I agree. There have been books questioned in every single contest since I joined the boards. Most complaining about grades is done with humor. I enjoy these contests win or lose (mostly lose).

Just getting to the reveal. Was doing pretty good out of the gate...first 3 books .2 off = 3 points...4th book the Transformers I went 9.0 = 2 points and then got nose-punched on the Supe 50 went 9.4 for 4 points = total 9 points. Ugh. At least I didn't go double digit points. Congrats to anyone with a 6 or less on this round.
Come to the Dark Side...

OK Cat. We haven't sold out the 150 seat allocation for a while now, so there'll likely still be room near the close. Hope you make it

I would just like to update everyone that I did receive a gigantic mystery box and I will be taking pictures of it very soon. I apologize for not doing so before now as life has continuously gotten in the way. It was a glorious box.
I gotta do that too. Got mine a week or so ago, from @stormflora just been busy. Hopefully this weekend I can get some posted.

This is insane - if I could afford it, I would buy it in a heartbeat:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/315119908107
Ended and sold for $1882.00. Not a bad price if those are 9.8 candidates (or higher).

And what may that look like? Some sort of internal piece that breaks if the entire slabbed is cracked open?
You could redesign the posts that snap the case together.
Something along this line that would snap off when the slab is opened.

Well, they caught the guy. He sold off most of the books, including the Mad #1. Not sure who or where he sold it to.
Turns out this guy had prior felonies (go figure) and a couple of warrants. They also busted him with a large amount of stolen sports trading cards and a bunch of high end purses.
He may be facing several years, so, that's a good thing.

I think you have two major contenders here if you go outside of the core, mainstream DC titles. Batman Adventures 12 and Batman: Killing Joke.
The GCD also lists some info at the following link:
https://www.comics.org/issue/43808/I'm convinced that this book has other slight variations (newsstands, stickered copies, promos, etc) that just aren't documented. Also, this is a comic that will continue to get printed
GCD is off on some of their info on The Killing Joke. Notably the cover prices on the different editions.
Here are the correct prices

You would think if this was somewhat a common occurence, that there would be more examples of this occuring in comics. Even double covers happens/happened every once in awhile. By the way, do double covers on comics even happen anymore? Are there examples of double covers on comics from let's say the past 5 years?
I have one form 2015

Looks like a piece of paper got into the presses when that page was printed.

This is my book and as far as I know, it's the only one ever found. I bought it off eBay from a guy in Canada thinking it was a BOMC edition.
Actually, those pictures are of my book. I found one as well. Mine came from an E-Bay seller in Burbank, Ca.
We now know of 4 copies of this book. Yours, mine, and @TJ Radford who has 2 copies.
