1
00:00:03,392 --> 00:00:06,077
It says here that
if the Avengers had that fight

2
00:00:06,111 --> 00:00:07,495
That they had in Manhattan
in the movie...

3
00:00:07,529 --> 00:00:08,646
Uh-huh.

4
00:00:08,681 --> 00:00:11,215
$160 billion worth
of damage.

5
00:00:11,250 --> 00:00:13,701
- Wow.
- Who pays for it?

6
00:00:13,752 --> 00:00:15,586
Like, who's responsible
for the 160 billion?

7
00:00:15,621 --> 00:00:18,389
Well, I mean,
maybe they go after Stark,

8
00:00:18,424 --> 00:00:20,325
Since he's in the public eye.

9
00:00:20,359 --> 00:00:23,494
But I mean,
who has the cajones

10
00:00:23,529 --> 00:00:25,930
To be saved by the Avengers,

11
00:00:25,965 --> 00:00:27,632
And then to sue them
for saving them?

12
00:00:27,666 --> 00:00:31,502
I mean, let's say the Rhino
and Iron Man are fighting.

13
00:00:31,537 --> 00:00:33,087
They crush your car.

14
00:00:33,138 --> 00:00:35,206
He saved you,
but your car is gone now.

15
00:00:35,224 --> 00:00:37,508
You had no insurance,
you have nothing.

16
00:00:37,543 --> 00:00:39,444
I'm driving around
without insurance?

17
00:00:39,478 --> 00:00:40,645
I mean...

18
00:00:40,679 --> 00:00:42,947
Okay.

19
00:00:42,982 --> 00:00:46,184
In this fictional world,
let's assume that's true.

21
00:01:21,620 --> 00:01:24,756
Hello, and welcome to another
episode of Comic Book Men,

22
00:01:24,790 --> 00:01:26,474
The only show
that delivers the mail

23
00:01:26,508 --> 00:01:28,426
To Willie Lumpkin.

24
00:01:28,460 --> 00:01:29,861
- I'm your host, Kevin Smith.
- Bryan Johnson.

25
00:01:29,895 --> 00:01:31,596
- Walt Flanagan.
- Mike Zapcic.

26
00:01:31,630 --> 00:01:32,897
Ming Chen.

27
00:01:32,931 --> 00:01:34,198
So what's been going on
this week?

28
00:01:34,233 --> 00:01:35,533
Something really weird,

29
00:01:35,567 --> 00:01:37,602
Really badass came
into the store the other day.

30
00:01:37,636 --> 00:01:38,970
I'm intrigued.

31
00:01:42,374 --> 00:01:43,408
- Here you go.
- Thank you.

32
00:01:43,442 --> 00:01:44,992
Thank you.
Have a great afternoon.

33
00:01:45,027 --> 00:01:46,210
- Hi.
- How's it going?

34
00:01:46,245 --> 00:01:47,578
- Good.
- I have something

35
00:01:47,613 --> 00:01:48,830
I wanted to bring by.

36
00:01:48,881 --> 00:01:50,681
- Oh, my god!
- See if you'd be interested.

37
00:01:50,716 --> 00:01:52,517
No way!

38
00:01:52,551 --> 00:01:55,420
- Wolverine claws, right?
- Wolverine claws.

39
00:02:01,727 --> 00:02:05,263
Now, wait a minute, wolverine
doesn't have bones and skulls--

40
00:02:05,297 --> 00:02:07,532
- Zombie Wolverine claws.
- Even better.

41
00:02:07,566 --> 00:02:09,834
So this is not licensed,
then-- Wolverine claws.

42
00:02:09,868 --> 00:02:11,235
No. No, it's not licensed.

43
00:02:11,270 --> 00:02:12,570
It still looks badass,
right?

44
00:02:12,604 --> 00:02:13,654
Is that real metal,
like...

45
00:02:13,689 --> 00:02:15,373
- Oh, yeah.
- Where'd you get this?

46
00:02:15,407 --> 00:02:18,776
There's this web site
I ran across that has all kind

47
00:02:18,811 --> 00:02:20,178
Of weird, crazy stuff.

48
00:02:20,212 --> 00:02:23,014
I saw it, and I was, like,
"man, that is neat."

49
00:02:23,048 --> 00:02:24,782
This is dangerous, man.

50
00:02:24,817 --> 00:02:26,734
Why would you want to sell it
at a comic book store?

51
00:02:26,785 --> 00:02:28,219
It sounds like
a legitimate weapon.

52
00:02:28,253 --> 00:02:31,289
I mean, it is. I mean,
it is truly something that--

53
00:02:31,323 --> 00:02:33,324
Like, you could take care
of business with this thing.

54
00:02:33,358 --> 00:02:35,443
Somebody gets in the store
and gets a little frustrated,

55
00:02:35,477 --> 00:02:37,261
They could just pop the claws
and stick, stick, stick.

56
00:02:38,697 --> 00:02:41,399
Try it on.
Be careful.

57
00:02:41,433 --> 00:02:43,868
Do you feel like Logan--
Weapon X?

58
00:02:43,902 --> 00:02:45,403
Yes, I-I do.

59
00:02:45,437 --> 00:02:47,371
Do you think you can
go hunting with that?

60
00:02:47,406 --> 00:02:49,407
You against nature.
You go out and try

61
00:02:49,441 --> 00:02:52,059
To bag a deer
with just those claws

62
00:02:52,094 --> 00:02:53,544
I mean, I'd have to
chase down the deer.

63
00:02:53,562 --> 00:02:56,714
- I think maybe something slower.
- Like a sloth or something?

64
00:02:56,748 --> 00:02:58,983
No, not a sloth,
but like a moose, maybe.

65
00:02:59,017 --> 00:03:01,853
A moose would crush you,
even with those things.

66
00:03:01,887 --> 00:03:04,522
Wolverine versus Freddy.
Who wins?

67
00:03:04,540 --> 00:03:07,391
I think, hands down,
it's Wolverine, man.

