Hi Matt, Please create a "Skybound X" set for just the five comics in the series (any correctly numbered comic 1-5 allowed into each slot). There is already a "Skybound X" set which includes the variants here: https://comics.www.collectors-society.com/registry/comics/SetTypeDetail.aspx?SetTypeID=5388. I suggest that its name is adjusted to "Skybound X (Complete with Variants)". At present, it is not showing in the Comics Set Manager under "S", and I suggest this is corrected/added. Regards Stephen Set Created Complete set renamed Sets reordered alphabetically on CS side 2/16/22

I have added a link to your "list" from my TWD #1 list as below. Might you reciprocate? Thx SA

As (most of) you know, I LOVE lists. Especially TWD lists. Great job @Sensei Ryanand @BladeTXfor putting this one together. I have a White and a Black label TWD #1, but not 9.9s. If I see any of the others, I'll be sure to let you know. Regards, Stephen (UK)

Hi @Crops068, @Sensei Ryanand @BladeTX. I saw y'awl hanging in CVL 209. Thanks @bigclutchfor hosting so well again - appreciated. I bought a #19 and the X set of 5. I keep reading the X Rick Grimes 2000 story, and keep coming back to my view that these are not a Walking Dead (Rick is a small-town cop who leads survivors in their apocalypse struggles) story. I love all things TWD, BUT X/2000 is a separate series, set in a different universe. In my opinion, they do not belong in the current TWD or TWDD Registry sets. Just like the forthcoming titles "Spider-Rick", "BatRick" and "Wonder (sex change) Rick". All separate sets... Have a great Sunday all :-) Stephen

One of several good reasons to just put Skybound X in a set of its own.

I love the Registry Awards. SO happy to have won six Best Set Awards. SO inspired to see too the collections and work of others. Well done to all the winners :-)

Having thought about it, I do NOT think I want to see Skybound X in the existing TWD Registry sets. They would be better brand homed in a new set. Sets should have a start and a finish, not go on "forever"... Do you agree @Sensei Ryan?

So you're REALLY out of TWDD, @BladeTX

I have the x14 #1s (all CGC 9.8 or 9.9). I have the 1-6 Adlard connecting covers. And a couple of others. But these are going to be popping out until maybe 2028. I'll not be going "all in" o this set - just ones I like. I believe I'll have the two #1 TWDD sets in this year's CGC awards :-)

Is this really new TWD material? Or more of a cameo? I have not bought (or even seen inside) the book. Is it worth getting one? I saw there were 9 covers (A-I) of number 1 and 6 (A-F) of number 2 just announced. Do we think it should feature in any of the TWD / TWDD Registry sets?

I was going to ask the same question; Which wait time applies to my submission: i) the wait time advised on the date of receipt of my submission by CGC, or ii) the wait time quoted on date the package was opened, or iii) the wait time shown today or on any future date". @Jennifer F. I have seen your answer to @Jeminon Friday, but I think all of us here would appreciate further clarity to your response. Just so we know what to expect. Specifically, is it i, ii, or iii (or something else)? Thank you in anticipation, Stephen

I really like the CGC Registry Awards. Low cost, high value. I know I value the awards I have won over the years. I knew the window was around this time, but like the others here, did not see any advertising about it this year. The deadline just sneaked by. Good luck to everybody in this year's award season. Best wishes Stephen

Great buy! Hit me up if you want to sell the Owner's Manual. Cheers Stephen

Anybody want a great deal on that iconic #19 cover? This is TWD Argentinian edition #10, and it has that cover. I just upgraded my copy of it to a 9.8, and so this is going spare. I have it listed on eBay for 35 GBP (50 USD), but happy to do a deal if someone here wants it (I am in the UK).

Castration definitely. After you've been married a while, you won't need those anyway, so you may as well resolve that misery without further delay...

We're flying into Houston, and driving to see family near Dallas, prior to a circular road trip back to Houston. Not sure of the routing yet, but I'll be in touch in good time. Be good to get dinner and/or a beer! Any love yet for Mr Shumacher or Mr Mazepin?

Thank you :-) I have one! Best wishes, Stephen

Hiya Tom. I'm really not looking - now or ever - to collect a full TWDD Registry set. I have a few, and these are mainly rarities and ones I like. My current objective is to complete the TWD 2003 with Variants set in 9.8 or SS, and I am slowly making progress towards that (I bought my final wanted 2013/5 Wizard World Edition in 9.8 just last week). First two F1 races have been great, doncha think? Max really has a shot at being Champion this time (but my prediction is that Lewis will edge it). Bring on Portimao... Stay well, Tom. Best wishes, SA PS My wife and I have flights to Texas booked for Jan 2022.

Can/t wait for 8/22 (8/23 in UK) - TWD s11, e01...

I watched season 10, episode 22 "Here's Negan" last night (we get it a day late in the UK due to the time difference). I think it was an AWESOME episode. I'm not going to spoil your first watch, except to say: 1. Look for Negan's surname... 2. Look for the Iron Maiden Easter egg... 3. A jukebox dispute is how all this started... Brilliant episode, actors Jeffrey and Hilarie, and writer David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick. Clearly one of the best episodes in the series.

Commenting upon "...today was the last time..." Suggest never say "never". Maybe you should just see it as taking a break. I loved comics as a kid. I know I had a SS #1 - long, long since binned. My break was a long one. I came back to comics when I started loving The Walking Dead. It doesn't matter what might trigger your return. But just something you love, eh?

I'm always happy to see Elmo :-)

I am attracted to @SeanYork's sentiments here. It is unfortunate to see that no/nil/nada/zilch requests to add a book to a set in the correct 2021 thread has been attended to so far this year - already a c. seven-week backlog. I have never understood CGC's (apparent) two-step process. It would seem logical to me that when a book is graded, and a unique number allocated to it, that book should be added right away to the current set/s it is eligible for. At some point in the future, someone will want to add it to a set. When I have a book graded, or buy a graded book, I really want to be able to add it straight away. I do not understand why - particularly if it is a newly issued book - I then have to request, and wait, for it to be added to a current set. This would cut OUR waiting, and your work, Matt. I believe the majority of your function could be reduced to creating sets for new series and new sets requested by CGC members. In writing, I would like to see a new, specific thread each year to request Registry adjustments (such as "remove this book" from sets). At present, I feel we have to guess where to put a request to you like this. Regards Stephen

I agree with Shawn @bigclutch. The TWD franchises could (and should) go on for a very long time. What we've seen may only be the start...
