1. “THE WORST COMIC BOOK I EVER BOUGHT WITH MY OWN MONEY” is the title of this eBay auction, and, yes, it’s one of the classic stinker comics. Of course, there’s no way he’s going to get $50,000 for it (well, actually, $49,232.08 after eBay fees)…maybe if he got it CGCed.
2. Todd McFarlane has filed Chapter 11 in bankruptcy court, which I’m sure will bring out plenty of people commenting on his “wasting money” on purchasing record-setting baseballs. Actually, I always thought that was money well-spent…three million dollars on a baseball got him countless millions of dollars’ worth of advertising, in that he was discussed on every radio show, news program, late night talk show, and so on.
Now, you want to talk about Todd McFarlane Productions, Inc. putting money into the wrong thing….
3. Just in case anyone is wondering…“Evilbeard” is an old friend of mine, and he’s just giving me a hard time. He’s not trolling! “Mojo IV” is an old pal as well. I’ll get my revenge on them both later.
4. Dave at Yet Another Comics Blog is offering up $250 in matching donations to the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund if 10 other people pitch in $25 apiece. Get the details here.