68
00:03:07,426 --> 00:03:10,828
Unless Freddy Krueger has
some backup help

69
00:03:10,863 --> 00:03:13,698
From Edward Scissorhands.

70
00:03:13,732 --> 00:03:15,133
Then you've got a two-on-one
claw fight.

71
00:03:15,167 --> 00:03:17,568
- Edward Scissorhands?
- Yeah, he had claws for hands.

72
00:03:17,603 --> 00:03:19,036
He had kind of claw things
going on.

73
00:03:19,071 --> 00:03:21,272
Didn't he use 'em to cut
women's hair and bushes?

74
00:03:22,474 --> 00:03:24,909
Hey, hey, hey.
We call them "pubic regions."

75
00:03:27,079 --> 00:03:28,913
- Why are you selling it?
- When I got it,

76
00:03:28,947 --> 00:03:31,582
The dog saw it,
and she freaked out.

77
00:03:31,617 --> 00:03:34,051
And now every time
I kind of bring it out,

78
00:03:34,086 --> 00:03:36,521
She's hiding underneath
the table for a good day.

79
00:03:36,555 --> 00:03:39,056
All right, so what are you
looking to get for the claws?

80
00:03:39,091 --> 00:03:40,791
Uh, about 60 bucks.

81
00:03:40,826 --> 00:03:43,694
60 bucks, huh?
I don't know.

82
00:03:43,729 --> 00:03:45,896
60 bucks--it looks like
it's kinda almost like

83
00:03:45,914 --> 00:03:48,065
What you would quote, unquote,
call a "knock-off."

84
00:03:48,100 --> 00:03:50,267
It is a nice knock-off,

85
00:03:50,285 --> 00:03:52,236
But any way you slice it,
it's still a knock-off.

86
00:03:52,270 --> 00:03:53,704
What? Dude...

87
00:03:53,739 --> 00:03:54,772
Dude, watch where
you point those things.

88
00:03:56,608 --> 00:03:58,142
Would you take $30
for it?

89
00:03:58,177 --> 00:04:00,611
I'd do $45.

90
00:04:02,814 --> 00:04:04,115
Mm...Yeah...

91
00:04:04,149 --> 00:04:05,383
Meet me in the middle.

92
00:04:05,417 --> 00:04:08,319
$37.

93
00:04:08,353 --> 00:04:10,471
Even $40.
I like even numbers.

94
00:04:10,505 --> 00:04:12,857
Sticked!

95
00:04:12,891 --> 00:04:14,008
All right,
we'll do $40 on it.

96
00:04:14,059 --> 00:04:16,260
All right.
Can we shake on it, like that?

97
00:04:20,766 --> 00:04:22,967
All right, guys,
top ten robots of all time.

98
00:04:23,001 --> 00:04:24,235
Division?

99
00:04:24,269 --> 00:04:26,137
I was thinking more, maybe,

100
00:04:26,171 --> 00:04:27,405
Lost in Space robot.

101
00:04:27,439 --> 00:04:28,772
What are you laughing at?

102
00:04:28,790 --> 00:04:30,408
He's at the top
of your list?

103
00:04:30,442 --> 00:04:32,643
The danger--danger--

104
00:04:32,678 --> 00:04:34,478
Danger, Walt Flanagan.
Danger.

105
00:04:34,513 --> 00:04:35,646
Nothing you could be
talking about

106
00:04:35,681 --> 00:04:38,049
That is more important
than this right now.

107
00:04:38,083 --> 00:04:39,984
You've been here, man--
readies?

108
00:04:40,018 --> 00:04:41,419
I have. And?

109
00:04:41,453 --> 00:04:44,071
There are 97 sandwiches
on here, right?

110
00:04:44,122 --> 00:04:46,424
All named after businesses,
streets...

111
00:04:46,458 --> 00:04:48,459
- Okay.
- Guess what's not on here.

112
00:04:48,493 --> 00:04:49,660
What?

113
00:04:49,695 --> 00:04:51,662
- Secret Stash.
- Wow.

114
00:04:51,697 --> 00:04:55,232
Whoa, that's--
man, what a slap in the face.

115
00:04:55,250 --> 00:04:56,367
You know this dude?

116
00:04:56,401 --> 00:04:57,568
I mean, I've seen him.
He knows us.

117
00:04:57,603 --> 00:04:58,869
He must not know us.

118
00:04:58,904 --> 00:05:00,972
Why aren't we
on the menu, then?

119
00:05:01,006 --> 00:05:04,025
Call him. Tell him we want
a sandwich on the menu.

120
00:05:04,076 --> 00:05:06,460
We're a fixture in town.
We've been here for 15 years.

121
00:05:06,495 --> 00:05:08,613
Why not us?
Why can't we have a sandwich?

122
00:05:08,647 --> 00:05:09,814
Totally.

123
00:05:09,848 --> 00:05:10,915
I think there's
an old sandwich club.

124
00:05:10,949 --> 00:05:13,351
You know,
you gotta know somebody...

125
00:05:13,385 --> 00:05:16,053
Smells like sandwich
illuminati to me.

126
00:05:18,490 --> 00:05:19,957
The Flash of Two Worlds.

127
00:05:19,975 --> 00:05:21,208
I was looking for $450.

128
00:05:21,260 --> 00:05:25,162
Let's pretend $50
is worth $1,000.

129
00:05:25,197 --> 00:05:26,931
What do we gotta do
to get on the menu?

130
00:05:26,965 --> 00:05:28,799
Why don't you guys
make the sandwich?

131
00:05:28,834 --> 00:05:30,234
A sandwich competition?

132
00:05:32,096 --> 00:05:33,763
So every sandwich
that readies sells

133
00:05:33,797 --> 00:05:35,465
They name after a business
in town.

134
00:05:35,499 --> 00:05:38,468
But somehow,
we're not represented

135
00:05:38,502 --> 00:05:40,403
- On the sandwich pool.
- Exactly.

