"As of today (September 17) 7 out of the 9 (Teen Titans Go and DC Super Hero Girls were missing) have appeared at my local Walmart.
If there was supposed to be a new display box for the roll out too, it's not here. The local vendor just threw…"
"Cap:
For what it's worth, I hang on to my original issues whenever possible.
Collections of Silver and Bronze Age material don't include things like house ads, letter columns, or reprints; especially in regards to the 48, 52, 80, and 100…"
"Not surprised about no Scooby-Doo Giant, since that was previously listed as a 50th anniversary special.
The World's Finest Giant DOES surprise me.
Then again, even if it's just on a temporary basis, DC does like to revive certain titles…"
"OMG!
I didn't even realize I had such a typo until just now. Sorry folks."
"To Richard Willis, et al.
Public libraries are everywhere.
Try a Google search for your specific area.
By the way: your emoji didn't appear well, or was that the point?"
"Thanks Rob.
What I should have mentioned in my last post and forgot to is that I have nothing against print material.
In fact, I have a physical copy of both Action 1000 (1930s cover) and Detective 1000 (1970s cover).
It's just that between…"
"Lately I've been picking up a bunch of comics via Amazon's Kindle when they go on sale for 99 cents each instead of cover price. Among the titles I've bought have been Bendis' runs on Superman (to issue 12), Action (to 1012, even…"
"Apparently Harley's getting around more nowadays and I like the new, more streamlined trade dress for the covers, because I always thought the previous one was too "busy".
But nothing has appeared at my local Walmart yet."
"Yeah Cap, those were the days.
The Kamandi/Tommy point in History took only one panel. A pivotal change of the moment, but nothing more than a footnote in the overall story."
"For Wonder Woman, I would definitely prefer to see another heroine shine.
For any Titans title, another teenage character is obvious.
But the DC universe has such a vast array of (underused) characters that I cannot think of better or more specific…"
"Cap: The story you're trying to remember was The History of the DC Universe that followed the original Crisis On Infinite Earths. With now only one plane of existence (at the time), the baby was still found in Command D, but instead of becoming…"
"If the mystery woman is a red head, my first thought would have been Barbara Gordon.
In any event, with no word balloons in those sample pages, I prefer to think of Rose as just speculation at this point in time."
"Okay, from what I can make out between the two images, the hair is questionable at best.
The coloring plate(s) might have slipped, or else there was a bright light source to the character's left, but either way he is wearing gloves, so you…"
"First I'm hearing about this new cast change. On one hand, it's sad to see favorites go, but the writing has managed to work around this most of the time, so far.
From what I have heard...
The CW/Arrow-verse version of the Crisis on…"
"I'm sure the practice of window shopping applies to comic books too.
We go through the store(s) and every once in a while a cover catches our eye, even though we have no interest in the title/issue it's attached to.
While I gave up on the…"

Thanks Star.
Still trying to get the hang of this new forum. But it's great to have somewhere to else to talk, even if F+W ever manages to get their act together with CBGXtra.
