Re: Anyone else play MTG?

I played in the mid 90s. Sold all my cards (about 5000 or so) for $800. Now they would be worth between $5000 and $10000. I started playing again about three years ago. Mostly just play casual with friends, and occasional prerelease tournaments. No main decks. My favorite colors used to be blue whit...

Just met David Baron, nice guy...

I asked about the 1:40 (bought one of those) and he said nope. I will be back tomorrow, but didn't bring anything for people to sign. I did have him do a sketch on the blank divinity 2 that is nice. Maybe I will post a picture later.

Re: Bad luck comic con

My wife has a Valiant shirt, but they don't make one in my size. :) I was also thinking about seeing if my daughter would like the Faith comic based on the panel description (she was going to go with me). Oh well. I saw the schedule on the SCCC app. Maybe it isn't finalized - I can hope!! Chris

Bad luck comic con

Of all the bad luck - I scheduled the family to go to Space City Comic Con this year, and the fact Valiant was going to be there was a a major reason. Only I find out today that their panel will be on Friday afternoon, when we can get there until Friday evening. ARGH!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tap...

Re: I might be out on Valiant

I am not disagreeing with that necessarily. I am saying that I miss the sense of history and background that comes with long running, continuously numbered issues. When I started reading X-men in the late 80's, there were almost 200 issues of background story. Yes, not all of it was good, but it gav...

Re: I might be out on Valiant

I still like enough of what they are putting out to still enjoy them, although some of the books are not my cup of tea (but then again, not everything from original Valiant was my cup of tea). I didn't like the huge number of variants in the beginning, and I don't like it now. I can understand havin...

Re: X-O Manowar Comixology Variant For Sale

I just wanted to post that I got the comic from Brian over the weekend. Having been in a situation where I was very delayed (>6 months) in shipping comics books to people in the mid 1990's, I understand where he is coming from. I just wanted to let people know that they arrived.

X-O Manowar Comixology Variant For Sale

No problem at all, and I am glad to hear that is the case and nothing more nefarious. I have met Brian and he was a great guy at SDCC. I was very reluctant to say anything. It was primarily just the lack of contact despite my attempts to reach out to him. Brian - if you are reading this, take your t...

That's great. I don't have as much concern about the time, just the non responses when I tried to get a hold of him.

I agree that it is very uncharacteristic, and was initially writing it off that he hasn't been on the boards in a while. But then when I contacted him via Facebook, he asked for my address and said he would have a tracking number for me three weeks ago, and now he hasn't provided any additional foll...

I contacted Brian on Facebook (not stalking him, I have been his friend for a while now). He said he would send it and give me a tracking number. Three weeks ago. And has not responded to any questions or anything since then. Brian is/was a well trusted person on this forum. If I recall, he actually...
