His signiture on the left hand side next to the UPC box is a dead give away.. ;)

Is the book really in that poor a condition? or is it one of those attempts by the publisher to make it look like an older comic?
His signiture on the left hand side next to the UPC box is a dead give away.. ;)I can't make that out, you must have good eyes. Of course, I could pull the hard copy, but we all know what that entails...

1. Finding it.
2. opening up that tight seal that you have on that bag.
3. and then Reading it and then wanting to read the following issues. IT was a real good run. I do miss Carl Potts as a writer.

faster than a speeding bullet vs. Floats like a butterfly.....
more power than a locomotive vs. Stings like a bee.
Yeah, it's fair....

They are really long range planners there at Marvel. Wait and see how the Clone Saga ties into Civil War and House of M.

Yeah, it's fair....That cover won this contest like three or four weeks ago during the sports theme or the odd pairings theme, I can't remember which. So, if you want to win this week, you may want to pick another, but it is an awesome cover.

I left the contest alone for a while when the winner took more rhan 5 days to post the next contest. Missed a few weeks after that. Oh well.
Here's the Bane of Bat's existence.

Going with Lone Ranger's great golden-age propaganda.
My Uncle could whoop your uncle's ass with one hand while juggling 5 eggs in his other hand riding a unicycle.

2nd Place five way tie with one vote each, Sophisticated Grammar, Homer Jay, Lone Ranger, Mike Smash & Wane.
1st place tie for Ryan Day & Mac Danny.
Ties are only good for fathers day, next vote decides it.
Will it be:
Mac Danny with Cap laying the smack down on Hitler or
Ryan Day with Doop weilding an ominous broken beer bottle against Thor?

Hmmmm... I want to complain, cause I voted for the other guy, but at the same time I don't want to make an enemy of the forefinger.
What shall I do?

I say that we solicit the opinion of another person on the board that didn't vote in the contest.
I retract my second vote. :)
