  1. This just got back from an extended stay in Sarasota...during which time it started heating up apparently...
  2. As you may already know, this copy sold on eBay on 6/3/19 for $566 after 20 bids. Even as someone chasing a specific Moore SS book, I feel like more than $1k even to a V fan is a lot to ask. That being said, if they try their hand at a limited series or a new movie...well...then there will be renewed speculation and it could easily achieve that.
  3. Don't forget Star Wars High Republic Adventures #1 coming out from Disney and IDW, as well. May be under ordered since everyone is chasing the Marvel book...
  4. Only two big comic book (and a house) purchased this year. Star Wars #1 signed by Pappa G Atom Tan #1
  5. I don't see it happening either...BUT...think of the untapped potential for registry points (and record eBay prices for treasury editions if they did). And the byproduct? A new revenue stream for CGC. I'm sure a cost analysis has been performed internally and currently it isn't financially viable.
  6. excuse the photo / lack of size comparison This is a 'Life Magazine' top loader, MyLite 4, and backing board with a sheet of archive paper behind the front & back covers. Unfortunately, once received by CGC they explained that it was just outside the limitations of a magazine submission. They did press and clean it for me though...
  7. British. Essentially 'first' Tank Girl, but it is a one-pager / rough design. Reportedly approximately 200 or so copies of this fanzine were created / printed / distributed whilst friends Jamie Hewlett, Alan Martin and Philip Bond were attending art school in 1987.
  8. Atom Tan #1 Wish CGC slabbed books this size so I could return to the Tank Girl registry with a vengeance.
  9. Yeah, not from the wild, purchased directly from Matthew Allison many, many years ago. Just rediscovered it in a box. (thought I had sold it) You are correct, the back cover has a tear...presumably from the thick paper / printing process. First published appearance of Cankor by creator Matthew Allison released in 2011. Yes, he is still producing stories in the Cankor universe. A new graphic novel was released by AdHouse in June. Unfortunately, each of the self-published series (including this one) are out of print at the moment. Thus driving the prices higher.
  10. Shipment delivered by USPS on 11/9. Still has not reached CGC Submission Tracking yet (5 business days including today)... What is everyone's recent experience with this stage?
  11. My favorite so far. I foresee this one crossing over to appeal to non-comic fans. (not them buying the comic...although its on the up swing...just reposting / sharing the image...) Blackwood #3 Variant
  12. This is the Obama as Joker cover, right? (to me its all in the chin / jaw and ears...) /s
  13. Very cool video. Beginning at the end of 2018 I set out to limit my personal collection to Top 50. Sometimes books (when shaken from other collector's collections become available) sneak in and push other books out. Don't have the capability to record, but I always keep them posted on myslabbedcomics. Click here if interested... https://www.myslabbedcomics.com/GalleryDetailSearch.asp?GCat=450&Order=Views
  14. I don't have an idea on how to improve this, but I foresee "issues" (pun intended) if a book is priced low, a movie / show announcement occurs, and someone snaps it up. But then the seller says they have already sold in order to avoiding selling low when they could relist it at a higher price at a convention. Without a feedback system how would one know not to do business with the shady seller again? As the intermediary (and presumably financially benefiting) for the transaction you and your LLC / INC / etc should "make it right" with any instance of an item not being available if a buyer clicks to buy it.
  15. I've decided on 50 for my personal collection. How I came to that was simply based on my father passing in October 2018 and having to handle the moving / removal / donating / selling of not only the things he collected but the things my grandparents collected too. I decided then and there that I had to pare down and prepare my collection for my eventual passing. So over 2019 I donated / sold half of my total collection with the end goal being at 10% sold each year going forward.
  16. Please add the following - Set: Tank Girl Book: A1 #6 (1992) Certification #: 2084227005 Slot Added. Thank you
  17. This year was marked by my focus to define what my Top 50 comics are, sell those that did not fall into that category, utilize the funds to purchase various 'keys', redetermine Top 50, rinse & repeat. As such, I picked up a handful of 'keys' throughout the year. When reviewing this year's haul it was difficult determining which acquisition meant the most to me in 2019. Whilst these aren't the most expensive (one was free) looking back these are the ones I am happiest about right now. 1. Deadline #1 CGC 8.0 2. Captain America: Civil War Prelude #3 CGC 9.8 signed by Chris Evans, Anthony Russo, and Joe Russo 3. CGC Award for Best Presented Modern Set for my Tank Girl registry set 'Girl U Want'
  18. Thank you for renaming the Tank Girl registry. Unfortunately, I can't find the newly created Tank Girl (Dark Horse) series 1 and 2 registries. What is the timeline for them to be added to the system? Thank you again. Hello, I am seeing them both listed under the "T" section now. Please let me know if you are still having issues. Thank you
  19. Hi there, Would it be possible to create the following sets? Tank Girl: Dark Horse Comics Series To contain the following: Tank Girl #1 (5/91) Tank Girl #2 (6/91) Tank Girl #3 (7/91) Tank Girl #4 (8/91) Tank Girl 2 #1 (6/93) Tank Girl 2 #2 (7/93) Tank Girl 2 #3 (8/93) Tank Girl 2 #4 (9/93) These sets were created individually as they are different series. Tank Girl: 21st Century Tank Girl To contain the following: Tank Girl: 21st Century Tank Girl #1 (7/15) Tank Girl: 21st Century Tank Girl #2 (8/15) Tank Girl: 21st Century Tank Girl #3 (9/15) 21st Century Tank Girl Sampler nn (2014) Additionally, once these sets are created can the current "Tank Girl" registry please be renamed "Tank Girl (Complete)" or "Tank Girl (Complete with Variants)". If this is not the correct thread to place this particular request, please direct me where to. Tank Girl (Complete) has been updated and can be added to as needed. (As TG primarily consists of various limited series I am seeking to organize them all to emulate the way the various 'Star Wars' registry sets are organized...by series...) Thank you in advance.
  20. I would like to have two scores looked at - Tank Girl #1 9.8 recently sold for $760 https://www.ebay.com/itm/Tank-Girl-1-CGC-9-8-White-Pages-1st-US-appearance-of-Tank-Girl-KEY-ISSUE-L-K/223721031670?hash=item3416d007f6:g:8aIAAOSwovFds3C7 Deadline #1 6.5 recently sold for approximately $700 https://www.ebay.com/itm/DEADLINE-1-CGC-6-5-1ST-FULL-APP-TANK-GIRL-BRIAN-BOLLAND-DAVE-ALLEN-INTERVIEWS/113838414866?hash=item1a814c5c12:g:ymUAAOSwkGldQg6S Thank you in advance. Scores updated. Thank you for your patience.
  21. BAM! Comics in North Miami circa late elementary (grade) thru middle school. Originally across a side street from our local Publix. Mom went grocery shopping, I went comic shopping. Only rule was I had to be back in time to help bag the groceries. Most formative memories of that place - They had a lots of Tank Girl stuff and it helped shaped my reading experience on what older comic fans read. (They were actually kind of jerks to customers / fans...they once called me out for buying Liefeld's run on New Mutants comics when they came out)
