Damn, RIP. 

Well Footloose is the greatest movie ever made! This one should be fun. 

That does answer a few questions. 

Depending on the back, yours has some great color but the spine breaks, corner folds, etc. leans me towards the grade mine came back earlier this year. 5.0.

My McFarlane's are still in the same situation. Marked as received but hasn't hit the tracker yet. Should be soon. 

Agree with this. I feel 100% confident when I submit sig series books or purchase sig series books. CBCS, there's always a bit of doubt in the back of my mind. I do like CBCS as an option for books that I had signed back in the days before CGC and will get around to it one of these days.

No, I'll go in hopeful, I almost always do. Hopefully I'm proven wrong. 

As for Conan, yeah... that'll be tough one.

Judging by our avatars, I think we both have a liking of the Sub-Mariner. It's been a bit of a roller coaster for me on this and I'm at the point where I'll withhold opinions until I see the movie. I do hope he's the anti-hero as in the comics but also realistically my Sub-Mariner reading/knowledge as with most Marvel Comics, ended in the late 80's when I stopped collecting seriously so there's 30+ years of changes, adjustments, retcons, etc. I'm unaware of and need to try to keep an open mind. 

Forgot about the longish running time. Will plan for viewing in the 21+ full bar/food menu theater in the coming weeks. 

Probably Namor like in the comics, but after a bit of playing the bad guy. 

I did the same thing for McFarlane, an already graded Hulk and some raw spider-mans in the same order and have done it plenty of times. For order in the box, I have first on the invoice correspond to top of the "pile" and have never had an issue with that. Good luck!

Another thing to note is availability of Grader Notes. I am now seeing more come back with my submissions but previously would be hit or miss on if they were included. 

Congrats!

Very nice!

That was my understanding also. 

That's going to look pretty darn awesome in 3D. 

Hopefully they can get casting squared away and on to filming. Whomever they choose will cause debate.

He was at a Con I was at end of September, and he was charging $30 to sign a witnessed book. So, my guess is he will be around that price for the con you are at also. So, if you add that to the price of grading for CGC, and compare it to the price for his in house signing price that should help. Thing to keep in mind is that the CGC in house signings pretty much include fast track grading with it. In my previous experience, the in house signings are typically better price wise then a con, once you add up all the charges you will eventually pay, unless you are able to get multiple signatures at the same con, that you couldn't also get in the same signing at CGC. Hopefully that makes sense and helps you out some. 

This is usually how I look at it also. Not sure how it's done now but a few years back at the Emerald City Comic Con, I had a few witnessed by CGC, had to go to the CGC booth, get a witness to come with me and witness the sig, go back to the booth and then finish the paperwork. I was able to get it back at the end of the con so that was a quick plus but no pressing, etc. option. This was pre-COVID so have been taking advantage of the in house signings with pressing and quick turnarounds. If there's no official CGC representation at the convention you're at, I see third party witnessing options and they will submit to CGC on your behalf but think that's at regular turn around times. Couple of options out there. 

Post more pics for the grade and then check out last couple on Ebay, etc. for both Blue and Green. I think this is one that will always be in demand no matter the grade and if the intent is to sell, when Deadpool 3 comes out, there will be a lot of renewed interest.

All I can say is it may eventually affect tiers of service, cost wise, with CGC grading, but idk if it'll go any further into the market as a bearing of ages.

Got the book yesterday and started flipping thru it. Did anyone else see how it defines/redefines the Bronze/Copper and Modern Ages? Bronze/Copper is now 1970 to 1999 and Modern is 2000 to present day based on how comic book pages were produced: primarily newsprint in the Bronze/Copper Age and calendarized paper in the Modern Age.

It makes sense that a comic book grading company would use these definitions but have never seen this referenced on the boards before. Thoughts?

I better get some "Moderns" submitted before the date is bumped to 2000. 

Nice!

Golden Age greatness there!

That has a "direct to video" feel to it. 

Thanks for doing this. 

Saw this, thank you!

Kind of two in a row here. Watched the first few episodes of Moon Knight and She-Hulk and then stopped. Finished Moon Knight eventually and will do the same with She-Hulk eventually...
