Thanks Cobblepot, my fellow Dutchman! ;)

I can't wait for The HUSH figures I've ordered at HENK, the 2 figures are The Joker and Batman btw.:D

Those DKR figures rule man.
Nice collection.

Did Tim Sale draw those comics???

Cobblepot

10-04-2004, 03:32 PM

Yes he did!

carmine, you got all that stuff this year? awesome:batman:

michael jordan

10-04-2004, 05:36 PM

Your Batman DVD cover is cool, but some of your comics are in some foreign language, and I am not a fan. But everything looks cool.

batsone

10-04-2004, 09:35 PM

Your Batman DVD cover is cool, but some of your comics are in some foreign language, and I am not a fan. But everything looks cool.not a fan of what? diffrent languages?

michael jordan

10-04-2004, 10:40 PM

not a fan of what? diffrent languages?
lol, i was kidding.

Carmine Falcone

10-05-2004, 01:47 AM

It's dutch....

batsone: I've bought 5 of the 12 VCR/DVD's this year, all those comics, the DKR figures and I have that puzzle a couple of years. :)

Cobblepot

10-05-2004, 07:37 AM

Where do you live?
Can't you pick up comics there on a regular basis?

Carmine Falcone

10-05-2004, 09:23 AM

Skipper

10-05-2004, 09:32 AM

You got a nice collection there :)

Where is your HUSH Bats? And Mattel 6' bats?

Carmine Falcone

10-05-2004, 09:35 AM

Don't have them...........yet. :D

I've ordered the Hush bats and Joker, and i don't think it's neccesary to buy the Mattel bats, thank you.

Guyverjay

10-05-2004, 09:57 AM

You have Batman and Robin?:(

WHY?

Cobblepot

10-05-2004, 10:50 AM

No. I live in Dordrecht. I pick up my comics at Stripwinkel Sjors. But they haven't got a big choice in Batman comics, so I have to order them online or go to conventions in Haarlem and Rijswijk. In which Comicshop do you buy your batman comics Cobblepot? The comics i would like to have are; Tales of the Demon, Haunted Knight, when In Rome(when it's out) Also i would like to have knightfall and perhaps No man's land.

I pick them up in Amsterdam sometimes in Rotterdam.
The Hague als has great Comic shops.
You want to pick up When in Rome as loose comics or as a tradepaperback?
Cause part one is already available in Holland.
Does Sjors also have comics, maybe they can order some 4 u?
The guy in Amsterdam (Gojoker) saves them up for me.
He can also send them at my home adress. But I always pick them up myself. I don't trust our postal service with them.
I collect the main Batman titles right now, monthly:
Batman
Detective Comics
Legends of the DK
Batman (that new animated series comicbook)
Gotham Knights
Sometimes I bring home:
Catwoman
Robin
Nightwing
And I collect the "big" mini series, like When In Rome.

No man's land is really cheap on Bol.com, just make sure you get the American editions and not the british by Titan Books.
O, and make sure u bag your comics. You can buy baggies from Ultra pro or Comic Defense in a lot of shops.

*and hey everyone check my "who's your favourite artist" poll, in the comics section*

Carmine Falcone

10-05-2004, 11:58 AM

I want to bu CWIR in TPB. Do you already have the first issue?

When the TPB is out I'll ask Sjors or they can order it.

And about NML; I've seen the first three volumes (TPB)really cheap on some site. just € 27,99 but I do not completly trust it.

Cobblepot

10-05-2004, 12:34 PM

Man that is way to expensive:

Check out this link.
Very cheap and u can trust them (http://www.nl.bol.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/eCS/Store/nl/-/EUR/BOL_ParametricSearch-Start;sid=dOEHYdCnGAsHYJHFuCI5VjB_ds1yBnIh2YY=)

Tabblad Engelse boeken, zoeken op No Man's Land. ;)

Carmine Falcone

10-05-2004, 12:54 PM

Well, on BOL.COM are the first 3 volumes together more then on the site I found them...but I don't trust that site really much...

trouwens verkopen ze ook actiefiguren in de stripwinkel(s)waar je altijd komt?

Cobblepot

10-05-2004, 01:12 PM

O, die site bood ze alle 3 aan voor die prijs, welke site was het?

Ze verkopen actiefiguren bij Henk Lee's in Den Haag ook (ik weet ff niet hoe die shop heet).
En ook in Groningen verkopen ze actiefiguren.

Ik moet ff gaan, work out!

Carmine Falcone

10-05-2004, 01:20 PM

In de herfstvakantie zal ik Groningen met een bezoekje vereren en aldaar het Stripmuseum en een paar(?) stripwinkels.

Carmine Falcone

10-05-2004, 01:21 PM

Hier is de link trouwens:

http://home.wxs.nl/~darkness/tekoop.htm

ziet eruit als een particulier....

Cobblepot

10-05-2004, 04:01 PM

Die links op zijn site werken niet.
Vraag het even na bij je bank, maar als je geld overlaat maken. Kun je het bij de meeste banken binnen 2 weken weer terug vorderen. Als er iets niet inorde is.
Dit is helaas niet zo met Internetbankieren.

