[ajaxfan]

^absolutely sure

[revi]

@ajaxfan: Hope I could be at the convention, bro.. Its always amazing to look at somebody else's collection.. And I highly anticipate looking at your collection.. Madami ka ba graded comicbooks? How about signed Dynamic Forces-certified comics? That would be a treat for the eyes!!! How about old comics (golden, silver and bronze age)? 80's comicbooks are also good to look at..

 

The problem is that my finances are limited due to a lot of shopping activities for my hobbies these past few weeks.. hehe.. But sana makapunta kahit hindi ako gaano bibili.. At sana makapag-control kahit papaano.. haha..

 

@all:

 

Here are my pulls for this week:

 

Amazing Spiderman #571

Dark Tower: Treachery #1

Secret Invasion #6

Stand: Capt. Trips #1

Secret Invasion: Inhumans #2

Dead She Said #3 - Final Issue

Straw Men #2

Welcome to Hoxford #2

Simon Dark #12

 

Contemplating on Steve Niles' Epilogue #1.. I am a big fan of Niles.. But I feel na medyo ginagasgas na siya ng mga comicbook companies.. Still, I might get this series from IDW.. Kungsabagay tapos na ang Titans comicbook allocation ko, tapos na kasi first storyline sa #4! Yipee! haha..

[revi]

@khumpleetist: Suggestion lang, bro.. Ituloy mo na ang GL bro.. Isang issue na lang at tapos na ang Secret Origin ni Sinestro.. Sayang naman kung maputol pa sa koleksyon mo di ba? Just my two cents worth..

Thanks for the input bro, I've made up my mind on this and I'll continue GL. I'll drop it soon but I'll keep GLC.

 

 

 

 

These are my reservations for this week:

 

BIG HERO 6 #1 (Just this issue only, 2 new characters making their debut here I think)

BOOSTER GOLD #12

GREEN LANTERN CORPS #28

SECRET INVASION #6

NEW EXILES #11

[khumpleetist]

:rolleyes:

About FC: ang daming tie-ins. Buti naman na di ako masyado na DC fan.

 

You know what, I think eto na ang panahon na para magtipid and we should think wisely on what titles should we get. So, I'm gonna give you my list of titles and please criticize me in anyway on why I shouldn't get this title, ok?

 

I'll definitely start collecting Marvel Mighty Muggs toys; buy the Mike Minola'a penciled Hellboy one-shot; not collect the War of the Kings, Superman: New Krypton. I'll be kinda sensitive in choosing some one-shots.

 

Definitely will keep:

-Thor

-Captain America

-Amazing Spider-man

-Invincible Iron Man

-Kick-ass

-Mighty Avengers

-Deadpool

-The Walking Dead

 

Minis/events:

-Sub-Mariner:The Depths

-Batman Cacophony (K.Smith upcoming)

-Straw Men (What happened to this title?)

-BPRD Warning

-Star Wars: Vector

-Lost Boys: Reign of the Frogs

-Supernatural: Rising Son

-Secret Invasion

-SI: Thor

-Si: Inhumans

-Marvel 1985

-Hellboy the Crooked Man

 

Not Sure/for story arcs:

-Action Comics (Braniac)

-Batman (RIP, .... cowl and Gaiman arc)

-Superman (I'll stop this one really)

-Hulk (hanggang next issue na lang)

 

 

Here's my feedback on what you're getting:

 

 

Thor - I'm not reading this but it's good that Thor's having a low profile but I guess he'll be a breakout character after SI

 

Captain America - Not reading this too but definitely a winner. KEEP IT.

 

Amazing Spider-Man - Well, you might skip a month or two since the writers are rotating but NWTD is fine.

 

Invincible Iron Man - I predicted this'll be a hit but my pocket tells me another thing. KEEP IT and keep me posted w/the Triumph Division.

 

Kick-Ass - KICK-ASS!!!

 

Might Avengers - As the cousin of Marvel's flagship title I guess you can't be wrong here.

 

Deadpool - Give it a shot, I wish Fabian Nicieza is the one writing this.

 

The Walking Dead - I guess there's something here since it just surpassed it's 50th issue.

 

 

 

I'm out of time I'll give my feedback w/the other titles tomorrow and I'll post my list this week too for some feedback.

revi: hope you could go the collecticon as well...

 

oh yeah i think this would be my 1st time to be in this thread...let me introduce myself

 

i am huge spider-man, a comic reader since 2002 and have indulge in almost every spider-man comic as much as I can and some other marvel titles(with the help of dcp)

 

2007 was the year I turned into toy/statue collection(but still read comics)....what made me love toys at this time was I was able to apperciate almost every single character in spideys world and seeing them in 3D...is a sight to enjoy.

 

regarding my collection...i am more of a comic reader than a collector. I am not into graded comics...just want a copy or in trade/HC.

 

here are some of my spidey tpb/hc....other comics are in boxes

always love comic discussion like you guys....i say this because I was suprised to know that many collectors dont know what they are collecting or dont anything what happened to the character which is sad...stories are better than looking at toys.

@ajaxfan: Nice collection you have there.. Just like you, I also collect figures but mostly they are Marvel Hero Clix figures.. Nakalagay din sa istante.. haha.. Nakalagay sa friendster pics ko ito but I will post it here.. BTW, medyo nag-lie-low na ako sa Hero Clix dahil sobrang dami na ang releases and my istante can't fit 'em any more..

