    To be honest, I have the most fun planning out prizes to donate. I would love to be better at grading...and that may come over time. I will have fun with this either way. Thank you Andy and Shin for all of your work!!

    No choice, but to do this off my phone 1st round.

    Grades in. I'm not sure I have gotten all that better from last year. I did want to make sure that my prizes were much better this year though.

    Prize #2 . Sketch Art Cover of Venom by Frank A. Kadar (Value $300- This is what I am donating for the new commission). I will pay for the cost of the sketch cover and shipping to CONUS. If you wish the cover graded by CGC, that cost is yours. Steve Hiatt is great with coordinating Frank's amazing covers. Images are now posted. I can delete previous images if I am taking up too much space. I just love watching the progress of a sketch art cover though.

    This is one of my few Non-CGC signatures. I hope you will still permit it. 35 years ago, Berkeley Breathed (artist and writer of Opus and Bloom County) came to my college (Univ. of Rochester) and gave an amazing presentation to a full auditorium. Afterward, he stayed and gave sketches to whomever wanted them. The line was impressive. He did a lot of Milo and Opus profiles (which were quicker). When it was my turn, I stepped up and asked for a Milo (front view). Berke looked up at me, shook his head a bit and said "You are particular, aren't you?" I just nodded yes, not fully appreciating how much work and effort really goes into sketching for this large of a crowd. After all of these years, I still feel a bit guilty, but I love my Milo (front view).

    Ray Bradbury is a great one to have. If you ever get the chance, I would love to see that one.

    I have to thank Rich Henn for taking such good care of these. They are not high value books, but I am a big Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez WW fan and opening these was a treat!

    I have been putting a few things aside as potential prizes since last year. Has a prize thread been set up yet?

    I am also curious if some of these are even worth getting graded.

    I will try again this year.

    Things happen. They shouldn't happen often, but when they do it's nice to hear that everyone did the right thing. Cheers to honest people making good choices and others correcting mistakes.

    I have been looking to get a Frank Thorne signature on some of my Red Sonjas for some time. So when this copy became available, I was happy to add it to my collection. This is lone, highest graded copy on the CGC Census.
