That's awesome! Any idea how much it cost?

Stan Sakai is one of the nicest comic guys I've ever met. Anytime I bring him something to sign, he sketches in it.

In "Deadpool Vs Thanos," by writer Tim Seeley and artist Elmo Bondoc, the unlikely duo team to rescue their missing ex-girlfriend Death, and restore balance to the universe.

I know my nerd is showing, but anytime I see Thanos used in anything less than a super serious way, I get a little miffed.

Cost? I am not really sure price range. In this case it was most likely free since it was given by Stan's daughter.
I have known Stan thru going to Cons like Comic Con for close to 30 years. My son was going to U C Riverside and it turns out his room mate was going out with Stan's Daughter and became very close friends with her and through her he got to spend a lot of time with Sakai household.

That's awesome. I buy something from him every year at WonderCon, but I don't think it's gotten to the point where he recognizes me or would be willing to give me birthday cards as a gift yet. :)

Wow, Fables is ending. I have to look and see what the last tpb I read was and catch up.

I'm happy to say that, 20+ trades in, it's still a quality book. It definitely hit its peak with the finale of Homelands/Gepetto storyline, but there wasn't much of a drop-off afterwards. Sad to see it go.

Yeah, I think that is about where I left off. Gonna have to check the shelf and order up. I don't even know why I stopped, it really was a solid read. I think i just got fed up with comics a while back. I have the first 2 trades of Locke & Key, V for Vendetta in hand and ready to read. A couple Transmetropolitans, 100 bullets too. I just sorta stopped reading. Is the Goon actually done? I need to get caught up on that fine series too.

Not yet, but I think they announced that the end is coming for it. I'm 2-3 trades behind on that one, too.
