I guess I’m just wondering if graded comics, outside of this community are appreciated? It seems in Facebook groups every issue is a 9.8 that they own 😆

If I were for Example to post this image..

I would get some likes, and comments praising the collection, and others how they have that set in better/ perfect condition. Waste of money, how do you read them, and some telling other members that liked it, that it would only cost $100 Or less to have one like it or better. 😆

Then this image of a reprinted tpb would be posted soon after.. and get more likes ...

Just wondering if the outside of the community world cares about grading, or single issues anymore? As everything is available in digital format, reprints, and TPB 

Are the days of knowing how to grade, and condition.. Heck even owning individual issues, turning not important these days?

Just wondering if we’re a smaller group than I thought is all.   

It could also be that the image you posted is way too busy and also too hard to see the art on the comics themselves. I'm not one for liking things on Facebook, but between the two if I had to give out a single like it would be the tpb image.

Is my favorite Spider gwen 24. I got it from a board member in a very good price 

I'll just throw it out there that if any other board member is feeling generous I'd love it for a very good price as well. 😊

Ended and paid. I think the shilling argument is used too often. Im sure it happens, but seems to be the default go to.

Glad everything went smooth. Still surprised it went as high as it did, but that's good for you. 😊

There's a reason why Apple approved Season Two early on before Season One was even over.

I very much enjoyed it. Though the concept of a blind world brings its own suspension of disbelief how they all would get around and live their lives without falling off a cliff. But it works.

To be fair, Apple renewed all of their launch shows before any of them even aired. That doesn't really say much about See on its own. 

I may check out an episode or two to see if it clicks for me. 

I'm surprised to see so much positivity about this show here - it's literally the only place I've seen that. Ars called it a "masturbatory disaster" in a link to this review. Is it really worth a watch? 

I'm a bit confused with this auction for ASM Renew Your Vows 1. When I first saw it I thought I'd keep an eye on it to see if I could get a deal on a 9.6, since the last couple of universal 9.6s went for around $100. But it's already over $200. So I looked up the last SS 9.6, and it ended at about $250, and the one before that ended at $384! Since when did Campbell's signature command that much more than a non-signed book? Especially for a 9.6?

Am I the only person that thought Season 8 was pretty good? And yes I've read the books.

Yep! You're literally the only person. 

Black Cat Strikes is still for sale on his site. Only signed, though. 

Selling for about $100 on Ebay.

Couple more. Been on an ebay binge lately. 

Picked up these this week:

He seems to be pumping out the covers now. Just saw this on twitter, his Star #1 cover: 

Oh he also has a cover for the Birds of Prey #1 one-shot: 

His website exclusives for Wonder Woman #750:

The first two don't really do anything for me, but I do like the last one. This one is a decade variant that should be widely available: 

I love this variant of his:

its the same thing with the Instagram comic raffles.. the winner is always a friend of theirs so the comic doesn't really go anywhere.. and gets to stay in their collection or they sell it off to someone else... and your out your 20$ or 50$ 

The very first raffle I entered on Instagram I won a CGC 3.5 ASM 50. $10 for a ~$250 comic ain't too shabby. I think you just need to make sure it's a reputable account.

Granted I've entered a couple more since with no luck. I think I used up all my luck at the start.

All of the Mary Jane covers are still available as well and they have been up on the site even longer.

Maybe we'll start to see some better pricing if the pattern continues. 

Harley Quinn's Villain of the Year #1 variants. Full set went on sale today and is still available:

Not only is it not original, it was altered again! https://comicbook.com/starwars/2019/11/12/disney-plus-star-wars-a-new-hope-greedo-scene-change/

Isn’t Kindred in a bunch of panels with Mysterio in issue #1?

You're right - I just compared 4 and 5 due to what comicbookdb had listed. He's definitely all over the first issue.

Yes.  Look it cant get a 0.5 because books with missing pages and half torn covers get 0.5.  It cant get a 1.0 or 1.5 because those grades are for books that have no eye appeal whatsoever.  This book has a lot of eye appeal.  So it's either a 1.8 or a 2.0.  That much eye appeal on a good girl book I went 2.0

See that I don't agree with in principle, because does that mean every page could be torn but a solid cover make up for it? I was back and forth between a 1.0 and 1.5, and the brittle pages put me on 1.0. 

I mean I get that CGC graded it at 2.0, and I understand your thought process on it. I guess I'm just harsher on those flaws then they are.
