  6. Listen, if it was produced and published by Marvel's MAGAZINE department, distributed through traditional MAGAZINE channels, and sold through MAGAZINE shops and retailers, then it's a MAGAZINE, no matter what's inside. That was the entire purpose of the Marvel Magazine line - to infiltrate traditional MAGAZINE distribution and retail channels to get the higher-end buyers and advertising. Uh, what about Man-Thing's 1st App in Savage Tales #1? 1st appearance, yes. 1st comic book appearance, no. That's not what the market thinks though. Admittedly, every story in Savage Tales #1 is a triumph in its own right, but it's still billed as the 1st app of Man-Thing (regardless of what you and Vince think) CGC differentiates between the 1st appearance and the 1st comic book appearance apparently. Look at the label of an IH 272 for an example. I would suspect an Adventure into Fear 10 could be labelled as the 1st comic book appearance for Man-Thing if someone asked. This isn't my opinion, but it does seem to be how CGC and several people think. Honestly, my opinion is it is a tactic to get more money from collectors. Look at Hellboy. There are 3 books a collector would need to track down to get all the 1st appearances. If you've been following this thread, I'm firmly in the other camp. Nothing personal but you "suspect" incorrectly, and no, CGC doesn't tailor its notes to the requestor. That is good to know. I always assumed this since I've seen so many different notes on CGC slabbed books for the same comic. I'll admit it, I'm pretty ignorant about the CGC labels. Why does Incredible Hulk 271 get the 1st comic book appearance of Rocket Raccoon note? And Marvel Preview 7 gets no mention of Rocket Raccoon? A mistake by CGC? Probably because Overstreet doesn't recognize it either(yet), I don't think CGC wants to be responsible for comic facts, and I don't blame them, They are not the authority of comic history
  7. Got a great book from a sensational seller, Buy with confidence, THANKS!!!!
