Or...this is the end...

The main reason I go to Wizard World is because of CGC. If they weren't there I wouldn't bother going. I collect comic books not pictures of movie stars, although I must admit the thought of Karen Gillian is very appealing to me. Last week I took a day to go to the New York Special Edition. I found some books I was looking for and happily brought them home with me.

I could have turned them over there, but then I'd have to wait a few months, especially since they are older. You know, as in my age. I was able to enter the floor early. In fact, I am happy to say I had a floor badge so I had all my books turned over before the floor opened on Thursday. My only signature series books I did were for Bagofleas and Greg Horn signed them for me as he was setting up his booth. I love his work and he is a great guy.

I checked the CGC booth once, but I was busy working a booth. Both Thursday and Friday had me working for Neal Adams, which is, let's face it, pretty "fr...in" awesome! I have had an issue with Neal saying something to me when I asked for some signatures during this past NYCC, and I didn't like it. But after working for him for two days and watching him interact I understand, he is a business man after all.

As I was over helping Neal, I watched as the witnesses stopped on by. In between those times I was told my books were ready. At 6:30 I picked up my three moderns and two for my lil bro. For his books I will allow him to tell it. As for my three modern books, my Alex Ross Amazing Spider-Man 1 and Hacktivist White cover were both graded a 9.8. My Sandman Overture Lenticular cover hit a 9.9, my second 9.9 submission, now all I have to do is wonder what CCS will do for my 181 before CGC grades it.

Thanks for Reading
