  1. Hi, @southern cross, the Biotronic stickers have always been loose. They were never attached, just placed in the comic when it was published. From what I've read about encapsulation, something like this would be placed in the encapsulated comic as it would be able to fit within whereas something like the Space Spinner (that came free with Prog 1) can't be fitted in but I may be wrong.
  2. Hi, Looking for some opinions on whether I should look to get some issues of 2000ad graded and encapsulated with CGC. This would be a means to an end as my ultimate ambition would be to sell them once this is done. Given their (possible lack of?) quality (and in this case imperfect free gift) I wasn't sure if getting them slabbed would be worth the expense. I live in the UK. Prog 3 - Has yellowed pages and a tear on the back cover but still has the Red Alert wallet with it. This has been made up and has some writing on it (black felt tip men, what a wise pen choice I made at the time!). Would be chuffed if anyone was able to offer any advice please. Thanks very much. Regards

Prog 2 - Has yellowed pages but still has the Biotronic Stickers with it. Unfortunately one is missing (13 year old me stuck it on my forearm as instructed and when it lost it's stickiness I stuck it on my wardrobe door - that wardrobe and it's door is now long deceased!). The 'Third Eye' sticker has lost it's stickiness and is now loose from the backing sheet. Would be chuffed if anyone was able to offer any advice please. Thanks very much. Regards

  5. Thanks very much for responding and explaining @marvelmaniac, I’ll rectify this as soon as I can.
  6. Good morning @scburdet, I'm sorry, I'm new to this kind of thing. Can you find a minute or two to explain how I find the pinned thread and what PGM stands for please? Thanks very much. Regards
  7. Thanks very much for this @marvelmaniac, really appreciate you taking the time to comment.
  8. Hi, Looking for some opinions on whether I should look to get my first three issues of 2000ad graded and encapsulated with CGC.

I also have issues 4 and 5 and can upload those images if anyone thinks they're significant. Would be chuffed if anyone was able to offer any advice please. Thanks very much. Regards