136
00:05:40,437 --> 00:05:41,904
So I called him over.
I'm like, "come over. Now.

137
00:05:41,922 --> 00:05:43,106
We gotta talk to you."

138
00:05:43,140 --> 00:05:44,907
- You called?
- Tom, what's happening?

139
00:05:44,942 --> 00:05:46,075
- What's happening, brother?
- Hey.

140
00:05:46,110 --> 00:05:47,410
- Hey, how you doing?
- Good. Good.

141
00:05:47,444 --> 00:05:48,961
We just wanted
to call you over

142
00:05:48,996 --> 00:05:51,130
And maybe talk a little bit
about your menu

143
00:05:51,165 --> 00:05:53,633
And its startling omission.

144
00:05:53,667 --> 00:05:56,636
- The Secret Stash.
- The Secret Stash.

145
00:05:56,670 --> 00:05:57,887
As if you didn't know.

146
00:05:57,921 --> 00:05:59,222
What do we gotta do
to get on the menu?

147
00:05:59,256 --> 00:06:00,490
Is there some sort
of selection committee

148
00:06:00,524 --> 00:06:02,725
- We gotta go in front of?
- It's all me.

149
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,060
It's all you?

150
00:06:04,094 --> 00:06:06,295
So why don't you guys
make the sandwich?

151
00:06:06,330 --> 00:06:08,014
- What are your thoughts?
- Like a sandwich competition?

152
00:06:08,048 --> 00:06:09,132
- Yeah.
- Yeah.

153
00:06:09,166 --> 00:06:10,867
- Let's do it.
- All right.

154
00:06:10,901 --> 00:06:11,901
Me and Mike.

155
00:06:11,935 --> 00:06:13,086
No, no, me and Mike.

156
00:06:13,137 --> 00:06:15,088
Why you--no.
It's always you and Mike.

157
00:06:15,139 --> 00:06:16,372
And it's always me and Bry.

158
00:06:16,390 --> 00:06:17,557
This time, let's switch it up
a little bit.

159
00:06:17,591 --> 00:06:19,409
No, no.
I want Mike on my team.

160
00:06:19,443 --> 00:06:20,993
- He's a trained chef.
- Oh, okay, all right.

161
00:06:21,028 --> 00:06:22,862
You figured me out.
All right.

162
00:06:22,913 --> 00:06:24,197
He was a chef 15 years ago.

163
00:06:24,248 --> 00:06:25,915
I know, but wait.
Let's hold on here a second.

164
00:06:25,949 --> 00:06:27,550
He's a chef.

165
00:06:27,584 --> 00:06:28,918
I don't even know
what a sandwich looks like,

166
00:06:28,936 --> 00:06:30,053
Basically.

167
00:06:30,087 --> 00:06:32,088
- What?
- I've never eaten a sandwich.

168
00:06:34,925 --> 00:06:39,228
See, I thought,
here's a guy who is pure.

169
00:06:39,263 --> 00:06:41,264
There is nothing inside him
that is, like,

170
00:06:41,298 --> 00:06:42,932
"well, a sandwich has
to be this."

171
00:06:42,966 --> 00:06:45,034
He's got no corned beef
agenda.

172
00:06:47,171 --> 00:06:48,671
You know what?
Screw it.

173
00:06:48,705 --> 00:06:51,441
Yeah, let's do it.
Me and you against you and Ming.

174
00:06:51,475 --> 00:06:52,642
- Cool.
- And how about you judge

175
00:06:52,676 --> 00:06:53,760
The sandwiches, then?

176
00:06:53,794 --> 00:06:54,911
Seems apropos.

177
00:06:54,945 --> 00:06:56,212
And whatever one
that tastes the best

178
00:06:56,246 --> 00:06:58,014
And looks the best,
that becomes

179
00:06:58,048 --> 00:07:00,650
That becomes the Secret Stash
superhero.

180
00:07:04,688 --> 00:07:06,989
- Hey, guys, how are you?
- How you doing?

181
00:07:07,024 --> 00:07:08,107
I brought you something
I thought you might

182
00:07:08,158 --> 00:07:11,427
- Be interested in.
- Flash of Two Worlds.

183
00:07:18,135 --> 00:07:21,187
The golden age Flash meets
the silver age Flash.

184
00:07:21,221 --> 00:07:22,805
The Flash of one world
is boring enough.

185
00:07:22,839 --> 00:07:24,907
Why do they need two?

186
00:07:24,942 --> 00:07:27,209
This is great because
it introduced to D.C. Comics

187
00:07:27,227 --> 00:07:29,428
The concept of a multiverse.

188
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,748
There wasn't just one Earth
that this guy was on.

189
00:07:32,782 --> 00:07:35,218
There was another Earth
that this guy lived on.

190
00:07:35,252 --> 00:07:36,752
I always thought the Flash
was so cool

191
00:07:36,787 --> 00:07:39,255
Because he was always
so forthright, honest.

192
00:07:39,273 --> 00:07:40,523
- You know...
- Straightlaced.

193
00:07:40,557 --> 00:07:42,625
- Are you straightlaced?
- What can I tell you?

194
00:07:42,659 --> 00:07:44,827
I'm an attorney. It doesn't get
more straightlaced, right?

195
00:07:44,862 --> 00:07:46,529
You gotta follow
so many rules, right?

196
00:07:46,563 --> 00:07:49,282
Why don't you let your hair
down today, let's get crazy.

197
00:07:49,316 --> 00:07:50,533
Let's smoke some crack.

198
00:07:50,567 --> 00:07:53,970
I don't think I'd--

199
00:07:54,004 --> 00:07:56,339
Am I in the right place?

200
00:07:56,373 --> 00:07:59,108
No.

201
00:07:59,143 --> 00:08:00,776
What kind of law
do you practice?

202
00:08:00,794 --> 00:08:02,411
I do defense work.
Civil defense work.

