Never heard of Abbas discount. Was it damaged by the post office or damaged by the seller?

I got my replacement earlier this week for the one that was damaged. The replacement is probably a 9.6, but they included another black and white copy for free, so I'm not complaining. Haha.

Received my Puddin pack. Aspen packed my books to withstand just about anything. Quite pleased. Also picked these up for $5 at my LCS

I am still waiting to hear back or get my replacement books from Most Good Hobby. Both the color and B&W were damaged. There was a quick response to the first email, but nothing to the second one.

I just got my shipping notifications for 2 of my 3 AOD books. The third one was placed much later than the oter toso if they're just going down their order list instead of combining them, then it might be a bit till the third one ships

I have never seen either of those covers before. What store has that Harley?

I'm also still waiting on Most Good Hobbby and AOD orders. I do have the AOD All-Star Batman in hand, but I had ordered it from Gotham Central, not from AOD directly.

These were the only 2 left at my LCS. There's another shop nearby that I can check with if you are interested. They are both regular covers and shouldn't be hard to locate.

I am waiting for my replacement books from Most Good. Hopefully yours do not arrive damaged like mine did.

I just don't get it... Why is Harley Quinn so popular? I spent £260 on BA#12 last week and I regretted it instantly! Anyone wants it for what I paid it's yours


Variants aren't my thing, and I learned the hard way in the 90's to not buy a multitude of comics before I even know if the story is good or it blows.

Has anyone read the issue yet? I haven't seen comments on the story.

Because of her mammary glands and gluteus maximus. If she didnt have those fanboys wouldn't care. If she still looked like she does on the cover of Mad Love, would fanboys be shelling out hundreds of dollars for variant covers? I think not.


I just have to say that this is a very shallow view of Harley's success and not even accurate. There are a TON of female comic book characters that are more physically appealing than Harley, IMO. If hot looks was all it took for a characters success, there would be a lot more comics from the 90's around. No, there is more to Harley then her looks. It IS her character that is so endearing. She is the "bad girl", "daddy's girl" and "insane freak" all rolled up into one. There is a complexity to her that is alluring. She is mysterious, dangerous, and flirty. She is everything your parents warned you to stay away from. It is human nature for us to be a bit rebellious, curious and danger seekers. In my opinion, her character resonates on some basic level with people. Like Marilyn Monroe, men want her and women want to be her. That may all sound like psychobabble, but all great fictional characters are the ones who find a way to resonate with their audience on a human level. She does that.


I won't dispute this since I know very little of the character (Mad Love is all I own with her in it), but if everything you described were the same, yet she looked like Andrea Dworkin, no one would buy her. Probably.
Good looks are where it starts and what gets the guys interested. If the rest of the character details are good; bonus

Exactly.

I have all but three of mine in. Well, technically just need one, and still waiting to hear back for when my replacements will be sent out. The Most Good Hobby is the place I got damaged books from, but they replied back quickly, and said new books would be out soon. I hope the soon, is soon... LOL The other I am waiting on the is color and B&W from AOD. I got the regular color, and the regular B&W from them, but through a different seller.

Finally just got my AOD email. They sure took their sweet time shipping them out. Not sure if I want to buy from them again. Before the pre-order, I sent them an email about combine shipping, but never got a reply.

@Revelations I messaged them through ebay right after I placed my order. I never heard back from them but when I got my shipments they were accompanied with a bunch of paypal emails refunding bits of the shipping.
