Any chance the SAG/AFTRA strike played any part in this? The timing is very coincidental.

Motley Crue, along with many other bands, have announced a “Farewell Tour”, which is a tour where the band says they will play live music for the last time. However, there have been many cases where the band ends up coming back and touring again. This is similar to the Avengers movie, where many of the characters die or say goodbye at the end of the movie, but then end up coming back for the sequels. I believe Professor X has died 4 times in the movies so far X-Men. (The Last Stand, X-Men: Dark Phoenix, Logan, Dr. Strange MoM) Can it happen for the 5th time? I guess we will just have to wait to find out.

Just saw it. It was fun, and yes, it had some silly scenes, but it didn't take itself too seriously. The Marvels does not have a very heavy, serious tone, and I kinda enjoy that right now. In my very personal rating system, it ranks above GOTG vol3 and below Thor: The Dark World. Solidly in the middle tier of all the MCU movies. The team fighting scenes were pretty good, and the plot was understandable (for a superhero movie). I was entertained and not bored during the movie. It is not my favorite MCU film, but I enjoyed it much more than...

CGC might pay more than what it is worth, just to get rid of it.

Looks like 4318799013 is the last in the series of submissions. I couldn't find another copy. My first instinct was that this was a joke, or forgery, but the certification number is valid, and the scans are legitimate. This one is definitely an outlier! If this seller has any honesty, they should ask CGC to regrade it free of charge. It's not like there is a 0.2 difference in grade between what is labeled and what condition the book is actually in. This is a significant difference in quality between this book and a 9.8. Passing this off as a 9.8 just because it says 9.8 is not cool. This can lead people to believe that this seller is not very honest.

I'm going to see it this weekend. I hope it provides some entertainment and makes me forget the daily stresses of my life. I'll also take my wife along in hopes that she enjoys the show also. I am expecting a "fun" movie with some action, humor, and maybe something I have not seen before. If I walk out saying "I shouldn't have spent money on the tickets", I might reconsider going to the next Marvel theatrical released movie. But until then, I just want to have a good time.

Does CGC always indicate "2nd printing" above the certification number? I am trying to decide if #3897096023 is a 1st print or 2nd print. Thank you!

Thanks! I see it clearly now. I am just a beginner at grading, so your explanation really helps.

Where is the color rub? My eyes are just not seeing it. Thanks!

One of my favorite covers. Great ending to the book.

Matt Smith is a good choice, as he can play the character believably for a number of years. I hope Mr. Fantastic's stretching ability does not look weird and cheesy again. If the writers create a good and believable story with a great villain they don't kill off in the end, I think the movie will make money and be a success.

I kinda liked it. Not as much as Loki or Hawkeye, but more than Ms. Marvel. At the end of the series, the actions of the President of the U.S. could provide a storyline for the X-Men. If that happens then the events in Secret Invasion could be very important.

Shiny new slabs are the best.

One of my reasons for slabbing is to literally protect the books. I want to preserve what I have for a long time. The thought of someone mistakenly damaging the books with no harm intended is a risk I do not want to take.