203
00:08:02,445 --> 00:08:04,113
You're an ambulance chaser.

204
00:08:04,148 --> 00:08:05,248
No, no.

205
00:08:05,282 --> 00:08:07,283
I hope you're not gonna try

206
00:08:07,317 --> 00:08:09,886
To pull out some sort of vial
of fluid,

207
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:11,220
Squirt it on the floor
at the Stash here today.

208
00:08:11,238 --> 00:08:12,288
No, no.

209
00:08:12,322 --> 00:08:13,539
My back! My neck!

210
00:08:13,574 --> 00:08:15,491
My neck and my back!

211
00:08:15,526 --> 00:08:16,859
No!

212
00:08:16,894 --> 00:08:19,245
It's fun to roast
a customer

213
00:08:19,279 --> 00:08:20,963
Every once in a while.

214
00:08:20,998 --> 00:08:22,281
You have to have
the perfect storm, as they say.

215
00:08:22,316 --> 00:08:24,700
You've gotta have a customer
come in that, you know,

216
00:08:24,735 --> 00:08:25,835
You could tell, you know,

217
00:08:25,869 --> 00:08:27,003
You could play around with
a little bit.

218
00:08:27,037 --> 00:08:28,471
And if you also have an item

219
00:08:28,505 --> 00:08:30,072
That you really
don't care about.

220
00:08:30,107 --> 00:08:31,057
That's a big part of it.

221
00:08:31,091 --> 00:08:33,042
All right,
all kidding aside,

222
00:08:33,076 --> 00:08:35,077
What are you looking for
for the statue today?

223
00:08:35,112 --> 00:08:36,746
I was looking for $450.

224
00:08:36,780 --> 00:08:39,315
- Okay.
- Keep looking.

225
00:08:40,684 --> 00:08:43,836
Maybe on Earth II
we'd sell this for $450.

226
00:08:43,887 --> 00:08:45,855
Let's pretend
we're on Earth II.

227
00:08:45,889 --> 00:08:47,023
Okay.

228
00:08:47,057 --> 00:08:48,257
What do you think
we could do with this?

229
00:08:48,292 --> 00:08:50,693
Let's pretend,
on Earth II,

230
00:08:50,727 --> 00:08:54,864
$50 is worth $1,000.

231
00:08:54,898 --> 00:08:56,566
- Oof, no, no. Now...
- No?

232
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,601
$60?

233
00:08:58,635 --> 00:09:00,303
No.

234
00:09:00,337 --> 00:09:02,705
I can go down to $400.

235
00:09:02,739 --> 00:09:04,640
Here's what you do.
You take it outside,

236
00:09:04,675 --> 00:09:06,642
Throw it through
the windshield of your car,

237
00:09:06,677 --> 00:09:09,946
Collect the insurance money,
don't get the windshield fixed.

238
00:09:09,980 --> 00:09:11,046
That's gonna give you
way more

239
00:09:11,064 --> 00:09:12,465
Than you ever would
have gotten here.

240
00:09:12,516 --> 00:09:14,584
- You want me to commit fraud.
- Little bit of insurance fraud.

241
00:09:14,618 --> 00:09:15,618
- Just a little bit.
- Come on,

242
00:09:15,636 --> 00:09:17,420
Like you haven't
done it before?

243
00:09:17,454 --> 00:09:20,957
Not even thought about it.

244
00:09:20,991 --> 00:09:22,458
Well, that is the best
I could do.

245
00:09:22,492 --> 00:09:25,061
So I think for now
I'm just gonna probably

246
00:09:25,095 --> 00:09:26,162
Put it back in the garage.

247
00:09:26,196 --> 00:09:27,530
All right, man. Sorry.

248
00:09:27,564 --> 00:09:28,664
You know, that's all right.
Thanks anyway, guys.

249
00:09:28,699 --> 00:09:30,232
I appreciate it.
Take care.

250
00:09:30,250 --> 00:09:31,634
Have a great day.

251
00:09:31,668 --> 00:09:34,437
What are you gonna do, man?

252
00:09:34,471 --> 00:09:36,772
The very first appearance
of Spider-Man.

253
00:09:36,807 --> 00:09:38,241
I mean, they talk about
key issues--

254
00:09:38,275 --> 00:09:39,942
This is the keystone!

255
00:09:42,474 --> 00:09:44,175
When was the first time
you saw Star Wars?

256
00:09:44,209 --> 00:09:46,010
Two weeks into
its initial run.

257
00:09:46,044 --> 00:09:49,547
My mom came home about a month
or two before it came out,

258
00:09:49,581 --> 00:09:51,182
And she goes, "you're gonna love
this movie that's coming out.

259
00:09:51,216 --> 00:09:53,384
It's about a wolfman
in outer space."

260
00:09:53,418 --> 00:09:54,885
And I was like,
"I am gonna love that movie."

261
00:09:57,389 --> 00:09:58,939
Star Wars really
changed everything for me.

262
00:09:58,990 --> 00:10:03,461
It was the great
social lubricant of its day.

263
00:10:03,495 --> 00:10:05,563
Because of those figures,
like, you'd wind up

264
00:10:05,597 --> 00:10:07,448
Playing with people you probably
wouldn't have otherwise.

265
00:10:07,499 --> 00:10:09,166
Like, I remember hanging out
with John Kovic

266
00:10:09,201 --> 00:10:11,202
And Chris Dominguez
in grammar school,

267
00:10:11,236 --> 00:10:12,453
And they were more athletes.

268
00:10:12,504 --> 00:10:14,238
I didn't play any sports
or anything.

269
00:10:14,272 --> 00:10:16,106
But Star Wars was
the common bond for us.

270
00:10:16,141 --> 00:10:17,241
So even though--

271
00:10:17,275 --> 00:10:18,309
- That friendship was doomed
to failure.

272
00:10:18,343 --> 00:10:19,510
Why? Why?

273
00:10:19,544 --> 00:10:21,612
You know, kids will still
play football

274
00:10:21,646 --> 00:10:23,447
Into their teens.

