DELTA 62

Hmm... wonder why I didn't get grader's notes then on an 8.0 book that I got back 3 months ago.

Thanks brother! Ron was real easy to work with! Totally worth it if you get a chance!

Another one back from CGC. Sketch by Ron Wilson! At the time - his only He-Man vs Thing sketch ever!

Another sketch by Ben Bishop also signed by Kevin Eastman. Once again - no Eastman head sketch - opted for the "Cowabunga Dude!" quote instead!

i believe you got one of those Todd McElbowPress™!

I have noticed the slight shifting too in a couple slabs that I have received recently. On the plus side - no Newton Rings with the shifting. Nice book btw!

That is gorgeous! Congrats!

Another one that came back from CGC. By Kerry Gammill.

Wow! I would say you definitely got your money's worth! Especially with 2 characters. Very nice sketch!

Thanks! I was sure to put the quote and who wrote it on the form... and CGC put it on the label!

Arrived back from CGC. Signed & sketch by Ben Bishop. Also signed by Kevin Eastman. No remark by Eastman - he added B*tchin instead!

Congrats! And on a pretty nice looking cover!

That is pretty sweet!

Very nice!!!

This is an awesome book! Congrats!

Very nice! So... who do you think won that fight!?!

A recent addition... by Alex Kotkin.

Please anyone correct me on this if I am wrong - but I heard Todd does not do grading/witness signings at conventions. He will sign raw books at conventions - but not for grading. Again I may be wrong on this (maybe its a comic urban myth) but I have heard it more than once from different people.

Everyone was a noob at some point! If the slab was one of the older ones - then chances are it probably was not previously pressed. But that's just my guess. If the slab was one of the new ones - then its probably a flip of a coin if it was or was not already pressed. Since you bought it 2 years ago - chances are it might not have been - but without finding out from the original owner you will never know. You're question is really one to be answered by you - you asked if its worth $20 for a potential grade bump (you would hope it doesn't go down a grade but it can happen). You have to ask yourself what are you wanting from all of this? If you are satisfied with Todd's signature on a 9.4 (assuming it comes back the same grade) - then it's not worth your extra cash for the press. And you're a happy camper with Todd's signature on an awesome key book. But, if you want to take a $20 gamble on a possible grade bump - then it's totally worth it. Maybe the better question for you is - are you going to regret not getting it pressed? Because if you will feel that way later - it will definitely cost you more than $20 to send it back in to get pressed & regraded again. And a color break is a color break and will always be a color break - regardless of how hard it may be to see to you. CGC will find it and grade appropriately. Only restoration will help "fix" that for you.

We were all noobs at one point!

Batman + Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles = Awesome!

Recently had this re-slabbed with the limited edition NYCC Spider-Man label...

Star Wars: Age of Republic - General Grievous #1 signed by Matthew Wood (voice of General Grievous) "Jedi Scum!!" This is the ONLY book on the census at this time!

Star Wars: Age of Republic - General Grievous #1 signed by Matthew Wood (voice of General Grievous) "Jedi Scum!!"

I feel ya - no arguments here.
