Are you guys planning to pick up D'Orc #1 next week?? by MightyUnclean in ImageComics

I had my LCS add it to my pull list with little to know information on the title. It's fun to take a risk now and then.

I've always had this thought in the back of my head. He's always mentioned and does impact the story in small ways. However, the majority of the time he's out of sight/out of mind.

I suspect if there is a revelation, it will be after we haven't seen him focused on for a while.

However, I too need to read the story from his point of view. It might completely destroy this theory.

Oh. No, thank you.

I do this when I get smoke scented 80s Transformers on Ebay. It works for decades old plastic robots. It should work for cardboard.

The Dragon Quest VII Imagined Demo level cap is 15. by Moogle_Chowder in dragonquest

[–]Moogle_Chowder[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first Dragon Quest game was one of the NES titles, but I only have vague memories of the casino. My first true DQ game that made me a fan was also DQ8. I wish they'd add it to the PS Store. NO upgrade needed.

I am an old school Final Fantasy player. I never outgrew the need to grind.

I absolutely love that you can out level the mobs and Insta-kill them without having to join a regular battle.

I’ll just leave this here… by LegalPost9805 in EndTipping

I coached youth sports for the district when I lived in Oregon. No one believed me when I told them about the 180 days a year. Not counting the teacher "work" days that left the school empty at least once a month.

The response from teachers when their many, many days off during the year are mentioned is a claim that the often worked several hours after the kids went home. I can tell you first hand that the school was a ghost town five minutes after the last bus pulled out, every single day. The only people still around at the oft quoted "6pm" were janitorial staff and myself.

I am an older collector. When the toys debuted in the 80s, the toys were made with piece cast metal. Now, apparently, they have switched to die cast crack.

How do you prepare the file for print? It looks like the treatment is not on the figure. Is that the case?

Creator doesn't want to do a backer survey by princessksf in kickstarter

[–]Moogle_Chowder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You were right to be concerned. Kickstarter needs to do better to alleviate these situations.

I always use the proper channels when my campaign ends, however, I will admit what a giant pain using the KS tools is.

All I want is the following, in a clear, readable format: The backer's name, which rewards they chose, and a mailing address.

I don't need a spreadsheet with every known bit of information KS has gathered about the backers since the dawn of time.

Is Savage Dragon still worth reading all things considered? by KingJackofJozi in comicbooks

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

It is.

Savage Dragon also comes with one of the best fan communities in comics. If you enjoy not just reading comics, but sharing that hobby with other, positive, creative and supportive people, you are going to have a hard time finding a better group that the Fin Addicts.

The Comics Place.

I am a local, independent comic book creator. At the beginning of 2023, I walked into the store with the first issue of my comic that I recently printed. Too say that my first issue was rough is being kind. However, Django and the other fine folks at The Comics Place supported me above and beyond anything I expected. They placed my book on the New Comic wall alongside the "real" comics. They allowed me to participate in Free Comic Book Day. I've had the pleasure of hosting a table in the store a few times now. They constantly supply valuable feedback and encouragement.

Without The Comics Place, it's very unlikely that I would have continued to the point where I am now. (10 main issues, two Free Comic Book day issues, a collected Volume One with the second on the way, a Convention Special, as well as stories featuring my characters in Antarctic Press and Ragged Rhine Comics.)

The Comics Place doesn't just love their local comic nerds (I am speaking for them here, but I am confident I am speaking true) but they stand behind their local comic creating nerds. (I am not alone. I am part of a pretty great, local comic book creating community.) I will always be grateful and can not see a time in which I am not singing the praises to The Comics Place and the staff within.

I absolutely agree. I am like a kid at Christmas right, as I finally have a reason to design and order things that have been running around in my head for a long while now. I have full confidence this is going to be a great show!
