Re: Xo 10 2022

It should be zero surprise for any recent, current, or upcoming Valiant "ongoing" title to last between 8-12 issues. :thumb:

Re: There’s a new Archer & Armstrong series…does anyone care?

Kind of like the Matt Kindt take on XO - “Hey, let’s take away the XO suit for the majority of this run - isn’t that *clever*?!” :roll: facepalm It is called deconstruction. It’s all the rage with hipster types :lol: :P Alan Moore and Frank Miller did it best in the 80s but no one ever accused them...

Re: Some foreign Gold Key comics

Definitely Portuguese language. The (re-)publisher is EBAL, a Brazilian publisher of comics. I don’t know how widely EBAL publications circulated in Portugal but the cover price is denominated in Cruzeiro Novos, a short-lived Brazilian currency from the late 60s. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazi...

New article up on Screen Rant that they teased last week. Again, looking forward to some of these characters returning. Crossing fingers they do them justice. :hope:

ETERNAL WARRIOR: SCORCHED EARTH

Nice to see Gilad and Tama return. The original graphic novel format is new for them which is kind of interesting.
I don't get the need to run it on Kickstarter though.

#2 Here's a rather obvious embossing error but than the seller thinks it's an IVORY, too -- I don't see this either: The logo section appears to be rather white....than cream-ish. :? Anyhow, I guess, the EMBOSSING ERROR is interesting enough for some of the ERROR COLLECTORS around here. https://www...

Re: Acclaim Rai & The Mother God 1-3. Any info?

I don't know, this seems like it has all the markings of a Mark Hoffman level forgery, tbh. It seems like an unbelievably convenient find, desirable to hardcore collectors, but strangely unheard of until now. These were verified by the artist, sold for a few hundred each, and drawn on the same Vali...

Thanks for posting this! I was wondering if there would be an obvious difference in the coupons. It looks like there is... that brown shading is missing from the reproduction. :thumb: You bet!

Here's a corner box comparison. You can tell the original because of the gnarly bindery tear. :insane: facepalm :-P

Re: Harbinger 1 Facsimile Edition - Kowabunga Comics Exclusive

I got mine in today and it looks pretty good. They did a fairly faithful reproduction with enough differences to tell apart from the original. The top corner box is different with a 3.99 price vs the original 1.95 cover price. It feels sort of like the 2008 Hardcover reprinting with coloring amped u...

Congrats on the find! I saw it on eBay and considered it as an investment. Been looking for a non-thrashed copy of that book for years.
I believe it was Ernie Colón who did the artwork for it.

I don't have it saved but I remember the online comic you're talking about. I have this splash page original art that I believe was used for it.
