  • It is funny how Google makes a browser that works better with Windows than Microsoft does. Has that thought ever stuck anyone as odd?

    I had to reformat my computer and reinstalled a newer IE 9 and it took me hours to try and make it play video. Finally gave up and and figured what the heck so I downloaded Google Chrome and it was perfect not operating issues since,

  • I am still stuck on FireFox, i never use IE anymore, i will get on a workstation at work and if it doesnt have FF i will download and install it. I have downloaded Chrome on my laptop but have yet to use it. i think i tried it once and didnt have my bookmarks and passwords so i havent looked at it since, but i hear that it is a good browser.

    But will never ever go IE again.

  • I have used firefox once and it is ok I think better then IE. I just got to a point where I got tired of yahoo web mail and IE and since I was seriously thinking about switching email I said what the heck and just went to Google for everything.

    Bookmarks are a little tricky at first for Chrome but I will tell you they are nice once you get used to them. I have imported my marks from IE and set some within Google. Everything really is nice I HIGHLY recommend you trying it at some point.

    Been collecting since the mid 80's mostly marvel. took some time off in the 90s early 00s got back into it around 2004 then found this site back in 2006 and have been working on mostly SA books.

    Main titles would be any thing spider-man pre 2000. I need only Issue#3 ASM vol 1 to complete that 1 to 441. and of course AF15. that and i was into Xmen and punisher back then. For DC Batman and Tec and the old SA series like metal men showcase ect.
    But now dont buy new comics too offen as the closest LCS is about 1 hour drive away in another town.

    And as you can see from my signature line Key Marvels.
    and you?

  • ASM 1st and 2nd, I am a crazy variant chasing fool. Just started Superman, Supdergirl, Batman, Detective and Action (regular copies only on those.)

    Collected for a while as a kid, sold them all off due to divorce and restarted last fall. I may have to put a hold on the ASM for a while as I am trying to work through a rough patch but i learned if i do take a break then I will still buy the 1:50 and 1:100 and I am sure the rest will be easy to find if i fall too far behind. Hoping to continue but we will see if some things work themselves out.

    I pick up the DCs now for my boy whom is 2 and I have a kid on the way any day or week so I am hoping to not have to sell off my early ASM's to get extra cash. It just a rough patch but I think you know what I mean.

    I have all ASM to now but 2-10 (1 in poor) and 25 along with the variants I do not have any pricing ones and a few of the cheaper 2nd prints below 300. I have everything else including the 666 variants from that variant chase.

  • Funny you are a ASM guy with Supergirl avatar...LOL i thought about trying to get the #1s of the dc 52 but we shall see. So you have a complete ASM vol 1. NICE. if you are looking to sell off your #3 i would be interested.

    i bought my ASM#1 back in the late 80's my girlfriend at the time talk me into buying it. I was at a con and looking for a Xmen #1 but didnt find one so she talked me into the ASM #1 as we where leaving. We saw it in a booth by the door when we walking in. Was out the door and went back. $400 is cash and trade for a ASM#1 5.5 to 6.0.
    Finally got my Xmen #1 this year CGC 3.5 for $900

  • Well I do not have ASM 2-10 and 25. I did not mean to mislead. I have a 1 but in poor and looking to upgrade at some point. ALL of my other ASM books are in a 4.0 or higher or VG+ish or higher.

    I thought about all DC 52 but I said no I have spent too much on ASM.

    I like Supergirl cause I think she is hot. Spider girl never appealed to me. Batgirl is no too bad. I think the chick in the Avatar is hot plus she is dressed like Supergirl so what is not to love.

    I am planning on trying to buy ASM 1-10 and the 25 I need. I am going to buy 1 or 2 of them a year starting with 25 and 10 and then 9 and 8 etc. When I get down to 2 then buy it then the next year 1.
