Found a solid copy of Star*Fems #2. Love that Gulacy cover so much. I am a big Gulacy fan but if Liefeld drew that twisted butt shot, there would be people with pitchforks gathering in this forum. At least it's anatomically correct

Found a solid copy of Star*Fems #2. Love that Gulacy cover so much. Never seen this title before. Yet another to add to the list. Is this an early Bill Black-related book? Sure looks like it. You are correct sir. Bill Black written/drawn. There's some Jerry Ordway and Pat Broderick stuff inside as well. Only 2 issues. Both worth picking up.

How's Dark Knights of STeel going? I keep looking at it on the shelf and thinking I should be reading it, but then I remember it just didn't do anything for me after the first couple issues. I could be convinced to get the trade though... It's not bad as Tom Taylor is really creating a great story but the schedule of the book makes it so sporadic I forget half the time it's out. Once all 12 issues (and special) are collected I'll probably give it re-read.

Just read it. It was meh. The only thing I liked was the Skeleton Gordon. Skeleton Gordon was fun but not enough to make me stick around This is why I download. Quick read and delete.... lol If I like it, I'll get the trade.

Downloading this week... - Batman 131 - Gotham City Year One 4 - Dark Knights of Steel 9 - Fantastic Four 3 - Spider Man 4 Batman continues to be competently written with solid character moments and fun dialog...but the plot of Bruce once again being "killed" and yet just presumed to be lost is incredibly tired at this point. Not only did Morrison do it ten years ago, but we got a similar plot on Future State a year ago and then again in the just concluded Dark Crisis event. You'd think an editor would have said, "No doubt, that's a great idea Chip...but we just did two similar stories pretty much back to back so how about a different direction?" Just read it. It was meh. The only thing I liked was the Skeleton Gordon.

1. Comic Binding Project Most of you know I've been binding comic runs that are too weird or never got a shot to have a trade. These are books that I like and wanted to keep in my collection (before liquidating in 2020) but wanted to pull out so I can read. Last year I did 20 volumes of minis, short runs (13 on the shelf, and 7 currently at the bindery). I'm close to finishing off what I wan to get done. I have about 9 more books to go. Just need to get scans of some issues and that's it. I might scour my collection again and maybe do a little bit more.
2. CGC Preservation Getting books I bought that mean a lot to me over the 'hot book' on the market. I'm not one of the people that is getting Amazing Spider-Man 300 done, like the other 33,000 done books. These are either small press books, undergrounds, weird stuff that's never been graded or funky stuff that is part of my collection. I have one golden age Disney book at the graders (about to come home) and then I'll send another batch in. I know some people here aren't keen on the slabs; I understand. I have either doubles or the books have been reprinted in some fashion. With the exception of my Dave Stevens books, whose covers I consider works of art and stand alone.
3. Comic Presentation I'd like to work on a project where I can display some of these CGC books. I don't know if I want to build something on my wall or build shelves. Ideally I'd like to order a comic spinner rack but those are crazy expensive! Holy spit.. I never knew. It's an option.
