OK, so 130 issues of Alpha Flight for 20 bucks was not the great deal I assumed it to be

107 issues of anything for $20 sounds like a hell of a deal. :eyepop:

MU doesn't have it all so I'm jelly.

There was a short lived Alpha Flight series in the late-2000s (maybe early 2010s?) which is kind of topical now because the bad guy is basically using the Purple Girl to brainwash Canada into a super-conservative fascist state, including turning Northstar's husband against them (in a VERY unsubtle anti-gay conversion allegory), and trying to make Aurora's 'good girl' personality betray the team for being immoral heathens.

It also gave us Centennial and the second Major Mapleleaf both are amazing characters/

I own Lobo Paramilitary Christmas special and I still love it. I used to own Lobocop as well but I think I lost that one a long time ago.
I would probably pick up any Lobo trade DC would release but clearly they don't want my money.

Literally DCs business plan when it comes to older issue accessibility.

So marvel unlimited had more Adam warlock comics dumped this week. He has gotten a lot put up over the last month. Was he ever cast in GotG2?

Is there a definitive year in which comics got rid of thought bubbles in favour of captions? One thing I love about reading old comics is the thought bubbles that always seemed more personal than a caption which could either be used for first person or third person narration.

Thought bubbles need to come back.

I highly recommend Kong: Skull Island. It is a very entertaining monster movie and is what A new King Kong needed to be.

The after credits scene is a massive nerd boner inducer too.

One of my local comic shops has a huge box of Legion flight rings because nobody wants a Legion flight ring.

I do.

Mr Hootington, pubic works project, bobkatt013, Lightning Lord, do you still want Legion Flight Rings?

Ugh, I don't have PMs so I must divulge PERSONAL INFORMATION. I knew this was a bad plan.

I'm fine. Thanks any how. :)

Not ashamed in the least bit to admit I bought the Time-Life DVD Collection the first day it released even though it was super expensive. It was a good decision.

I bought it 2 years ago. It sits in a place of proud display on a bookshelf.

Did that version still have the super nice steel cases? I heard after the initial run they replaced it with plastic cases.

Mine is a hard paper/cardboard type box in the shape of the firehouse.

or are you talking about the inner cases? mine are plastic, but are nicer plastic cases. not the cheaper plastic.
