    For the eGerber Mylars I just use normal 3M Magic scotch or duck brand translucent tape.  The really clear kind tend to leave a residue on the mylar if you're pealing and resealing the tape or often become so bonded to the mylar that it tears the tape.  I also hate the very opaque tape for the same reasons. Though I haven't tried the 3M Removable tape (light blue packaging vs green) but might give that a try.  I also use the fold-over tab method with the magic scotch or duck tape.  This is where you fold one end of the piece of tape about 1/4" onto itself such that you fold 1/4" of the sticky side onto the same sticky side.  This leaves a tab that is not sticky facing the same direction as the sticky side that allows you to easily unseal the tape when attached to the mylar.  I usually affix the tape to the folded mylar tab with the non-sticky end of the tape on top with only a 1/4" of the sticky side on the mylar tab and the rest (1/2") on the mylar back that the mylar tab is folded onto.  That was probably a terrible description of what I'm trying to explain but many boardies use this method when sealing their comics to prevent mishaps with tape such as tape pulls and making removing the tape so much easier. I'll look for a photo to post later to show what I mean.

    I prefer 3M scotch tape.  I've found the Duck scotch tape doesn't do the trick for me. It's too sticky and doesn't peel back cleanly.  I always end up tearing the tape then having to remove it just to apply another strip.  Also, I fold an end to give it a "tab" so that I don't snag a (raw) book with it.  The tape stays on the back of the bag and not on the flap.

  3. Hey Matt, last group of Marvel Team-Ups, I swear.  This one will cover 101-150 and then I'm done for at least another 4-5 years on the MTU's!

    Hello @Robert Doggett,

    I increased a few of the books  on 12/30/20. Please note that I am increasing these books by 3 points on average in a 9.0 which does not qualify for a score bumps in the future. Please only request books that require a significant score boost. Thank you