275
00:10:23,482 --> 00:10:24,732
And, you know,
in their late teens,

276
00:10:24,783 --> 00:10:27,651
Most kids stop playing
with their action figures.

277
00:10:27,686 --> 00:10:31,355
Standing on the sidelines.

278
00:10:31,389 --> 00:10:35,125
Don't tackle him,
I've got a new Lando!

279
00:10:46,073 --> 00:10:47,573
- How you doing?
- How you doing?

280
00:10:47,608 --> 00:10:48,574
Something here
I think you might

281
00:10:48,608 --> 00:10:49,775
- Be interested in.
- Okay.

282
00:10:49,810 --> 00:10:52,278
It's been a treasure here
for a while.

283
00:10:52,296 --> 00:10:54,280
Oh, my God.

284
00:10:54,298 --> 00:10:55,515
And I think you might
be interested.

285
00:10:55,549 --> 00:10:56,749
The very first appearance
of Spider-Man.

286
00:10:56,783 --> 00:10:59,152
- Is this an original?
- It is original.

287
00:10:59,186 --> 00:11:00,820
It's the Stanley Cup
of comic books, boys.

288
00:11:00,854 --> 00:11:02,188
Oh, my God.

289
00:11:09,596 --> 00:11:11,864
This pretty much
ushered in

290
00:11:11,899 --> 00:11:13,032
The marvel age
of comic books.

291
00:11:13,066 --> 00:11:15,434
It was probably
one of the first times

292
00:11:15,469 --> 00:11:17,904
That a superhero had
major problems.

293
00:11:17,938 --> 00:11:19,155
- Oh, yeah?
- Yep.

294
00:11:19,189 --> 00:11:21,841
Basically, nothing ever
went right for Peter Parker.

295
00:11:21,875 --> 00:11:25,845
And it spawned
the neurotic superhero.

296
00:11:25,879 --> 00:11:27,647
'cause he was basically
Charlie Brown.

297
00:11:27,681 --> 00:11:29,982
<i>We have never had
an Amazing Fantasy 15</i>

298
00:11:30,016 --> 00:11:31,050
Come to the door.

299
00:11:31,084 --> 00:11:32,168
I mean, how many years
have we gone

300
00:11:32,219 --> 00:11:33,469
And been like,
"maybe today's the day"?

301
00:11:33,503 --> 00:11:34,620
Dude, nobody's gonna know
this is yours

302
00:11:34,655 --> 00:11:36,172
If you don't write
your name on it.

303
00:11:36,223 --> 00:11:39,358
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

304
00:11:39,393 --> 00:11:41,377
It must have been
a nice book to see, man.

305
00:11:41,411 --> 00:11:43,596
Oh, it was like being
hit in the face

306
00:11:43,630 --> 00:11:45,198
With a web shooter.

307
00:11:45,232 --> 00:11:46,549
When the guy pulled out--

308
00:11:46,583 --> 00:11:47,767
- A comic book web shooter.

309
00:11:49,069 --> 00:11:50,636
- Did you buy it off the stands?
- No.

310
00:11:50,671 --> 00:11:52,872
First birthday,
took him to a comic show,

311
00:11:52,906 --> 00:11:54,790
Back in 1982.

312
00:11:54,841 --> 00:11:56,442
The guy was anxious
to sell this

313
00:11:56,476 --> 00:11:58,561
For about $65 or so.

314
00:11:58,612 --> 00:12:01,931
After all these years, you're
looking to try to sell it?

315
00:12:01,982 --> 00:12:04,050
Yeah, it takes a lot
to part with it,

316
00:12:04,084 --> 00:12:05,885
But we think
it might be time.

317
00:12:05,919 --> 00:12:08,688
We have two granddaughters--
his two twins--

318
00:12:08,722 --> 00:12:11,624
Going to parochial school...
Tuitions and things like that.

319
00:12:11,658 --> 00:12:13,492
Home school 'em
and keep the comic.

320
00:12:15,462 --> 00:12:16,996
- All right, guys.
- What's your pric

321
00:12:17,030 --> 00:12:18,998
What are you asking
for it?

322
00:12:19,032 --> 00:12:21,267
We're looking at
about 18.

323
00:12:21,301 --> 00:12:25,238
- $18,000?
- $18,000?

324
00:12:25,272 --> 00:12:27,139
Would you mind if I brought
somebody else in?

325
00:12:27,174 --> 00:12:28,691
Absolutely not.

326
00:12:28,742 --> 00:12:30,610
He's kind of our guy
that we go to

327
00:12:30,644 --> 00:12:34,480
When something comes in
that's of significant value.

328
00:12:34,514 --> 00:12:37,082
We brought Robert Bruce,
the pop cultures expert,

329
00:12:37,100 --> 00:12:38,784
Just because,
you know what?

330
00:12:38,819 --> 00:12:40,452
It doesn't happen every day
where a book of this magnitude

331
00:12:40,470 --> 00:12:41,470
Walks through the door.

332
00:12:41,505 --> 00:12:42,621
And, you know,
he would have killed me

333
00:12:42,639 --> 00:12:44,857
If I didn't call him.

334
00:12:44,891 --> 00:12:48,077
This is probably the greatest
silver age comic book

335
00:12:48,111 --> 00:12:49,262
Ever created.

336
00:12:49,296 --> 00:12:51,430
I mean, they talk about
key issues--

337
00:12:51,464 --> 00:12:52,898
This is the keystone

338
00:12:52,933 --> 00:12:54,984
That everything else Marvel
was built upon.

339
00:12:55,018 --> 00:12:56,102
What number would you put
on it, though,

340
00:12:56,136 --> 00:12:57,737
In terms of a grade?

341
00:12:57,771 --> 00:13:00,172
The edges are sharp
and clean.

342
00:13:00,190 --> 00:13:01,907
There's not a lot
a great deal of chipping.

