It's always a problem to bounce back after such a losing streak, I've heard of people quitting chess after losing so many ELO points! It's great that you didn't quit but are actually trying to recover

You lost that first game so fast, and you even mentioned how the bishop was guarding the checkmate square but still, a couple of turns later you forgot about it, and your opponent realized that and took

Right there, made in Glasgow it is the UK version, first print, 1989. Still in the first book but man, I love how he writes and how the story is developing. I don't have much time to read at the moment

That's right! And these are in great, great condition, @bryan-Imhoff!

Well, at least is colorful, isn't it? Thanks for sharing!

Thanks, Blewitt! Not my cup of tea, since apart from having (now) an online store, I'm also a collector, but of SF/Horror 50s comics. But the item is very well received!

Bryan-imhoff, now it sports tag prices so huge... In the rank of 300/350 dls!

blewitt, go ahead...

saywha -- Yeah, right?! Although I usually depend on memory, being a reader-collector the last 52 years!

The plan was to watch every movie, one per week, until Infinity War, wasn't it? You have a month to watch more than a dozen!

I'll try BMM and yes, Ellis is another favorite... His Planetary is amazing!

Well, there are so few titles now that are complex and give oneself literal hours of reading... The majority of the stuff being pubished is so simple and uncomplicated, you can breeze thru them in 5 minutes,

Thanks. I appreciate it!

Well, yes... Unfortunately, comic books are not cheap nowadays. These issues have a cover price of 4.00, and being a 12-issue maxi series... Some of them command an 8 dollar tag in the secondary market.
