  1. Deadpool because of the superior physical power. Have you ever read a Little Lotta comic? She'd eat Deadpool. End of story
  2. Aw, come on now. You might mislead a noob hanging on your every word for guidance. The charts are legit, as they essentially mirror the charts offered in a newsletter by milehighcomics and charts by rarecomics based on CBCS census data. Unless that info is also BS, here's a link with those charts (you'll need to scroll at least half the way down). https://rarecomics.wordpress.com/category/direct-edition-vs-newsstand-edition-comic-books/ All other articles on this issue say the same thing with their own charts, presumably based on the same population data. Responding to the bolded part. How do we know whether it is or is not? You repeat something enough times and enough people read it, it sometimes becomes "fact" regardless of whether it is or not. We need more critical examination of this data, not blind acceptance. Too many people just believe what they read.
  3. All I see are the giant fins on his head It was the era of excess. See McFarlane's ridiculous webbing on ASM
  4. Can't wait to see what "STOP! Part 3" will be.
  5. Yeah yeah it was me, I understood what you meant about the effort for tampering a low value book, but you know, I have never hold a CGC in my hand before today, so when I've seen that little crack I was worried XD I'm not picking on you but the truly disturbing thing is how so many people assume, in their inexperience, that something is wrong, that something is counterfeit, that someone is trying to pull the wool over their eyes, that someone cheated them, etc. I'm not sure where this level of panic and insecurity comes from.
  6. I'm with you. Always thought that cover was crap. What the hell is wolvie doing? Clanging his claws together to produce a laser beam? And what's the streak behind his head going off to the left? Walt's done much better than this.
  7. Didn’t realize you were a big deal.... I'm just glad he didn't destroy CGC
  8. Hey, back on topic. Not sure if this one is my most prized but I'm going to pick it for now
  9. No, there's nothing logical about that. There certainly is nothing logical about this market
  10. I agree it's high level, as is the binary decision to factor age or not. Other graders simply do not and it is becoming clear that CGC does, so by not revealing this high level decision they are hiding it from the general public. Many companies have proprietary information that they do not release to the general public I truly don't understand what you're going on about in this thread. If you want to personally disagree with CGC's grading that's fine. There are a lot of things I don't agree with when it comes to how CGC does business.
  11. Yah they publish them here for public viewing https://www.cgccomics.com/grading/grading-scale/ where they kindly ask "To view the CGC grading standards for comics, see the Standard Grading Scale below" That's very high level. It's "grading" from 1000 feet. Once you get into the weeds and start analyzing books closely, it's different and that level of detail is not comprehensively published by CGC. Only CGC employees know those details. You can get a glimmer of it from grader's notes but that's about it.
  12. Exactly, the guy that quoted me as "putting foot in mouth" cited my stating entities that are NOT cgc do not factor age But that's irrelevant as it applies to CGC's grading.
  13. Damn! Another one I've been seeking in high grade
  14. As it applies to such threads here, Friday is a state of mind, not simply a day
  15. Ontario native My condolences
  16. I imagine that every so often a comic crosses a grader's desk and they are truly puzzled why anyone would actually pay to have such a piece of shite graded. This has to be one of those moments