343
00:13:01,942 --> 00:13:05,244
There is a nice tear
across the cover, unfortunately.

344
00:13:05,279 --> 00:13:09,932
The tape really detracts
from the overall condition.

345
00:13:09,967 --> 00:13:13,686
Cgc graded,
you're talking 2.0.

346
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,988
I mean, if I was gonna
buy this book personally,

347
00:13:16,023 --> 00:13:18,491
I would offer you $2,500.

348
00:13:18,525 --> 00:13:21,661
I have to say
that's very disappointing.

349
00:13:21,695 --> 00:13:23,779
I probably could do
a bit better than that

350
00:13:23,814 --> 00:13:26,232
Because it is so significant.

351
00:13:26,266 --> 00:13:30,369
Um...Would you do $3,000?

352
00:13:30,404 --> 00:13:31,904
How about, like, $8,500?

353
00:13:31,938 --> 00:13:34,707
Ooh...Um...
I'm sorry, fellas.

354
00:13:34,741 --> 00:13:37,977
That's more than the book
is worth right now.

355
00:13:38,011 --> 00:13:39,228
Okay. I appreciate
your guys' time

356
00:13:39,279 --> 00:13:41,163
For taking to look at it.
Maybe another time.

357
00:13:41,214 --> 00:13:42,715
There you go, fellas.

358
00:13:42,749 --> 00:13:46,102
- Good night.
- Good night, now.

359
00:13:46,136 --> 00:13:47,803
That's, like,
Stash history.

360
00:13:47,854 --> 00:13:51,624
Well, no, history would have
been if we got the book.

361
00:13:53,093 --> 00:13:54,894
- You ready?
- Yeah, let's go.

362
00:13:54,928 --> 00:13:58,197
Let's make some magic.
Let's get our oil going.

363
00:13:58,231 --> 00:13:59,765
Get that nice and hot.

364
00:13:59,783 --> 00:14:03,069
All right, first, flour.
Very nice.

365
00:14:03,103 --> 00:14:05,304
Chefy over here,
you know you've got this thing

366
00:14:05,338 --> 00:14:08,007
Dead to rights 'cause you've
cooked at a ret-rant.

367
00:14:08,041 --> 00:14:09,742
Yes. We went simple.

368
00:14:09,776 --> 00:14:11,510
You know, what do people like?
Fried chicken.

369
00:14:11,545 --> 00:14:13,979
Go simple and tasty.

370
00:14:14,014 --> 00:14:16,282
Be honest, though.
What did he contribute

371
00:14:16,316 --> 00:14:18,784
- To the whole sandwich?
- I had the taste buds.

372
00:14:18,819 --> 00:14:20,886
If that sandwich tasted like
crap, I would have told him.

373
00:14:20,921 --> 00:14:23,356
He made sure his butt
was chapped beyond red.

374
00:14:23,390 --> 00:14:25,891
"Ooh, that's a good sandwich!

375
00:14:25,909 --> 00:14:30,029
Ooh, that's a nice sandwich."

376
00:14:30,063 --> 00:14:32,031
This is real deal
gourmet cooking.

377
00:14:32,065 --> 00:14:34,133
Beautiful.

378
00:14:34,167 --> 00:14:36,402
- What is that?
- Secret ingredient.

379
00:14:36,436 --> 00:14:39,772
Apple jam, which is
oh, so delicious.

380
00:14:39,806 --> 00:14:41,574
- Awesome.
- There we go.

381
00:14:41,608 --> 00:14:44,510
The Secret Stash Superhero.

382
00:14:44,544 --> 00:14:46,345
What kind of sandwich
were you looking to make?

383
00:14:46,380 --> 00:14:48,814
We knew that these two squares
were gonna go in

384
00:14:48,849 --> 00:14:50,216
And make something, you know,
that the world has seen.

385
00:14:50,250 --> 00:14:52,785
- Something dainty.
- Yeah, yeah. Something safe.

386
00:14:52,819 --> 00:14:55,688
So we wanted to go
180 from that

387
00:14:55,722 --> 00:14:58,357
And make something
anti-establishment.

388
00:14:58,392 --> 00:14:59,959
The fight club
of sandwiches.

389
00:14:59,993 --> 00:15:01,010
Yes.

390
00:15:01,044 --> 00:15:04,029
Smoked turkey, your ham,

391
00:15:04,064 --> 00:15:06,532
Roast beef,
and your bacon.

392
00:15:06,566 --> 00:15:09,435
Ooh, that's gonna make me
vomit, bro. Eww.

393
00:15:09,469 --> 00:15:11,370
All right, well, you tell me.
What do you want to do first?

394
00:15:11,405 --> 00:15:13,038
I don't know.
Cut some bread.

395
00:15:13,073 --> 00:15:15,574
What, are you bailing
on me now?

396
00:15:15,609 --> 00:15:16,976
What, I can't
touch this stuff, man.

397
00:15:17,010 --> 00:15:18,310
What the hell
do you need me to do?

398
00:15:18,345 --> 00:15:19,945
I told you, man,
this is the strategy--

399
00:15:19,980 --> 00:15:22,715
Outside the box. You tell me,
I'll put it together.

400
00:15:22,749 --> 00:15:24,717
- Use it all.
- You want it all?

401
00:15:24,751 --> 00:15:28,687
Put it all on there, man.
Load that crap up.

402
00:15:28,722 --> 00:15:30,322
I would not have thought
of that.

403
00:15:30,357 --> 00:15:32,024
- Really.
- Yeah. It's genius.

404
00:15:32,058 --> 00:15:34,360
You're right. We'll put
everything onto one sandwich,

405
00:15:34,394 --> 00:15:37,196
And that's it, right?
- Booyah.

406
00:15:37,230 --> 00:15:38,597
This is as close
as we've ever had

407
00:15:38,632 --> 00:15:41,133
To a real, live superhero
walk in here.

408
00:15:41,168 --> 00:15:43,536
Gaze upon perfection.

