Wesley Johnson

I didn't. Went back and looked.

My name is Wesley. For nearly 13 years, I’ve been (semi-)happily employed in the two public libraries in Western Kentucky. I was an avid collector of Marvel in the 90s. That said, I did dip into DC, Image, and Valiant now-and-then. I attended my first comic convention – Wizard World Chicago – in the early 00s. A few more followed; however, due to the focus moving towards movies/tv more than comics, I stepped away from that scene. The inflating cost of gas and admission played into that as well. I stopped collecting comics for quite some time. It was the excellent graphic novel collection at my current library that inspired me to get back into it; however, I admit I read more from the library than buy. Though I still have a deep love for mainstream superhero books, indies catch my interest quite a bit. My father recently passed away. Prior to this event, my mother often told me I should grab my old long boxes to see if I had anything of value. I grabbed the two she referenced and began sorting through them and the one I have at my current abode. Within a few minutes, I’d pulled out a crisp copy of Ultimate Fallout #4. More treasure followed. This began my journey to becoming a CGC member.

Newbie here. I know in the list of new member benefits mentions a free shipping kit and credit. I'm unsure how to redeem these, though. Would appreciate a gentle nudge in the right direction. Thanks!

I recently started going through some old books and realized I had Ultimate Fallout 4. The book has been bagged & boarded most of its life; only been out maybe 3 times in the last ten years. A friend of mine who has gotten books graded before says in his estimation it's a 9.8. He's encouraging me to grade and keep it. I'd like a few more opinions. The only real flaw I see is that the U from "Ultimate" comes over to the back cover a bit. I snagged these images from a book scanner at the library I work for with the book. Pretty new to all this and would appreciate any advice. Thanks!
