Meeting Tony Moore for the 2nd time (Derby City Comic Con)

or "an awesome convo with the original artist of the worldwide phenomenon that is The Walking Dead." Well...I went to the Derby City Comic Con today after being away from the con scene for a little over a year (only been to 3 in the past 2 years so I'm not much of a con-goer as it is) and while the show itself was extremely lackluster the experience of getting to have a casual chat with Tony Moore made for an amazing afternoon. To spin this tale, let me begin with my review of the con. Blah

or How shocked I was to be one of the lucky recipients of a CGC Registry Set Award!!!Greetings fellow CGC collectors!

or who has the dish on Spidey's 2nd ish??? Okay...for my 2nd journal, I pose a question that I've wondered about for quite some time (this may be common comic knowledge but it has escaped me for whatever reason if it is). What issue is Spiderman's 2nd appearance? What about his 3rd appearance? His 4th? Here's the crux of the problem: On ASM 1 (the CGC registered copies, anyway) there is no indication of it being Spiderman's 2nd appearance. It only states that the origin of Spidey is

15 out of 16 came back 9.8 - Heck yeah!

or...a kid in a candy store! I'm excited Well - this is my first journal and my first attempt at getting 9.8's back from CGC with my own submissions. After being frustrated with looking and finding little books on eBay to add to my sets I found 16 books from my personal collection that I thought would have an awesome chance at getting the 9.8 grade. Well, I submitted them and 4 weeks later they arrive and low and behold 15 of the 16 came back as 9.8's!!! The one 9.6, after intense scrutiny,
