    last but not least a gift from @Og King k00pa david!

    This was not expected at all. I first reached out to him in the C2E2 thread When he had a question. I answered it to the best of my abilities gave him my phone number and we met at the show yesterday. As I stated it was a very nice guy very jovial very outgoing very excited.

    Well today I was standing in line to submit a book and he was receiving his book back from CGC which by the way it’s a pretty cool book with the signatures that he got on it maybe David should post post them :baiting:. Only if you’re willing of course. He said thank you for the help and handed me this, I was blown away.

    It Was a pretty popular variant this weekend and I did not get one. He was in line for them yesterday and he had to of been maybe the 50th person tops to get a few. It was very thoughtful very cool and I really appreciate it I hope he stays on the boards and becomes a valuable member!

    sorry for the pretty bad pic but I’m sure you can find a better scan if you wanted to.

    I like that cover. 9.0-range IMO.

    i went to 5 stores today searching for it.  Out of all the stops i went too, someone i met at the last stop, got the only copy of  the main cover they had.  He was like iI'm sorry man.  I said its okay i was really only looking for the mattina cover he told me he had one in his truck we traded in the parking lot on the spot for a lower grade i had  in my truck from one of my earlier stops

    I see 9.8 potential. 9.6 at worst. 

    Fingers are crossed I think im going to get it pressed when slabbed idk yet.  I usually purchase already slabbed.  I'm about to post another.  I feel most confident about the next one.  Would appreciate your input on it, will be silver surfer black 1 1:100

    Also this is some things to keep in mind for your first con...and it depends on how many days.

    1. there is a lot to take in so download the free C2E2 app. In that app you can make a list of people you want to see and where they are. Same thing with panel times which the app will send notifications an hour before time.

    2. I don't buy the first thing I see!!!! I take a card and mark what aisle its in and come back later ( unless its limited or its a great deal). remember you don't want to spend all your money on the first day.

    3. If you buy comics from dealers/artist its good to have a comic portfolio box (or 2 or 5 like me) which you can by at any LCS or from @HOTFLIPS at the show ( i recommend @HOTFLIPS ive bought from them while at the show and they beat the other dealers there).

    4.bring a backpack with snacks and a refillable bottle!!!!! it also carries your comic boxes from @HOTFLIPS Also this is a PRO TIP... if you buy lunch in the cafe and by a fountain soda refills are free ALL DAY!

    5.Grab a free program if you don't use the app. it has all the info you need. 

    6. Get there early! show starts at 10 so be there at 9...the line sucks especially on Saturday ( boooooooooooo on Saturday to many people, friday is the BEST DAY HANDS DOWN!!!!)

    7.Have fun walk down very asile look at all the dorks people in cosplay.

    8. stop by and see your cgc friends @MrBedrock  @Dale Roberts @jadams @HOTFLIPS and say Hi! ( is this an ad for Hotflips?) SORRY IF I MISSED ANYONE!! these are the only people i know form the boards and they don't know me which is fine!

    9.Pay attention to the weather the week of the show. Chicago can have great weather or bad weather this time of year. also coat check is very reasonable!

    If Ive missed something anyone can chime in or you can PM me and we can talk to and or meet up at the show.

    Thanks for such a detailed response.  I am excited for sure.  I am attending the whole weekend or at least Friday and Saturday.  I had the app downloaded already and added the people you suggested, that were on there, to my current list.