Carmine Falcone

10-08-2004, 03:56 PM

YES! Well, guys I'm very happy, I have two HUSH wave 1 figures in order; The Joker and Batman! Expect pics of them soon! As soon as they arrive at my house.

Batman_DKR

10-08-2004, 07:02 PM

hey nice stff you got there Carmine :)

Carmine Falcone

10-09-2004, 03:24 AM

thanks DKR :up:

Cobblepot

10-11-2004, 03:22 PM

Did u get anything new lately?
What's on your wish list?
Just being curious.

Carmine Falcone

10-12-2004, 01:44 AM

I'll get 2 HUSH figures soon, Last week I bought a dead in the family and a lonely place of dying and Haunted Knight and Tales of the Demon are still on my wish list :)

michael jordan

10-12-2004, 01:55 AM

Keep that collection growing Carmine.

Carmine Falcone

10-12-2004, 02:14 AM

I will.

SHADOWBAT69

10-12-2004, 09:40 AM

do you have any desire to get older issues? 70's or 60's? there are alot of good detective stories there. when you start a collection, especially with Batman, there is so much that is out there. is there any one thing you want to concentrate on? comics, figs, art, etc?

Carmine Falcone

10-12-2004, 09:49 AM

NAh, I don't have any desire to get into old comics. I just stick to the regular/cool ones and some more I can find. I want to concentrate on the comics mostly, but I wouldn't say no to a nice poster of B89 Br or BB :D

SHADOWBAT69

10-12-2004, 10:00 AM

i'm curious, why?

when i started i didn't do the older books either. but once i checked them out, i couldn't stop. lol

the reason i'm asking questions is because i started a collection thread awhile back. but it kinda became "my thread". i wanted to know about others collections as well.

Carmine Falcone

10-12-2004, 10:06 AM

I don't like the old campy comics, I like stick to the ones in wich Batman is a dark, bittered character who uses rough methods to get information from criminals etc.

SHADOWBAT69

10-12-2004, 10:10 AM

ah, see, thats what the LATE 60's and 70's books are. when Neal Adams took over, that changed it all. i think one of my favorite lines in those comics was when Bruce said to Alfred , "never in the daytime, Alfred."

Carmine Falcone

10-12-2004, 10:18 AM

cool..
How is Tales of the Demon, how good is it??

SHADOWBAT69

10-12-2004, 12:06 PM

the Ra's al Ghul stories are very good. it reprints some of the Neal Adams books. i have the individual issues. you'll also see some of the influence these stories had on TAS Ra's episodes.

Cobblepot

10-12-2004, 12:55 PM

U should aslo pick up: The Demon Awakes.
It is a must 4 Ra's fans.

michael jordan

10-12-2004, 05:07 PM

cool..
How is Tales of the Demon, how good is it??
I already told you Carmine, lol. It is descent, the only good ones are the Adams stories in it, the rest are cheesy and flamboyant. I hate seeing Batman out of his element in like a snow outfit and skiing, it is just goofy. :rolleyes:

Cobblepot

10-16-2004, 05:13 AM

What did Micheal do to get banned?

Carmine Falcone

10-16-2004, 11:52 AM

don't know.

BTW: I just recieved the Batman and the Joker from the HUSH figure line! Fantastic figures! (God bless HENK ;))

expect pics soon.

Cobblepot

10-16-2004, 11:57 AM

what did you pay for them!
That Batman Rules!

Carmine Falcone

10-16-2004, 12:33 PM

Batman: € 24,99
Joker: € 21,99

+ € 5,00 verzendkosten

= € 51, 98

And yes it rules! :up::up:

Cobblepot

10-16-2004, 01:32 PM

That's a good price.
Have you taken any pictures yet?

Carmine Falcone

10-16-2004, 01:39 PM

yes, maybe I'll get them up today, not really good pics though.

fceeviper

10-24-2004, 05:52 AM

Cobblepot

10-25-2004, 08:44 AM

That's good...But do you have...A HARDCOVER YEAR ONE?!

Superhobo

10-25-2004, 12:57 PM

Cobblepot

batsone

10-26-2004, 09:10 AM

hey what does it mean "en de geest" on the MotP tape?
and funny thing that your cover 4 "batman" is not the usual emblem!

Carmine Falcone

11-07-2004, 11:53 AM

It means Batman and the Ghost. I don't know why the **** they calles it that way but what the heck....:p

And what do you mean by ''your cover for batman isn't the usual emblem'''?

Cobblepot

11-07-2004, 11:53 AM

Those are dutch.
"en the geest" means "and the Phantasm"

And Carmine nice close up pics.
What camera did u use for them?
I like that Hush Batman a lot.

Me want's it.
Bad!!!
Better look your door, Carmine. Very good.

Carmine Falcone

11-07-2004, 11:55 AM

I used a fujifilm a202 digital camera.

Cobblepot

11-07-2004, 11:57 AM

Carmine Falcone

Cobblepot

Cobblepot

12-24-2004, 04:50 PM

Carmine Falcone

12-24-2004, 04:52 PM

Carmine Falcone

12-24-2004, 04:52 PM

If you are only into Comics, you miss alot. :(

Cobblepot

12-24-2004, 05:15 PM

I have read a lot of dutch/european strips but they just didn't do it for me.
I like Slain and Judge Dredd and Storm though. But I don't collect them.

