I doubt you would have found a clown in the shopping mall

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

[bad company]

You can find a mall in a mall

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

FLY FATASS FLY

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

almost posted the clip but decided against redundancy for a change

[reyler]

I've never actually seen a full Kevin Smith movie, but I like the song at the beginning of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Also the deleted scene involving the Dixie cup.

 

Neither of which can be safely posted.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

none of clerks can. though there is someone with the nick snowball.

[reyler]

Also, Jay reenacting Buffalo Bill.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

jay was a lot funnier when he was drinking.

[reyler]

I wonder if Smith ever finished writing that Spider-Man / Black Cat miniseries he started like ten-fifteen years ago. I think issue two came out eight years after issue one?

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

too many words from wiki

 

Smith returned to Marvel for two mini-series: Spider-Man/Black Cat: The Evil That Men Do and Daredevil/Bullseye: The Target, both of which debuted in 2002. The former was six issues long, but after the third issue was published two months after the initially scheduled release date, the final issues were delayed for at least three years, prompting Marvel to release an "in case you missed it" reprinting of the first three issues as one book prior to the remaining issues' release. The delay in part was due to Smith's movie production schedule (in this case, work on Jersey Girl and Clerks II) causing him to shelve completion of the mini-series until the films were completed. In 2007 he was announced as the writer of an ongoing Black Cat series[56] and The Amazing Spider-Man[57][58] in early to mid-2002. However, because of the delays on Evil That Men Do and The Target, the plan was switched so that Smith would start a third Spider-Man title,[59] launched in 2004 by Mark Millar instead. While Spider-Man/Black Cat was ultimately completed in 2005, Daredevil/Bullseye: The Target remains unfinished, with one issue published.

I wasn't that interested. Been a while since I paid any attention to what goes on in comics, other than movie news.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

mine are still in the acid free bags where i left them in 1991, rotting away in the garage.

[reyler]

I used to have mine in bags. Then I realized I didn't care about their resale value and that I could get a lot more into a longbox without them.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

i put them in bags as soon as i brought them home and mostly never read them except the conans and xmen and new mutants and... pardon me here... elfquest... and the occasional doctor strange.

 

i should look and see how many mice have died in them one of these days.

[reyler]

You... never read them? Then what did you buy them for?

 

Also I think they've got most if not all of Elfquest's back catalog online now. I recall that I read through the first issue and it didn't really grab me.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

i bought them cause i meant to read them but they were time consuming so i only read the ones i was interested in.

 

also they would hvae supposedly been worth more untouched.

 

but... this was at a time when everyone was collecting, so they were never going to be worth anything. didn't realize that at the time. i've started giving them to children, but haven't gotten into the longboxes in the garage and fear what i'll find. found a dehydrated dead frog in a comic once. and that was only after 6 months.

 

elfquest was... silly. but i liked it. i have the big black and white ones. don't know if those were first or second prints. they redid them in color i think but i wasn't buying comics by then.... i don't think. it's been a while, maybe i did.

I don't think anybody realized at the time that saturating the market with collectors items makes it so they have no actual value. I think it took Marvel almost going backrupt to make people figure it out.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

we've had more than a boom-bust cycles in the free markets. the putzes buying them might not have known, but someone doing the selling was rehearsing for a future housing bubble.

[reyler]

Something about exploding boobs.
