  1. Moon Knight was in Wonder Woman 32? pretty sure WBN is the right abbreviation
  2. wait until it arrives and notate the true cost listed on the postage from there you should be able to determine what handling and packaging costs were and if they are within reason
  3. Brittany McManus (Signature Series Director title as of end of last year) just recently said, almost every person that has come to do a signing this year will do one again in 2021 (even in conjunction with shows/cons possibly returning) ... given her newer responsibilities and her statements sounds like CGC looks to be in the in house signing business for the long term I also don’t know if she misspoke but she also said John Romita was coming this year .... maybe she meant to specify Junior but the interviewer put up a picture of Sr. interview was on Superpower Review (can find on YT) Will be nice to have another chance for Perez (if he is one of the ones returning) but Romita Sr and Alex Ross still top my want list
  4. https://collectormount.com/shop/ols/products/comicmount can be used as a wall mount or easel style stand
  5. based on current FMV from 1 source, if it falls to either a 9.0 or 8.5 it would lose $125 in value ($550 to $425) same swing but in the positive if it went up 1 grade to a 9.4
  6. consensus will say, if you are happy with your current grade 9.2 which seems very solid for a book of that age, then it is not worth risking there are too many variables that can go wrong ... damage in shipping the book again either to or back from CGC, improper handling of the book by the facilitator or signer, a grader with different thoughts on a 9.2 than the original grader, etc, etc find another book and go from there .... good luck
  7. other tips I would add from my vast experience with having books signed (1 ... but hey at least I went in informed) familiarize yourself with the talent’s signature and make your window spacious enough to fit said signature pick an eye pleasing spot on the book for the sig .... this may seem obvious but I’ve seen numerous books with little thought for this ... you may be limited by the busy-ness of the art on the cover write on the window box tape what color you want the sig done in if you have a preference or want to avoid getting lost in cover art ... signer may not always heed your direction but it’s worth the ask if important to you multi board the book in the bag .... you don’t know who will be handling the book and this may prevent unwanted damage
  8. props to team CGC (Jennifer, Brittany) for taking care of my issue with a re-slab got my book back again today and it looks much better, while there are a couple of minuscule newton ring spots around the sig it is nothing like the original slab .... hopefully in the future they find a way to make the slabs 100% free of this effect
  9. again, books are not pressed for the SS events until after the signing CGC did an updated recap today on their FB page and lists Steranko under completed signings Steranko’s own Twitter post confirms the signing has happened already the week of 8/2 https://mobile.twitter.com/iamsteranko?lang=en
  10. why would you doubt it, what reason would CGC have to lie??! if you look at CGC's FB feed, Brittany commented that the Snyder signing was completed last week (that post was dated 6 days ago, so just about 2 weeks ago) I cannot post the direct link as I am not registered on FB but you can confirm what I am saying in the comments of CGC's post from 7/29 regarding "Let's Recap, Shall We?"
  11. If the book is unread how do they know what they are listing
  12. Fantastic Four featuring The Frightful Four in a 4.0 would be un4getable
  13. make sure you are logged in go to cgccomics.com click on My CGC (upper right) >>> My Submissions >>> View Status under Submission Tracking look under status of Order # in question and see if it says Received or any other status of movement breathe sigh of relief
  14. To be fair you had until the end of May (originally) to submit the books and then the signing was moved back a month and didn’t take place until 7/14. Given they said 6 weeks for grading and pressing they are actually ahead of schedule