Carmine Falcone

12-24-2004, 05:21 PM

Ok Comics rock too :up:

Cobblepot

02-21-2005, 12:07 PM

Yendor and Dick Boss is selling bags and backerboards, make sure you get the right sizes
DV & TLH and those magazines are a little bigger than the average comics.

Carmine Falcone

06-05-2005, 01:53 PM

Yes it's great. I see you are buying more stuff.
Picked up any Begins toys?
The normal one is only 9,99 Euro's.
I just bought a new JLA dvd. There's two more out now, and a new Batman Adventures dvd which I can't find right now.

THE HARDCOVER YEAR ONE LOOKS GREAT! I LOVE THE COLOURING AND THE SKETCHES! damn good. only € 20,-
I also bought a Sin City TPB and some european comics on Stripfestijn op het Scheffersplein.

I haven't seen Batman Begins toys yet, but Dordrecht will get a new moviestore (Acme's movie store) which has ALOT of movie merchandise and replicas, but that doesn't matter because I don't like the BB figures...they look cheap IMO. I will buy some sin city action figures there though.

I hope that the boxes from TAS will be released in Holland. So I'll wait for that.

Cobblepot

06-06-2005, 03:50 AM

Bol.com has the DV hardcover now for 20 Euro's.
I bought the damn book for 30 or something!

06-06-2005, 03:52 AM

The Sin City figs were garbage. Jessica Alba figure was ridiculously lousy. I bought a F4 figure of her that was about half the price, and looks 10x better.

Full Circle is an awesome book.
I like one of the first pages, it's a classic depiction of Batman and Robin.
Alan Davis is a great artist, he also did some very good covers on TEC.

I forgot all about Dordrecht!
I missed it...
Did they have a lot of back issues?

I haven't read Full Circle yet, but I think the reaper is a pretty cool villain and I was curious where it's about....and it was about €1 ;)

en wat zijn back issues, ik ben niet zo into die termen...

Cobblepot

06-06-2005, 02:32 PM

Back issues zijn eerder verschenen comics.
The reaper made his first appearance in Year Two.
Do you have that aswell?

Ik heb trouwens die Baldakijn series compleet. Het waren mijn eerste comics, nog steeds erg trots op.
Jammer dat ze ermee gekapt zijn. Had nog even goede hoop na Hush, maar nee.
Misschien met BB. De moviespecial komt zeker in NL uit.:up:

Hey Carmine, this piece of Begins merchandise you will surely like. Though, you would have to be a billionaire playboy yourself to be able to afford it. I have already started saving towards it.

Nice collection.
You should use the "macro" mode to get nice pics when shooting objects very close to the camera, most digital camera have it. And to put the camera over some surface to let it perfectly still will help too. The focus will be better. :up:

I'm waiting for my Tim Sale figures to arrive, I'll have them next week.
How's your Batman's ears, are they okay?

My collection is nowhere near big enough to warrant it's own thread.What you see there is all I have.Oh I also have a Penguin figure I just got.It's the same one as in Keyser Soze's pic,from the Secret Files series.

But I do have ALOT of Batman comics and TPB's ;)

That Joker was a kit or not?
It looks great.

The Joker was a kit,but I didn't paint him.The comic store people did that.They had him on dislay in the window.I spotted him as I was leaving.And I simply had to have him.He's just beautiful.

They do alot of kits.You can buy them yourself.But I'm no artist,I'd make a mess of the painting.So I bought the finished product.

Thanks for the compliments guys :)

So your a Joker fan and a Dock Ock fan, that's a weird combo.
How'ed that happened?

LOL! And what Batman villain would be a good combo to go with Ock?? ;)

I don't know,why does anyone come to love a villain?? Something just clicks with you.Joker,like Doc Ock,has got style.He is great at what he does.They are both very intelligent,though Octavius is more intelligent than Joker.

I love Joker for his insanity,and the villainous comedic flare he has.He thinks Gotham is his stage to perform.And Batman is his to kill.As villains go,Joker not only threatens all of Gotham,but also the Batman too.He's the best kind of villain.He's not just personal with Batman.

I love Doc Ock for his classiness,ruthlessness and egotistical personality.He is by far Spider-Man's deadliest arch enemy IMO.The Green Goblin is all about being personal with Spider-Man.But Ock does it big.He threatens not just Spider-Man,but everybody.Millions of innocents.Also like the Joker,Ock wants to be the one to kill Spider-Man in a grand and glorious fashion.

My love for Doc Ock is greater than my love for The Joker.But not by much ;) Both great villains.Different in many ways,but also similar in others.

I just bought Two Face and The Joker from the TLH line. Next time I'll but the bat and the hat :P I don't like the Catwoman figure that much...

I don't like the sculpting that much.
The promo pic looked good but when you get close it isn't that impressive. Not as impressive as Two Face or The Joker for instance. those are the standouts so I got them first.
