Never knew about those, thanks. Unfortunately none of the dropdown links in that Navigation group work for me. The galleries and calendar links work but the dropdowns are dead to my iPhone.☠️

Nothing is exactly the same, but still ...just lazy.

Looney Tunes 16 clocking in from 1943 as my new most oldest book. The 1st Pussycats will need an upgrade someday for sure. And I can't find Blue Ribbon 3 or Adv of Mighty Mouse 6 on the census at all so that's fun. As for the Australian Duck reprint, tell me flat backgrounds don't just hit better on newspaper stock?

Got this vintage French rust, I think it might have a bit of comic book tho. 🤔 C'est juste Schtroumpfy!

Drac bit off a little more than he could chew with Surfer, & took some of the book too.

Yeah but how much for the gem 1/1 Variant, where you and a friend get to personally take part in the burning of the other 999 books? There is no bottom I guess.

Just grabbed this at a local because what else is an electrical engineer who just moved to Jersey supposed to do. Don't see it in the GCD. They have other pamphlets like this listed by this publisher tho, wonder if it's because they messed up the publisher name in the indicia.

Tried to buy a book from France that shows up on eBay search & in seller's shop. Seller says item was already sold and eBay duplicated the item and refunded me. Is this a legit error?

Yeah, this is how I made my way here. I often see these boards as a top search result when I Google. Maybe I'm just too not-connected.

Everyone makes mistakes.

I would love it. I think any series focused on them would have to exclude mortals pretty much entirely. Maybe a mini involving all the entities when they were "young". Story line might be a power struggle during the first seconds of the universe's existence. Game of Thrones style. Their "powers" are new, they are inexperienced, their reality is in flux, & next to each other their powers are maybe not all so OP. Would leave room for growth and exploration of characters and the development of the laws of nature in our universe.

What a profoundly ignorant statement of certainty. Or are we to believe that "CGC is at war with acetate. CGC has always been at war with acetate"?

Wondering how confident the AC#1, FF#1, AmFan#15, etc owners feel with their big-money CGC grades. Did that "4.0" get an under the table bump from 3.5 or lower? What about that next key they're looking at, think they still want that CGC stamp as much? Trust it nearly as much? I sure wouldn't know. But there's lots of people here on this site who do. If 10.0s are up for grabs, and no fool now thinks they aren't, what other grades can be trusted?

'You just bought the most acetate I've ever seen anybody buy in my life'

The only thing they think they did wrong, and are willing to correct, is the spelling error. Just ...wow!!

This is absolute garbage. As an enthusiast newly retuning to the hobby, I will never, ever submit a book to CGC. I will never again purchase any book with your name attached to it. If I stay at this forum, it's only for the brain trust of forumites.

This plot line has gone on for 94 issues now and so far the main antagonist has only made a couple of brief, 4th-wall-breaking cameo appearances to mock us, the readers. This run is cray-cray!! Glad I picked issue #1 off the rack, think I'll add an acetate cover or two, maybe slap some glue on the spines for that square-bound feel, shrink wrap it, and sub through the Triple-Platinum(or 'Black Flag') Tier for that sweet, sweet 10.0.

"How dare eBay take my bootleg books down, CGC says they're A-OK 😭😭"

See something, say something. Or, something.

Can't wait to get my new Pop-up variant cover reprints graded. Wonder how they'll handle the error copy with the wrong herald, it's direct edition so very rare.

Oh my.

Bit of a twist on the classic Pump and Dump scam. Hype the umbrella with a hot product then short-sell it all to your inside-trading partners who Jack up the price after the closing bell. In other "markets" such "investors" and those who facilitate these manipulations go to prison. In this market the only regulators are us. The only way to stop it is to stop paying silly money for manufactured "value". No 32pg comic book should sell off-the-rack for $75. Period. Frankly tho, LCSs have been doing something like this for forever, they sell all their copies of ASM-361 to speculators and favored regulars before they even put any out on the shelf. Plebs like me go home with a bunch of keys missing from our runs, that 3 months later are way out of our price range(but I'm not bitter about it at all).

Some TV goodies this week. And beats me how I ever stumbled through my Electrical Engineering courses without 1940's comics by GE, but turns out that's a thing.