409
00:15:43,570 --> 00:15:45,638
- What's in there?
- What's not in there, tom?

410
00:15:51,787 --> 00:15:52,887
- How you doing?
- Hello.

411
00:15:52,905 --> 00:15:54,589
I'm here to sell
my Chewbacca.

412
00:15:54,623 --> 00:15:56,507
Chewbacca, huh? Wow.

413
00:15:56,542 --> 00:15:58,126
I've always been
a wookiee fan.

414
00:16:06,268 --> 00:16:08,419
So where'd you get this from?

415
00:16:08,470 --> 00:16:11,606
I won it at a costume contest
and super-mega show.

416
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,274
I was dressed up
as Captain America.

417
00:16:13,308 --> 00:16:15,109
You were dressed--
you know what?

418
00:16:15,143 --> 00:16:16,444
You could handle
a Captain America suit

419
00:16:16,478 --> 00:16:17,595
With those guns.

420
00:16:17,629 --> 00:16:19,363
You go to a lot
of costume contests?

421
00:16:19,398 --> 00:16:21,399
Um, no.
I do a lot of charity work.

422
00:16:21,450 --> 00:16:24,619
Charity work dressed in the
costume of Captain America.

423
00:16:24,653 --> 00:16:25,786
- Yes, sir.
- What made you decide--

424
00:16:25,821 --> 00:16:26,871
You're like,
"I'm just gonna dress up

425
00:16:26,905 --> 00:16:28,823
And just start doing
good deeds"?

426
00:16:28,857 --> 00:16:30,658
Growing up, I read
a lot of comic books,

427
00:16:30,676 --> 00:16:31,959
Especially Captain America.

428
00:16:31,993 --> 00:16:33,227
I got very into it.

429
00:16:33,262 --> 00:16:35,329
I was bullied a lot as a child,
and so I saw, like--

430
00:16:35,364 --> 00:16:36,731
- Really?
- Yeah.

431
00:16:36,765 --> 00:16:38,132
- Like Steve Rogers.
- Yeah.

432
00:16:38,167 --> 00:16:40,234
He's a strong role model
to kids that were weak

433
00:16:40,269 --> 00:16:42,836
And became strong
for other people.

434
00:16:42,855 --> 00:16:44,555
You ever been inspired enough,

435
00:16:44,606 --> 00:16:45,773
Maybe to, like,
say to yourself,

436
00:16:45,807 --> 00:16:47,225
"you know what?
I'm gonna go out there and do--

437
00:16:47,276 --> 00:16:49,810
I'm gonna go out on the real
streets, the hard streets"?

438
00:16:49,844 --> 00:16:51,195
I have. I was actually
a police officer

439
00:16:51,230 --> 00:16:53,548
- In Massachusetts.
- No way.

440
00:16:53,582 --> 00:16:55,650
- Mm-hmm.
- By far, this is as close

441
00:16:55,684 --> 00:16:56,934
As we've ever had
to a real, live superhero

442
00:16:56,985 --> 00:16:58,085
Walking in here.

443
00:16:58,120 --> 00:16:59,820
This guy was awesome, man.

444
00:16:59,855 --> 00:17:02,590
He--he actually looked like
a superhero.

445
00:17:02,624 --> 00:17:04,492
Not only his actions
were super-heroic,

446
00:17:04,526 --> 00:17:07,028
He had guns out to here.
Oh, he was a big dude.

447
00:17:07,062 --> 00:17:08,930
And he was so
super-respectful.

448
00:17:08,964 --> 00:17:11,048
I mean, it was literally
like talking to Steve Rogers,

449
00:17:11,099 --> 00:17:12,300
It felt like.

450
00:17:12,334 --> 00:17:14,285
Sounds like one of those
gentle giant types, man.

451
00:17:14,336 --> 00:17:17,171
Big dude, but, like,
comes across soft, like...

452
00:17:17,206 --> 00:17:18,289
- You just want to hug the guy.
- Yes.

453
00:17:18,323 --> 00:17:20,208
You just want to hug
this lovable lug.

454
00:17:23,312 --> 00:17:25,630
So you won this
in the costume contest.

455
00:17:25,681 --> 00:17:27,281
Yeah, and never touched it.
Never used it.

456
00:17:27,316 --> 00:17:28,983
- Not a model man?
- No, not at all.

457
00:17:29,017 --> 00:17:31,452
I just left everything
as is.

458
00:17:31,486 --> 00:17:32,686
Okay. And you're looking
to sell it today?

459
00:17:32,704 --> 00:17:33,704
Yes, sir.

460
00:17:33,739 --> 00:17:34,855
What are you looking
for it for?

461
00:17:34,890 --> 00:17:36,690
Um, at least
the face value.

462
00:17:36,708 --> 00:17:38,542
I saw that it's worth,
like $65.

463
00:17:38,577 --> 00:17:39,860
At least that.

464
00:17:39,878 --> 00:17:41,746
We're not really
a model store, though.

465
00:17:41,797 --> 00:17:43,030
You look around,
we don't sell models,

466
00:17:43,065 --> 00:17:46,450
- And we don't have a lot of--
- You do now!

467
00:17:46,501 --> 00:17:49,253
Yes, sir.

468
00:17:49,288 --> 00:17:50,838
Um, yeah, we just
don't do models, though.

469
00:17:50,872 --> 00:17:54,775
So I mean, I'd be interested
in it, but not at $65, though.

470
00:17:54,809 --> 00:17:56,510
I'm just throwing this number
out there,

471
00:17:56,528 --> 00:17:58,813
Not to insult you,
of course.

472
00:17:58,847 --> 00:17:59,864
I have the utmost respect
for you and what you do

473
00:17:59,898 --> 00:18:01,282
And how you dress and--

474
00:18:01,316 --> 00:18:04,235
- But free.
- Oh...

475
00:18:04,286 --> 00:18:05,903
"just give it to me."

