Well, I guess rasum frasum is unfiltered. Warner Bros. would be pleased. Or was it Hanna-Barbara? Rasum frasum frickity frack. "Rassin-frassin - from Hanna-Barbera's Jetsons & Flintstones a derogatory adjective of some kind. Possible corruption of the German curse "Ratten-Fressen" or "Rat Eating/Eater." Also uttered by Yosemite Sam in Warner Bros cartoons."I guess we could call one other "Rat Eater" so as to not offend those with German lineage.

After I read your post a moment ago, I developed a deep resentment towards Yosemite Sam and his insensitive use of the curse. Decades of fond memories of [identical]Saturday mornings teetered on the edge of the abyss when I realized I don't like a single person I know who eats rats So I'm good

I can see people pulling the centerfold from the 181 to marry with their copy of 181 that's missing a centerfold. Funny you should say that...some JOKER is selling the centerfolds as "replacements" for Batman #181 at $13.98 each!!

The seller graded the centerfold as 9.4? Is it because of the Pin-up that the centerfold gets taken out so often? I never noticed this being something that occurs more than in other books, but I guess being the centerfold and not a random page makes a big difference. In my experience this is true. Seems to me that Batman #181 and Daredevil #7 are extra likely to be incomplete.

You can still buy Batman #181 Facsimile for under $4 pretty much anywhere, so not sure why someone would take the centerfold out and sell it separately for $13.98!! Makes no sense.

Just some guy trying his luck. I used to work with a guy who claimed you could sell anything on eBay, as long as it was cheap enough. To put it to the test he went through his drawers and pulled out "some random bit of tat" (as he put it) and sold it for 5p + P&P.

I haven't been to a comic shop in over a year. Are the facsimiles on the same type of paper as the original comic or is it printed on the shiny pages?

I'd be wondering why the seller is removing pages from what is (maybe) implied as a 9.4 comic rather than just selling the comic whole(even if incomplete)? The pics show the staples.
