EXIF tags, they tend to be either poorly implemented or completely ignored. In this case it seems like your phone changed the orientation data in the EXIF tag rather than changing the picture itself and then the website stripped the EXIF data from the picture.
Went into my local library this afternoon and found they had a Thorgal tpb and The Tour OGN. They've both been mentioned a bit on here, so I got them out to try.
Thorgal is pretty good, very similar to Conan but much more depth. The Tour is fantastic, I sort of follow the Tour de France so really enjoyed the "tour" through the history of the event.
And here is the solicitation for the second volume of The sixth gun deluxe:
THE SIXTH GUN VOLUME 2 HC
Written by Cullen Bunn, art by Brian Hurtt, Tyler Cook, Bill Crabtree, cover by Brian Hurtt, Bill Crabtree.
Traveling by secret railroad, Becky and Drake accompany an order of mysterious monks on a quest to bury General Hume's body on holy ground. But during a terrifying attack on the train, Drake vanishes without a trace. Alone, Becky sets out to find and rescue Drake -- a journey that takes her to secluded mountain fortresses, decaying towns, and underground strongholds. Along the way, she discovers how deeply her fate... and Drake's own existence... is entwined with that of The Sixth Gun. This deluxe edition collects issues 12 through 23 of the smash hit series, The Sixth Gun, in a massive, new, oversized format jammed with extras and bonus features.
376 pages, $59.99 (Gunslinger Edition, $79.99).
It's almost Christmas time, which means I need my yearly sword and sorcery fix So RE Howard is a given, and I just got into Slaine. So far I'm enjoying the heck out of it.
Haven't read anything else by Puerta. Sadly, Red Baron is the only work that is available in a language I can read. Would love to have more of that (Red Baron preferably in German; it's kinda weird having street thugs from Berlin speak Cockney).
Not sure, don't follow auctions like that anymore but my guess is, for a like new/very good condition you'd have to pay 400 for 2 sets. Word of warning about those editions: they're great, best books I've ever had and will, but when you read them you'll leave soooo much fingerprints on pages you can't even imagine. Use some gloves, I didn't.
I always found that the first volume was hitting the $150-175 mark and the second you could maybe - if lucky - score for $100.
Personally, I'm no longer interested in them. I suppose if I could get both sets for super cheap, I'd jump, but I'm happy with the Big Damn book. It looks great sitting next to Colossal Conan!
All deal discussions, Barnes & Noble codes etc are to go in this thread from now on:
Good Deals Thread
There has been a fair bit of off topic away from Collected Edition discussion, mostly around sales, and how to get them, shipping from B&N etc . All of that can go into the new thread.
I have also put up a PSA about Ebay links, they are not allowed on CBR per the rules which you agreed to when signing up to the forum . Now I have deleted a fair few of these posts lately, so hopefully this will stop that.
Carry on
