First time I found this thread. Green Lantern doesn't get nearly as much love on these boards as it/they/he should.
Recently decided to pick the first 100 Green Lantern V2, got one step closer today and picked up a FN copy of #18. I think I'm going to go back tomorrow and get something else. Oh boy.
I have a question for everyone in the thread. I'm visiting my girlfriend's family for the weekend and went to the local shop, they had a Showcase 22 there for sale. They had it graded at a 1.8 and sticker for $1000 but he said he would sell it for $600....but that's not really the point. I'm more curious about the grade. Someone had drawn in the Green Lantern letters, as well as the missile with blue ballpoint pen, and there was a spot missing right below Hal's face. Would this still qualify as a 1.8? I was pretty sidetracked with those problems to look past them, so I don't recall what quality it was in outside of that. Seemed pretty decent, but I don't know grading very well at all. Especially for lower grade stuff. Is this appropriate?
