Hopefully when he does get them he will have one for me.

Thought the same thing. Doesn't look like they'll fit in Golden Age either.
echo Comic Guru Location: PA Posts: 585 My Collection	Posted: February 7, 2013 1:59:36 pm no i don't think they will. too tall, I have another comic i got maybe 15 years ago that was like this. it was written by frank miller and all art by simon bisley. can't think of what it was called but it's forever just sat on it's side in a box unprotected since.

You mean this - http://comicbookrealm.com/series/6435/86339/the-big-guy-and-rusty-the-boy-robot-issue-1/1 Yeah I have them as well, not sure if I found bags big enough or not...haven't looked at them in years.

oni424 Teacher Posts: 417 My Collection	Posted: February 7, 2013 8:13:44 pm Fits nicely in a golden age bag and board. Rusty was not olden age format Http://www.comicsheatingup.net www.facebook.com/comicsheatingup
hopeforheroes Collector in Training Location: England Posts: 27 My Collection	Posted: February 7, 2013 8:21:30 pm Regarding size, I recently found an interview as to possibly why they decided to go this route... How early in the process did the idea come along to publish these issues in the Golden Age format? Did that change how any of you tackled your portion of the story? Rossmo: The format didn't change my approach much -- it just gave me more room to move, have bigger panels, etc. Manning: Honestly, as a rule, I'm not a big fan of oversized books. In this case, however, I'm really excited Riley's art is going to be displayed in a big and glorious fashion. His art is the kind that all but begs for this kind of format.

echo Comic Guru Location: PA Posts: 585 My Collection	Posted: February 7, 2013 8:22:15 pm No not that. I pulled it out, it's called Bad Boy by oni press. I loved the big guy and rusty cartoon sometime ago
Canuck I have no life moderator Location: Alberta, Canada Posts: 10685 My Collection	Posted: February 8, 2013 8:41:19 am I have Bad Boy, but I don't remember it being over-sized...hmmm, must be getting old. "Disliking everything is not the same thing as having an opinion"
echo Comic Guru Location: PA Posts: 585 My Collection	Posted: February 8, 2013 8:59:15 am it was rereleased by another company for the 10th anniversary, that may have been normal size.
oni424 Teacher Posts: 417 My Collection	Posted: February 8, 2013 9:48:05 pm Bad boy was a Simon Bizley book with frank Miller. It was re released as a hard cover by dynamite. Thats the format I have it in. The original was oversized but not golden aged format Http://www.comicsheatingup.net www.facebook.com/comicsheatingup
echo Comic Guru Location: PA Posts: 585 My Collection	Posted: February 8, 2013 10:28:13 pm I have the original, it's funny the cover price is $4.99, it's funny because when it came out I remember thinking that costs a lot and wasn't sure if I should get it because of the price. Now just 2 days ago I bought a comic that had a $7.99 cover price. sad, sad
