Appreciated everyone

I don't so much want a grade as I want an indication that it won't be slapped with the .5 incomplete.

As a follow up, it's not automatic, but how likely is a .5? Trying to determine if I'm going to submit this. If it's a .5 I'll just keep it raw, but if goes up to even a 1.0 I'd probably slab it. A green label wouldn't bother me.

As the title says, curious about this. Opposite side of page is an ad page.

Pretty fun playing along from the sidelines.

Been playing along on my own. I feel like I should have gotten in on this.

Modern non fast track, Received on 2/7 SFG on 2/27 Grading/QC 3/3

On the fence about where this will fall in terms of grade. 1/2 spine split on the bottom corner.

Also me, same exact dates.

Thanks! Totally unexpected, I was really expecting somewhere in the 9.2 to 9.4 range myself. CCS did work.

Here it is!

Can't blame you on that - SS4 is on my want list. I had a lower end copy, but I ended up letting it go and regretted it almost instantly . I'm surprised Malibu Sun 13 doesn't get more love in general - especially with the Number 1 having such an absurd print number. Even if not a true first comic - it's still reasonably significant. I'm surprised people don't go after Malibu Sun 8 a bit harder too with Evil Ernie. This one was already sitting in my collection so it made the decision easy when the announcement was made.

Yep, I'll be doing a video - I'll drop a link here for those interested when I do. Just one book, CGC and Todd deciding to drop this during Christmas season made for a limited sub. Very curious how it'll turn out, it wasn't the highest of grades pre-press (maybe 8.0-8.5), but the flaws were basically all fixable by press. If CCS did a good press I think the sky is the limit on it.

Not going to lie, it's super hard not to check what my Malibu Sun 13 graded at. Trying to wait until it gets here.

Low grade is better than no grade.

"Beat to hell"

Also, Grader Notes are at the discretion of the grader - there's no guarantee on any grade they'll be there. Just more likely at lower. I actually own a CGC 1.5 without notes - pure discretion.

originally received 12/3 back from press 1/22 SGF 1/24 Shipped 1/28 on the grade

originally received 12/3 back from press 1/22 SGF 1/24 Moving along fairly quickly.

I know, I only submitted one book and that was the one. It's got the classic front cover and killer back cover with reasonable significance. There may just be fewer of them available to be signed too.

Received 12/3 updated to Received 1/22. Guessing that means the pressing has been finished. EDIT: I'm actually surprised how few Malibu Sun 13s are being added to the census with this signing. At least so far. 8 normal added and 7 error. Curious about those numbers in a month.

So my Standard Sub from 12/6 was still sitting at Received as of this morning. Gave CGC a call - first person who answered hung up on me 2 minutes into the call. 2nd Call to CGC was more successful. Sub moved to SFG as of today, 12/10.

Appreciate that update - whenever I try to get a hold of them I got stuck with waiting for a representative on the phone.

My Standard Tier Sub Has been sitting at received since 12/6 - growing a bit impatient with it.

After waiting on hold for several minutes with no response I decided to send them an email about it. Will update when I hear back. CGC must be busy today after the holidays.
