  1. I don't see the Crossover service listed on the CGC site but have a CBCS graded comic I am considering submitting for the service.

    Question - I don't normally buy any graded comics other than CGC and I notice with this CBCS slab that when I gently tilt it from left to right the comic slides back and forth, from side to side, inside the case. Seems like a recipe for disaster to me and I am seriously considering cracking the case open myself before submitting the comic just to protect it during transit. Are all their graded comics like this? (shrug)

    Huh. Not even close from the structure of the face and the cheeks. Mark Addy's cheeks are not as broad, and actually rather flattened to his face.

    You see zero similarity? Not even taking into account the seven years between photos and makeup/lighting? I hope if I'm ever in a police lineup you're the guy trying to identify me...   :ph34r:

     

  3. Not new to my collection, more like rediscovered (when going through an old box this weekend).

    When I was a kid in the 70s the soft drink 7-Up had a Superman sweepstakes contest with all of the special cans having a Superman scene on the bottom. At some point I became sick of saving all the cans and cut off the bottoms instead!