476
00:18:05,954 --> 00:18:07,955
No, but I mean
would you take $10 for it?

477
00:18:07,990 --> 00:18:12,176
Um, is there any way
you can do $20?

478
00:18:12,210 --> 00:18:14,378
Just so I can get home.
- What?

479
00:18:14,429 --> 00:18:16,464
It cost me over $30
to get here.

480
00:18:16,498 --> 00:18:19,450
Cap's losing money
on this deal, thanks to you.

481
00:18:19,501 --> 00:18:21,786
- I don't want Cap to walk home.
- What a patriot.

482
00:18:23,288 --> 00:18:25,456
Yeah, I paid
to come see you guys today.

483
00:18:25,507 --> 00:18:26,624
You know what?
I'll just go with $30.

484
00:18:26,675 --> 00:18:28,843
If it was anybody else
but Captain America

485
00:18:28,877 --> 00:18:30,061
In front of me right now...

486
00:18:30,095 --> 00:18:31,112
They'd be walking
out the door,

487
00:18:31,146 --> 00:18:33,180
Taking it on the arches?

488
00:18:33,198 --> 00:18:35,082
$30. $30's good.
I didn't know that

489
00:18:35,100 --> 00:18:36,684
You were--okay.

490
00:18:36,718 --> 00:18:39,203
Thank you.
Thank you very much, guys.

491
00:18:39,254 --> 00:18:40,588
- I really appreciate it.
- It was an honor meeting you.

492
00:18:40,622 --> 00:18:43,291
Thanks, man.
- Thanks a lot.

493
00:18:43,325 --> 00:18:46,160
Guys, I think it's about time
that the Secret Stash

494
00:18:46,194 --> 00:18:49,897
Has a sandwich
on readies' menu.

495
00:18:49,931 --> 00:18:52,500
Mike and Ming, can you unveil
your creation?

496
00:18:55,971 --> 00:18:57,905
- Very nice.
- We went simple, tom.

497
00:18:57,939 --> 00:19:02,209
Fried chicken with bacon,
extra-sharp cheddar,

498
00:19:02,244 --> 00:19:04,345
- And apple jam.
- You got apple jam in there?

499
00:19:04,379 --> 00:19:05,646
I was a chef.

500
00:19:05,681 --> 00:19:08,382
You're playing in
my playground now, bitches.

501
00:19:08,417 --> 00:19:09,900
I didn't think ming was
allowed within 1,000 feet

502
00:19:09,951 --> 00:19:13,371
Of any playground.

503
00:19:20,445 --> 00:19:22,513
Want me to get a bucket?

504
00:19:22,564 --> 00:19:25,666
Two buckets?
One for each end?

505
00:19:28,670 --> 00:19:31,238
Okay, well, bryan,
it's time to unveil

506
00:19:31,273 --> 00:19:35,359
The masterpiece.

507
00:19:35,410 --> 00:19:39,113
Gaze upon perfection.

508
00:19:39,147 --> 00:19:41,849
- What's in there?
- What's not in there, Tom?

509
00:19:41,883 --> 00:19:43,484
The best of both worlds,
in terms of bread.

510
00:19:43,518 --> 00:19:44,852
We got portuguese
on one side,

511
00:19:44,886 --> 00:19:47,188
- Semolina on the other.
- Two breads.

512
00:19:47,222 --> 00:19:48,923
- You got your colby jack.
- Beautiful.

513
00:19:48,957 --> 00:19:52,593
- Two cheeses in one.
- Two cheeses. Two, count 'em.

514
00:19:52,627 --> 00:19:54,045
You got your fried chicken,
you got your grilled chicken.

515
00:19:54,079 --> 00:19:56,564
Two chickens.
Double-fistin' chicken.

516
00:19:56,598 --> 00:19:58,382
You got ham,
and you got bacon,

517
00:19:58,417 --> 00:20:02,970
Roast beef,
and your greens...Lettuce.

518
00:20:04,706 --> 00:20:07,141
Get a good bite there, tom.

519
00:20:07,175 --> 00:20:08,943
Go in for two.
There's two of everything.

520
00:20:08,977 --> 00:20:10,010
You might as well take
two bites.

521
00:20:10,045 --> 00:20:12,029
Huh? Huh?

522
00:20:12,064 --> 00:20:13,547
- He's goin' in for one more!
- Yeah!

523
00:20:13,582 --> 00:20:15,616
Thank you, guys.

524
00:20:15,650 --> 00:20:18,452
I think I've come
to a decision

525
00:20:18,487 --> 00:20:20,388
As to which sandwich
is gonna be

526
00:20:20,422 --> 00:20:24,358
The Secret Stash Superhero.

527
00:20:24,393 --> 00:20:27,161
And the winner is...

528
00:20:27,195 --> 00:20:28,162
Mike and Ming.

529
00:20:28,196 --> 00:20:30,297
- Yeah! Yeah!
- Pbbbt!

530
00:20:32,267 --> 00:20:34,018
- You guys won.
- We won.

531
00:20:34,069 --> 00:20:35,519
That's gotta be
a huge day for you, Ming.

532
00:20:35,554 --> 00:20:37,371
I imagine you called
your parents.

533
00:20:38,407 --> 00:20:39,440
"Hey, it finally happened!

534
00:20:39,474 --> 00:20:41,477
The bad boys got theirs!"

535
00:20:44,479 --> 00:20:47,379
Just like every good
comic book mainly series,

536
00:20:47,380 --> 00:20:49,110
this is coming to an end.

537
00:20:49,111 --> 00:20:51,197
Till then, I'm you host,
Kevin Smith.

538
00:20:51,198 --> 00:20:52,698
- Bryan Johnson.
- Walt Flanagan.

539
00:20:52,699 --> 00:20:54,336
- Mike Zapcic.
- Ming Chen.

540
00:20:54,337 --> 00:20:56,700
We gotta jam
like she's a aim, kids.

541
00:20:56,701 --> 00:20:57,701
So good night.
