  1. Glad to see the update, know that CGC understands the error they made and will be following proper grading procedure and assign these type of books the Qualified label. I don't want to travel down the road of how such high numerical grades were achieved, I trust the GLOD will do the job of setting evaluations where they should be regardless of grade assigned.
  2. Somewhat surprised there has been no capitulation on CGC's part, grading standards are clear on this, marry up a cover, get the Qualified green label. Ask Danny Dupcak....
  3. What a ridiculous stance to take with the only outcome damaged credibility. This isn't difficult, something was physically attached after manufacturing, it doesn't matter who added it, artist, writer, whoever, the correct grade status is green label.
  4. Yeah, this is not about the variant any longer it's about the blue label.
  5. Guess it's time to resub all those Atlas Eastern Color warehouse copies for Blue labels...right?
  6. I've supported over a dozen of the independent creator owned projects the last couple years on Indiegogo. Groken by Rocafort, Cyberfrog by EVS, Starlight Cats by Shane Davis, Graham Nolan's Alien Alamo, looking forward to Lopresti's Wrath of God and Art Thibert's next volume of Black & White. The focus is always great stories and great art and Isom looks to be a continuation of that and I'm looking forward to it.
  7. I'm probably going to be in the minority here with my assessment but the movie never met my expectations. I'm not saying it wasn't enjoyable or unwatchable, however: Hulk/Banner was a fail for me and completely distracting throughout the whole movie. I really wanted the Hulk Thanos rematch and this time I wanted to see the Hulk slip into the rage that would deliver us the "strongest one" phrase and have him inflict some serious physical damage. The Thor comedy. Unwatchable. Thor had just finally reached a "maturity" in Raganarok and powered up and made an impact in Infinity War and then he steps off the set of the Big Lebowski and onto Endgame? No. What a waste. Enjoyed Scarlet Witch cutting loose and dominating Thanos, granted he didn't have the gauntlet. I'll blame this all on Starlin, he gave us such a great story in Infinity Gauntlet it was never going to be surpassed on the screen.
  8. I don't fault Marnin for his pricing in this catalog simply because JP had already paved the way with his 2002 Milennium Catalog. JP certainly struck gold a year earlier with prices realized. As you look through these circa 2000 catalogs, the most interesting thing is the lack of 9.6 material
  9. I don't use tape, I load my books into a Mylite/Fullback combo upside down and pull the flap closed and insert it into a Archive Mylar.
  10. I was really surprised by the turnout for this show, and the quality of the material inside did not disappoint! Look forward to attending in the future
  11. This looks like a great show, definitely make the trip up from the Cape for this one.
  12. I picked up one other the previous night , a lower grade Journey Into Mystery
  13. Picked up this one, happy to add it to my pedigree run of Thor's. After watching that #165 nearly hit $4k, very thankful I picked up my 9.4 Suscha News copy a few years back. If that book is knocking on the $4k door now, what's the ceiling when Warlock actually appears on the big screen?
  14. I'm somewhat confused as to why CGC has not removed them as an "Authorized CGC Dealer" and severed the relationship.
