Thanks! Also grabbed one. Have most of Silkās covers and this will be a nice addition. Appreciated.
grabbed two, thanks Alana
Snagged 2ā¦good looking out! Appreciate it!!
The print run on this has to be at least 3000. I did not think Marvel has special rules for 2nd prints.
Why are they using shady wording to pump this drek? āLimited toā¦ copiesā, smh.
Why are you promoting that lie, Alana? You know whatās what. And what is, is that book is not a 1500 print run. You know this. Come on, maāam.
They do have special rules for later print store exclusives most are 1000 print run some of the ones that have a 1:25 later printing variant are 1500. Marvel doesnt make stores order a bunch of later prints because they donāt sell well up till this later printing craze started. Kevin at Frankies has never done me wrong or had a reason to lie to me about any of his exclusive print runs Iāve been a customer for closing in on a decade. Heās also sponsored numerous give aways over the years here at Comicsheatingup and donates $500 from every store variant he sells like 3 variants a week to an agreed upon charity. The guy just opened a brick and mortar store and still donates $1500 a week to charity and you want to say he lies about his print runs?
Ahhh, thatās nice that Disney is looking out for the little guy. I do not believe that statement to be true.
It makes zero sense. Why would he choose to use the words ālimited toā¦ā rather than using the words āprint runā.
And that sentence is riff with fallacies. Everything you said is moot too the point I was making. Him giving money to CHU or charity or whatever is absolutely moot in this convo.
Frankieās is using the same sales tactics with misleading verbage, the same verbage you used to rail against.
Frankieās knows this verbage is controversial, yet they choose to use it instead of using every collectors wet dream, āprint runā. I donāt think so. Not for one second. And if youāve been told otherwise by the same guy who is taking your money, then, well, idk, but itās not good.
Iām fairly certain Frankieās opened up about 5 years ago. Kevin and I had exchanged numbers back then when he first opened up.
Idk, man. Lately, you seem to be going out of your way to promote a lot of these store books. Itās all anyone talks about here on CHU now, it seems, and your leading the ring. Idk. Other groups are banning posts about store books to avoid the shite, and itās we talk about on CHU. CHU seems to really be losing its uniqueness and family atmosphere. More and more like those lesser sites as it moves towards pushing store books all day.
I know you make money off of some, but still, you can do that with literally anything. Shit or gold included. Rant over.

Thanks Alana, I picked up 2.
I stopped in at Frankies grand opening. It was very crowded, all for Crane signing.
Sounds like a good place for COVID to spreadā¦

Please provide a reference so I can fact check,
Were people wearing masks and maintaining 6 feet social distance?
FYI that statement is false. He has never given me money as a paid advertiser or for any other reason. He has sponsored giveaways where he directly mailed out the books to the winners but we do not get financial compensation in any way.

Again, āweā do not talk about store variants or promote them on the main site. The forum is open for people to talk about any comics they want. We do not ban any topic unless it is political or gets out of hand with name calling.
Which is actually stated in the rules and guidelines. Sure we might let some slip if theyāre just poking fun in good natureā¦ but yes, this is a public forum (well, mostly public, gain some trust to some private categories to limit the audience) but itās still public in the sense that people have the freedom to talk about comics in any fashion or form they desire.
