No never, never even heard of it I don't think.



This it?

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

yeah that's the first episode of the series. So i guess the first one i saw was a documentary that predates the series by a few years ...

 

[CiG]

Halfway through and man the owner is kind of a douche lmao. Love the dorky traditionalist Phil guy though, fuck the future, fuck the kids lol.

 

[CiG]

Okay it got to the part where he hangs up customer art in his store to make the kids feel good, maybe he's not such a douche.

Edit: Hell yeah I love Kelley Jones' art.

haha yeah i love his Batman, one of my favorites actually. But Glenn and a few the guys shit on him from what i remember.

edit: yeah sometimes the owner can be a big time douche but he seems like an overall okay guy

 

[CiG]

He's definitely a character which is cool, better than being some phony fuck that has no opinions of his own. That was a really cool little mini-documentary, I'll definitely watch some of the follow-up videos and see what's up. Wish I had a passionate local indie shop like that.

I LOVED the story about the guy trying to haggle with him over a Spidey book he was asking $100 for and after the customer low-balled him a bunch of times he just rips the book up in front of the guy and tells him to beat it lmfao.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Yeah, he's definitely a character ... and so are are a few of the regulars that pop up in in there. Binged the shit out the series. I think im at episode 30 or something.

 

[CiG]

Oh damn, is the channel current or dead?

i just checked and there's a "teaser" for the next episode lol so yeah its currently ongoing.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Picked up a bunch if stuff in the past few weeks. Here are some of my favorite cover pieces...

Spoiler

@RadicalThrasher @CiG a Karate Kid comic book! lol

the guy who's writing the new Mask was at the shop so i got a few of his books signed ...

and one of the writers for the new Red Goblin book walked into my local shop today while i was there and signed all the copies of his book which also just came out today. Was already going to pick up an issue but grabbed an extra variant since he seemed like a pretty cool dude ...

 

[CiG]

[TechnicalBarbarity]

variant cover for the new Venom is pretty badass...

 

[Blurry_Dreams]

Doctor Doom comic?? what the fuck??



also
@TechnicalBarbarity
Venom symbiote attached to a female was an action figure forever ago
(back when Marvel first bought toybiz and they weirdly decided to make action figures of all the obscure one-appearance characters)
i remember this cuz i bought one, she was blonde though
and IIRC this was the venom symbiote only attached to the female for one-single issue before returning to being attached to eddie brock
(and still somehow got made into an action figure that i bought)
all of this this was way-the-fuck before the venom symbiote attached itself to Flash Thompson

EDIT
took the time to find a picture
this is the action figure my grandmother bought for me all the way back when it was a brand-new action figure

that cover actually has nothing to do with the story, it's just one of the "Mary Jane" variants they did for all of their covers last month.

that action figure was still pretty creepy
can't believe my grandmother bought that for me
she was pretty blind without her glasses
i think she bought it without putting on her glasses, lol
