ADAMANTIUM

Perfect for scrapbooking though

Ya from 1987 to 1990 X-men, I guess that time period I thought was short hair No worries edit to say third choice would be art adams but I knew that couldn't be it

I'd have guessed Marc Silvestri on that one. My gut said Jim Lee, but then it was a little too slender, but now makes sense with the image time period, pun intended. I thought silvistri when I doubted, but idk that Rogue was in too much silvestri art, I could be wrong. More new mutants and elektra? Probably at least did a couple of Rogue but idk

I forget which version had red hair, but I think it is, or another

It's Rogue, not sure the artist as it is just from my scrapbooking days as a kid in the late 80s early 90s.

Hooooold ooon tight to your dreams!

How long did it take them to open the shipment of moderns to sfg? Or is that what received meant?

Just an FYI I double checked I was signed up for the newsletter, but other options have been selected a long time now, and I still don't ever receive emails from the comics nor cards news....and offers I had pm'd about it, or tried to resave the settings several times to no avail, so idk.

Speaking of which https://www.cgccomics.com/news/article/12857/fcbd-free-comic-book-day/ Thanks for the shout out in the news letter for fcbd!! Nice to see it all in print! I thought it might have been a social media post as well but I didn't see it! Got to collect them all! 😂 😆

Yes, everything is going to cost $100-300 or whatever. I did get $21 tickets in 2022 for one of the games judge was stuck at 61, but they were nosebleeds and I am pretty sure we spent $30-40 per person for the 6 of us (4 kids) on food/drinks too (which is pretty easy with $16 beers). From a collector's standpoint the money spent on any one of these things can be spent on some really nice book that isn't gone in an hour, so there's that. Comics, especially if you are selective and not hoovering 3 million dollar books, at least don't take up a ton of space, which I guess is why the whole hobby went toward keys, semi-keys and super HG slabs, rather than folks collecting runs like they used to. If we're following up, I too did some concerts and or stand up, it all cost about the same at around $250 for two people, but that might just be the seats I could afford I saw Adam Sandler a year ago February in rafters, "Fluffy" or Gabriel Iglesias floor seats this March, and Green Day behind the foul ball net but close.to the stage this September!

The clock on the official TAT starts when the box is opened and the books enter SFG. Most times of the year boxes are opened quickly so this difference in counting time is negligible, but when Con season hits there is often a slowdown for opening boxes. One of the things that is really useful about this particular thread is people sometimes include when the books arrived at CGC. Looking back through a few pages you can sometimes see how long it is taking for boxes to be opened. The waiting for grading is mostly irrelevant to me outside of getting super curious about how the books did, but if it really bothers you then it is better to submit in the winter and away from when large comic conventions are scheduled. Best of luck with the grades! All good words of advice and encouragement on timing. I sent in a submission today, and due to when cgc will inevitably charge me I called to ask how long for boxes being opened. I'll try to update upon arrival. Also they have a package tool for the USPS tracking or other, on the my submissions page. So even if they haven't opened to sfg, you can at least track that the package arrived and was scanned in. I hope this helps, also depending on if you're new new, CGC gives instructions for uv to write that on the box for priority opening. All good things to mention. I think the last post about the time of the year might help more, but depending on how funds are, maybe this post will help alleviate as well ❤️‍🩹 😉

Speaking of which, how do you get the newsstand notation that aren't editions but just newsstand in name only? I filled out a Batman submission form today #563 & 570, which I typed in newsstand but the choice didn't come up. It's a near 2000 age newsstand and we'll after this asm #316?

Christmas, I love it!

Happy BIRTHDAY 🎈 🎂 🎈 🎈 🎂
