News / Re: Case Files on Kindle £1.89
23 May, 2013, 09:11:41 PM
Absolutely with Bob on this; I hate the idea of digital books (I want the feel of paper in my hand, the smell of the ink and binding, reading is a tactile experience for me) but thought I'd give 'The Pit' and 'Origins' a go as it's going to be a while until they appear in the CFs. While not a convert, I am enjoying the accessibility of it (I can dip in and out on breaks at work for example and not risk creasing covers), and you can't really go wrong at £1.89 and will pick up others (at the right price) and buy as 'real' books at a later date...

Could this be one of the 'extra' pages in the re-issue of the 'Slaine the King' collection?!

I have a vague recollection of him saying it was to make the 'central' figure stand out. I suppose it's a pre-3D effect of sorts. (We used to call it the 'cut out and keep' line)!

Ps : Whats the feeling on this Nick Percival piece of Slaine on eBay. ?? ..( No acetate overlay included with this one ).....www.ebay.co.uk/itm/181138947225 and for Sale for £500...
Kinda makes my brothers' pieces in / around the correct 'ballpark' figure...

I'd say it was overpriced ;) especially when you can get this half splash http://www.comicartfans.com/GalleryPiece.asp?Piece=883627&GSub=129495
for €250
