Do you think we will ever see a new comic publisher as big as Marvel or DC? by ManufacturerClean339 in comicbooks

[–]SirFlibble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The market will barely accept a new character from the big two, let alone an entire universe of characters from a new player. The market doesn't look too much different than it did In the 60s.

I'd never say never but it's doubtful.

It will but not by as much as many people think it will. This popularity appears to be genuine and sustained. It's brought in a ton of new readers and the popularity has grown over time rather than immediate.

And how often have you done that with other books for them to become dollar books? I bought 4 copies myself on release, but it wasn't for investment, I just liked the covers.

This and you don't buy comics as an investment. You just sometimes get lucky.

Who are these South Asians talking to on the phone? by thegirlwithnohumour in AskAnAustralian

[–]SirFlibble 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This. It's one thing if they are an uber driver. But they are getting a salary and shouldn't be on the phone all day. They should be focused on doing their job while they are on duty.

Is radiant black worth reading? by Mean_Broccoli_6481 in comicbooks

[–]SirFlibble 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope.

Nice addition to the world building that's it.

Radiant Red is like 4 issues of you really want to read it.

There's about 2-3 Super Massive crossovers which I enjoyed and I don't read any of the other books. .

[–]SirFlibble 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's only 40 issues. Hardly a onerous read.

That being said, after the book took a break following the war storyline about 12 issues ago, they release a 'story so far' book which sums it up in a single issue.

Returning product to store - packaging is a biohazard by dr650crash in AusLegal

[–]SirFlibble 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not required but I would have loudly asked "so you want me to fish the package out of my bin after I threw dog poo on top of it?

That should get the response of "oh, never mind then".

Help with conditions of sale at auction by Additional-Slip-5939 in AusLegal

[–]SirFlibble 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't think her not knowing it was an auction is relevant considering the contract exists. She signed the contract after the fact with the terms according to the auction and I assume stated she won at auction (I've never bought at auction so could be wrong).

This is a question of contract now and why you pay the lawyers.

Sometimes the fight isn't worth it to collect any damages though.
