No,never really was a price variant collector.Though I guess I wouldn't mind an Iron Fist #14 .35 cent variant.

No,never really was a price variant collector.Though I guess I wouldn't mind an Iron Fist #14 .35 cent variant. Yeah, I wouldn't mind one, either.  Speaking of price variants, I've run across something strange in the database. To start, let me begin by saying that there have been long-time, old-school dealers who swear they remember seeing 25-cent Marvel price variants when the cover price was still 20 cents for Marvel books. Nobody has ever been able to confirm this. But check this out:  If you missed it, here's the normal version:  I'd REALLY like to know who submitted this and what the verification process was. If this is for real, this could be the fabled missing variant that a lot of people are looking for.

Another one found in Photobucket this isn't a comic (I actually have this comic) but my ex asked me what my favorite comic cover was. When I told her she got me this birthday cake.

That cake boggles my mind. Is that some sort of photo/picture on top of the cake or what?

Cake stores print them up with edible ink, the entire cake was edible. My ex was into all those cake shows (ace of cakes etc..) so she knew about that sort of stuff. While I don't know the exact science of how they do it, if you go to a cake store with an image and say you want it on a cake it'll look as realistic as the image.

Finish off my Geoff Johns JSA run which I'm so incredibly close too, but I gotta stop spending because Christmas is coming up. I also want to finish off my John Byrne & Dan Jurgens runs of the Post-Crisis Superman books. Which I'm also pretty close to. After that I'm going back to a loooonnnggg time ago focus and start buying up more 80s and 90s Spider-Man & Venom comics. ***CHECK OUT MY COMIC TRADING LIST, CLICK HERE******TRADE VIDEO GAMES WITH ME, CLICK HERE******TRADE COMIC CARDS WITH ME, CLICK HERE***Make sure that you read and understand the forum rules here
