@esaravo I personally prefer the original because it's different, but I also rarely win. | ||

@xkonk - That’s why I first picked the original one, because I thought not many people would have seen it. Maybe I will switch back again. Too many choices (then there’s the Jimmy Olsen one). I switched it back. Thanks, Alex! |

Didnt post because my odd interpretations are … odd. Ambush Each of them can fairly say “Am bush!” AND they are being ambushed by some creatures in meteorites. ![]() |

Quote:Originally Posted by Scifinator- lol! When I was ten years old, I got my first Overstreet Price Guide and wore it out staring at all those Golden Age book covers that I could only dream about then (and sadly, still now for most of them). Meanwhile, Steve probably had bought and sold a few copies of Action Comics #1 by the time he was 10, and has physically handled and graded nearly every Edgar Church/Mile High, Crippen D, Gaines, Savannah, Northland, etc. pedigree copies. Hell, he has graded all of the pedigrees you could name (except maybe the Promise Collection) and many of the highest graded copies of most known comics! As Garth and/or Wayne would say, I am not worthy to be mentioned in the same sentence as Mr. Borock. |