 

Ang ganda nung Spiderman #1 na statue, bro.. Your collection is definitely a looker..

 

I am also a Spidey-fan, bro.. But I have been very disappointed coz I felt Marvel cheated its readers when "everything just fell into place" during the Clone saga.. Gumulo ang istorya at nabelawala ang mga lumang istorya like the Death of Gwen Stacy, etc.. Marvel sure had lots of ideas but I definitely feel that they have no great ideas when it comes to Spiderman.. One More Day is another storyline I disliked.. But because I love Spiderman, I can't just stop everything.. Right now, ironically, I am getting New Ways to Die.. Just to give its hype my utmost attention.. haha..

 

Its always fun to look at other people's collections.. Thanks for sharing..

 

As promised, here are some pictures of my toys-istante-collection..

[ajaxfan]

revi: nice heroclix...love them

 

i will start collecting them soon ...i will finished with all the others first like minimates and some 12inches etc.

 

maybe you can help me

 

 

regarding spider-man....i miss jms.

 

there have been some BND stories that i like....i always believe that the stories werent erased just forgetten....it has always been said in the creators interviews.

 

an example of which is in New WAys to Die wherein Peter was suprised Norman and Venom didnt remember his identity.

 

 

there are 2 recent steve wacker interviews that will shed light on the future of spider-man....it seems in towards #600 peter and mj might remember their past.

wow ! you guys got some nice collection of sorts out there :thumbsupsmiley:

 

anybody collecting DC brand toys? :goatee:

[judewafu]

uh guys read this article sa newsarama about sa "aftermath" ng SI they are calling the storyline Dark Reign

here's the article http://www.newsarama.com/comics/080909-mar...ond-summit.html

Edited September 10, 2008 by judewafu

[judewafu]

wow nice collection!!haha sana ako i have plans to expand my collection ,dagdagan ko sana ng mga action figures and stuff hahaha pero wala pa pera pag graduate na lang ^^

[ajaxfan]

mazinger: there are many but you can find them in the toyforums...i dont know anyone here since i am a newbie

 

judewafu: take your time patience lang...kahit comics muna ok lang yan. it took me 5 years before i started merchandise collecting from comic reading...mas maganda transition.

[ajaxfan]

i am also excited with dark reign and the next cosmic event...

 

i love events...they make the universe cohesive

 

for several years pre-disassembled...na spidey was within his universe, x-men within its own continuity and avengers/f4 fighting their own archrivals.

 

it is as if they are not within one universe...now MU is cohesive and events within each other are interelated with HOM, CW, Annihilation, Conquest, WWH and SI.

@norbyela

 

waw san mo nabili ung SDCC Iron Man? hahaha ang gusto ka ung Custom!! ung Deadpool! at ung Ultimate Captain America!

[judewafu]

guys ngaung week ba ang ALL Star Batman and Robin 10? amp o delayed na naman?

[revi]

guys ngaung week ba ang ALL Star Batman and Robin 10? amp o delayed na naman?

 

I just got my copy of All Star Bats #10 today, bro.. And I got surprised kasi akala ko next week pa ang release nito.. :thumbsupsmiley: Critics have been very unforgiving with their reviews on this series.. I find it quite okay.. Yun nga lang sobrang delayed ang releases ng mga issues..

[mazinger]

if any of you guys got hold of the ALL STAR BATMAN & ROBIN # 10 , be sure to keep it or get a few more coz DC just inform all the retailers to destroy them. Reason : may mga curse words bet the dialogue na bawal. so magiging HOT item ito. PRICE WILL INCREASE !!!

[revi]

Kuya ikaw ba un ung nakita ko sa CO yesterday? around 130-200PM? I think you bought some comics and some HCs. Am i right?

 

Hindi ako yun, bro.. I got my comics at Filbars Marikina.. Not in CO.. Will be going to CO this Saturday, though..

Hmmm... Thanks for the post, bro.. Nakita ko nga yung mga words.. "cunt, s@%t, f#&k.." hahahaha...

[tk421]

I just love this set of dialogues:

 

 

Haha.

[revi]

@mazinger: Thank you for the head's up on All Star Bats #10.. Coz after I read the link that you posted, I quickly texted Filbars Riverbanks and had another copy reserved (I got one copy yesterday kasi).. And yknow what, I even had Filbars' one and only variant copy reserved as well.. Luckily, that copy was in their Riverbanks branch.. Got the variant today.. And we all know that Filbars sell their variant cheap, right? haha.. So, again thanks, bro!!! :thumbsupsmiley:

 

@all: You should get copies of this even though you are not reading All Star Batman.. Why? Well, in ebay, these are selling like hot pancakes.. The variant alone is selling at around $60-70.. I even saw a combined Variant and common copy that sold for around $150.. Misprints and recalls make prices of comics or any other collectible go upscale.. I think only Filbars might have copies of this comicbook here in the PI.. Kung hype man lang ito, ano ba naman ang masama na sugalan niyo ang isang comicbook na worth Php150, diba? Just some thoughts, mga bros..

 

Here is the picture of my copies of the variant and the common copy of All Star Bats #10 (also called the potmouth edition and a true variant).. And I also inserted a picture of one inside page for you to see what the fuss is all about.. haha..
