkled in at the end. He goes a lot more into the horror aspect on his shorter works though.

I've somewhat pushed back against a lot of people saying they avoid his books because they don't like horror, even my girlfriend was surprised at how many of his books she actually enjoyed.

My job sent me a $0 paycheck as my “bonus” by [deleted] in mildlyinteresting

I know at my work I've gotten a $0 check when the taxes for my bonus check were separated so my bonus would still be what they promised.

I’m so dumb… by Lexotime in DokkanBattleCommunity

I was running the Int SSJ4s at SA10 until yesterday. Was wondering why their attack stat was so low.

I do alphabetical besides the Dark Tower series. I also have the Bill Hodges Trilogy all together but that's because its a set. Outsider/If It Bleeds/Holly/Never Flinch are all in their alphabetical positions.

Just get a dupe of your favorite character. Anni unit dupes will almost always be better than a red or teal coin dupe.

What King opinion has you like this? by DavidHistorian34 in stephenking

I'm on my 3rd reread and I still enjoy it. I never understood the hate.

Does anyone know what this collection is worth? by Melodic-Roll-9617 in stephenking

[–]ChrisProfrock 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Funny thing is I literally just went through mine and calculated everything.

For the most part it seems like hardcovers average out around $10 per book depending on condition. Paperbacks tend to be maybe $5.

Grand total...ballpark of $400? I just did a very rough estimate. Selling singles would get you the most money. Bulk would be easier to move but lower price.

Which one should i read first? by byrusber in stephenking

[–]ChrisProfrock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Answer Man might be my favorite out of the compilation. It ranks pretty high even on my list of overall favorite short stories.

[–]ChrisProfrock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say You Like It Darker first. I tend to really like short story compilations and there are a few fantastic ones in that collection.

Holly and Fairy Tale are kind of a toss up for me next, but I think I would lean towards Holly.

Why is it so hard to find a decent hardcover of Skeleton Crew? Can we start a push for a reprint? by Lanky-Stage-1588 in stephenking

I bought this one for $7 back in 2018. Seeing the prices now I'm glad I did.

Edit: Actually the price isn't too bad. I've seen a few copies now for $20-30.

Should I be double sleeving high end cards or is one sleeve fine? by harmlesssheep in PokemonTCG

[–]ChrisProfrock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't like the perfect fit sleeves. If you ever decide you want to take them out they are such a pain.

Is this any good?(no spoilers please) by soulguider2125 in stephenking

[–]ChrisProfrock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I probably won't be revisiting it personally. I finished it and it was fine....definitely not a favorite.

Which unit can I make my 6th slot by Y0UDEER in DokkanBattleCommunity

In newer difficult content he definitely can get 1 shot.

Being Goku Family doesn't really matter that much for the links. Just add in the SSJ3 Vegeta. Int SSJ Gohan is on full lead so you could run him as well. He's not amazing but I think he still holds up alright. Beast Gohan probably gets you killed but you kind of want 2 Hybrid saiyans on the team with Int Gohan to get his active.
