  1. Unfortunately, this means that the price ceiling as a collector's item will never be very high. It sold almost 2 million copies during it's initial release.
  2. Dude, send in the 9.4 to CGC for a pressing and cleaning and you will end up with two 9.8's. LOL.
  3. I read in another forum that the amount of Spawn #1's subbed were insane. This is what prompted Todd to make that video about not having it signed.
  4. I saw all the videos but don't recall him specifically mishandling them. Does anyone have a link? Now I'm nervous.
  5. I thought I had read in the thread that b/c of the delay with TM gettting sick that the pressings were done prior to him arriving in Florida to sign, instead of after.
  6. Mine were received on 12/11 (delivery of 12/9 by USPS) and grades were posted this morning.
  7. I don't understand....SM Annual 1 Expo is a Clayton Crain cover art. What makes people think a TM sig will bump up the price dramatically?
  8. Anyone know when was the last time CGC held a private signing with The Toddfather prior to this one? Or how often these happen?
  9. For what particular issues? It looks like there is going to be a surge for Todd CGC SS in the upcoming days-only those highly sought after comics will get top dollar.
  10. Same for me. I got several blue label 9.8s that I want The Toddfather to sign. Since they are already 9.8’s, should I expect the same grade in return since the only people handling them is CGC?
  11. With a cleaning and pressing 7.5, maybe 8.0. Do yourself a favor and have it cleaned and pressed. Sweet copy with lots of potential.
  12. 3.0. Maybe a 3.5 with a cleaning and pressing.
  13. I'm guessing a 9.0 without cleaning & pressing, 9.4 with. Expect a dreaded "Green Label" for this one, which makes it toxic to most collectors/buyers. Unless it has sentimental value, don't waste your money.
  14. Thanks. What do you see that keeps it from the 9.4 to 9.6 range?
  15. 40-year old comic in need of grading opinion. All thoughts and opinions greatly appreciated!
  16. Is "wrinkle" the proper term for them? I have them on some of my books, but have no idea what they are called. It's almost like if the paper fiber has scarring tissue on it.
  17. I would venture to say a 4.5. Is that Marvel chipping at the top edge?
  18. Tanning issues and how they relate to grading are a tough call to make. I definitely recommend buying the Overstreet Guide to Grading comics.
  19. It couldn't hurt to have it pressed, cleaned, and regraded. The RC definitely needs it.
