  1. What kind? Magic? Poker? Euchre? Peeknuckle?
  2. I would say that "Name written on cover" typically doesn't lower a comic's grade. However, if it imprints into the cover it probably will impact in high grade. I think that Qualified (green) labels for signatures with COA are fine CGC products. I personally have 0 interest in ever owning a PGX case. I don't respect their opinions on comics, and their products are just plain ugly. Voldemort (CBCS, typically not allowed to refer to them here for reasons unknown to me) cases and labels are okay, but, I have OCD and CGC is the gold standard in professional comic grading.
  3. High eighties? I'd rather KMS... I'm an autumn/spring fan, myself.
  4. I mean, I can detect when color touch goes wrong and an entire bottle of paint was spilled onto a cover, too.
  5. I would bet my entire collection that said person cannot detect absolute lack of restoration from across the room.
  6. When you say something as outlandish as you did, don't be surprised when the premise is reciprocated. You basically just called yourself ignorant. If a professional restoration detector doesn't use any and all tools available to them - then what are they even doing? That would be like me trying to communicate with a coworker without sending an email.
  7. Let's just say that I trust what the poster on the CBCS boards says more than I trust the restoration detector to actually detect all restoration with his eyes (from across the room or otherwise)...
  8. The guy that doesn't use a black light to assist in restoration detection...? To each their own - I guess.
  9. What's to say that that (the black mark) is what CGC is notating as color touch? There could be color touch elsewhere.
  10. Wait... Why would black marker not intended as restoration be indicated as "color touch"...?
  11. Isn't X-Man the genetic creation by Sinister - of Cyclops and Jean's genes - in an effort to defeat Apocalypse? That is my recollection, at least...
