Were y'all's submitted at New York Comic Con?

Those are the only books that have shipped, they were signed on 10/5.

Signing hasn't happened yet, so I'm m not sure why y'all are expecting movement, but maybe y'all's are the last of nycc to ship?

my books shipped to Sarasota on Sept20. Signed at NYCC I guess. Early Bird gets the worm (t-bagged)

It’s for sale at Anthony’s as Baker-art Colletta-inks.

It’s literally signed by Colletta.

I have to ask, I know what T-bagged means in another sense, what do you mean in the way of Todd McFarlane’s signature? I’ve never heard this phrase before. Thank you.

It’s a joke for writing T instead of Todd. 
first time I heard the phrase on YouTube by this fella which it’s hilarious  this youtuber gets the credit fot T-Bagged

Did your 9.4 have any notes attached to it before sending it to CGC? Did they discover something on the inside that caused the grade drop? I don't have a lot of high grade newer books, so I don't know where the cutoff is for CGC in providing notes at certain grade levels.

Obviously, each company has criteria that they look at or don't look at. The absence of a tanning notation makes me wonder if the competitor disregards that as a detriment to the grade. I don't know (and will never know) if they consider this an appearance issue, and not a paper deterioration issue? (tanning is the deterioration of the paper - not sure why they would not consider it - but who knows.)

From a variety of examples I've seen, CGC does not take cover fading into account (at least in graders notes) - which could be justified since it's not technically a direct deterioration of the paper or the structure of the book, and only creates less of an appealing appearance, which (I'm guessing) does not have an effect on the grading of the book.

It’s been years, the only thing I can remember CGC notes were finger marks on spine which were not noted on competitors notes. Had it CPR returned 9.0 

I had a competitor’s 9.4 cross grading return CGC 8.5  

Sweet, I was fortunate to meet Gene Colan few times. 

Conan 1 VF or better on my radar.

I believe so. My books shipped to CGC on Sept. I Don feel like sending my books back again for the fix custom label. It’s just a label.

Yes all five. My books shipped on Sept. early entry still got TBagged.

I've tried my best to purge from my memory all Bakers I've sold for stupid low prices.

I feel you. I purchased Baker dirt cheap sell for profit. Later it’s jumps even more in value now looks like I sold dirt cheap. When will the cycle end
