If I can't afford Action Comics #1, isn't this the next best thing?

I look, once my invoice is marked shipped/safe, I look. I can't seem to help it. Recently Surfer 99 had one of his invoices marked shipped/safe. I told him to look. I demanded he do so, I begged, pleaded, and beseeched. He did not. He likes the toy surprise inside the Cracker Jack Box. My ill' bro Bagofleas had an invoice also marked shipped/safe. He said he refused to look. I twisted his arm. He looked.

I have an invoice currently marked graded. By the 22 of August it should be marked shipped/safe (it wasn't) if CGC is true to their turnaround times. But, will I look? This book is a Marvel Graphic Novel #4. I had Bob McLeod doodle on the back. Bagofleas gave me the idea. I thought it looked great and happily paid Bob what he asked for. However, I noticed that he left his fingerprints behind. As a grade conscious collector, I was devastated and as a fan, I was overjoyed.

I am hoping that after going through CCS for their non restorative techniques, the book will retain the 9.8 it started out with. If it doesn't, I will most likely sell it, but if it does I will be overjoyed thanking the grading gods above. The question that remains to be asked, will this one invoice be the invoice I don't look at, or will it be like all the others and have me shouting with joy, or upset with disappointment before the UPS man ever gets to my door.

Thanks for Reading
