Wouldn't personalizing the commission be a pretty easy way to get around that? I assumed most commissions were personalized anyways.

Holy crap, the ending of Deadpool 18
That would fix it but I don't think that is how it is.

So I've decided to read some Marvel.
Black Widow, Punisher and Ms. Marvel to be exact. Only a few issues into each, but they seem awesome.
And I read the first issue of Moon Knight. Great stuff.
I wish I stayed more up to date.

Wat. That seems a bit hardcore for a Deadpool book.

the fourth world vol 1 is now complete. I think I need a break until tomorrow. My brain is fried from so much Kirby-ness. Still really liking it. The only issue I haven't liked was the jimmy Olson issue with the bizarre celebrity cameo? Uh..yea I want that to be over soon.
You might as well stop after this arc and before Deadpool gets married. It's just zzzzZZZZzzz after The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
I'll have to ask the crew at Paperfilms to hook me up. I really want a nice sketch of U-Go and Doop
I can't disagree with this. The art is really bad now.
Those are some great choices. Black Widow and Punisher starts to become a bit monotonous after the first few issues but it's starting to pick up again with their latest releases last week. And Ms. Marvel's a great pick up; it's a fun read so far.

Seriously? I hope Duggan and Posehn didn't blow their dramatic load all over this one arc. I mean, The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly is not just a great Deadpool story, it's a fantastic story in general. And the art is so good. Shalvey and Bellaire killed it here like in Moon Knight.
At least the story ended with a fairly (well, sorta) heartwarming moment where
Captain America and Wolverine extend friendship to Deadpool. I liked that.
I'm probably gonna catch up with the rest of Deadpool, but I really hope that Posehn and Duggan can reach the heights that they hit with Good, Bad, Ugly.
Punisher is really awesome. And keep up with Moon Knight, it's fantastic (but Ellis and Shalvey only do up to Issue 6). Also, you should check out Hawkeye, Deadpool, and Daredevil, all fantastic titles.

Check out She-Hulk too. It'll go along nicely with Ms. Marvel. Two great, fun, well drawn books.

I've read up until 12 or 13 in Hawkeye.
I'm going to start She-Hulk soon. With Daredevil am I good to start with the relaunched first issue or go to the beginning of Waid's run?
I definitely want to see all 6 of Ellis' issues. Is Brian Wood being himself on that book, or keeping it going?

You should start at the beginning of Waid's run cause 1) It's fantastic, and 2) the relaunch continues on from where the previous series ended. It's all pretty much uninterrupted, they just changed the numbering to give the series a boost and cause they changed up some of the status quo
as Daredevil will now live in San Francisco, and the previous Waid run explains why.
As for Moon Knight, I've no clue what Wood is doing. I didn't like his first issue.
Definitely start with Waid's run.

I'll start Waid's run soon. Subbed to Unlimited, so it's all on there.
Oh yeah, my friend ended up springing for a sketch from the JL8 guy at the con. Cost him $50 for a bust style sketch (apparently full body would've been more money).
He ended up going with a plain Batman, though somehow when he was ordering it I heard him say Venom. Which triggered the conversation: if you're commissioning something from someone at a con, would you want something unique or something that the artist is iconic for? Like, there's a ton of different pictures of that straightforward Batman from the JL8 out there, but something a little different (not necessarily Venom, that's just what I misheard) could provide a more unique souvenir. But my friend argued that it's better to go with what the artist knows to guarantee quality. I don't know, I'm not the type to commission anyway, just curious what people thought.

I love Quinones work
With Yale I would have gone with someone who hasn't been in JL8 but in that style. I'd likely go with Ivy or Harley. His harley is great. Just wish she was in the series. Definitely wouldn't have chosen Batman for the reasons listed.
How is this not one of the cutest things ever
Yes we all know Yale is a scumbag before somone points out the obvious

I was thinking Zatanna or Poison Ivy. Dat animated series hairstyle.
His Ivy is wonderful. Well so is Zatanna. Bloodspell is a delight to look at.
He also drew Spider-Gwen
I wouldn't bother but if you want to read the issues before Dracula's Gauntlet, that's fine. Just don't read Dracula's Gauntlet.

Go for Zatanna!
I think it's more fun to let the artist pick what they want to draw. It's bound to be unique and will be something they're super into.
I can't believe JL8 dude charges $50 for a bust.

The heck is Dracula's Gauntlet?

So this is just a general comic collecting question since I'm trying to sort my comics in order...
What kind of bags and boards does everyone recommend? Furthermore, I don't really like taping my bags -- is there a better way than taping? I know you can put the flap inside of the bag, but that seems to create the issue of the comic sliding around. Any suggestions?

How long ago did they start these digital code things?
My God.
I must have a million and didn't even realize it.

At the beginning of Marvel NOW. They expire after one year.
That's essentially what I do. It works out great!
Oh my goodness. I wonder if Mignola does commissions...
I'd be really tempted to get an Allred or Burnham commission too. Or Stokely.

Are you talking about Johns run? I had no idea people didn't like it, they must be awful.

I had no idea.
Well I'd be happy to take any you don't want.
I can reimburse you in the form of mini reviews.
Yeeeeeeeeeah that might be a little out of my price range.
I'd imagine Mignola would charge about the same if he does commissions.
Edit: From Mignola's website:
Probably for the best. Or else my hard-earned savings could be in jeopardy.
Better yet, instead of a commission, I can (if I hypothetically go to LBCC) load up on Mignola prints. Now that sounds like a fantastic idea.

Yup. GH was the one who turned me onto this story in particular and I never got around to talking about it before. It's one of my favorite Superman stories.
