Where in the world was the Quality Control at CGC???
djzombi replied to Wally's Comics's topic in Comics General
"Ooops. Nothing can be done" is an UNACCEPTABLE response. -

Books you just cant find in the Wild
djzombi replied to fastballspecial's topic in Modern Age Comic Books
This dang thing. The later Marvel Graphic Novels in general can be hard to find in the wild. -

Board upgrades? Aka The Airing of Grievances Thread
djzombi replied to THE_BEYONDER's topic in Comics General
Happens to me as well. Have to log out, then log back in. I have to do that about every three to five days. -

What's New In Your Copper Age Collection This Week?
djzombi replied to Jasonmorris1000000's topic in Copper Age Comic Books
It's really, really, really bad. I'd avoid it unless: 1) you're a Terminator fanatic and just want it so that you can add it to a pile of Terminator collectibles you already own, or: 2) you want to have fun catching all the artwork swipes from other books, particularly from books by John Byrne. -
how do you CGC grade a polybag comic

Yeah, I've thought from the start that Cheadle was really miscast as Rhodey. 3rd time's the charm...?

That's so odd! Thanks for the re-post, as things get buried

Is this the same book?
djzombi replied to Mgc015's topic in Comic Book Grading and Restoration Issues
Was an NDA signed or something? -
Recent 50-cent bin acquisitions. All post-2000 Marvels. Beat, but the price was right! Another with a weird sticker on it. Newsstand UPC under this one.

djzombi replied to Mgc015's topic in Comic Book Grading and Restoration Issues
I'm convinced this exact thing happened to me with ASM V.2 #36 (the 9/11 issue with the all-black cover). I sent in two copies; the one with more visible spine tics got a 9.8; the one with fewer came back 9.6. -
Moore's Miracleman collected in an Omnibus?
djzombi replied to NoMan's topic in Bronze Age Comic Books
"[as presented in Miracleman (2014) 1-16]; All-New Miracleman Annual (2014) 1" = will be the re-lettered, edited versions previously published by Marvel. Were they also recolored? I would avoid this omnibus at all costs. If you can afford them, get the original collected editions from the late 80s (early '90s?). Or the floppies, but #15 is gonna cost ya. Issues #1-10 used to be dirt cheap, but that might no longer be the case. -
Economy TAT has now increased to 240 business days! Hooray! That's just about a year to wait for your books!
-
oof, that's rough.

Some recent acquisitions, including Malibu, Image, Dark Horse Star Wars, and a bunch of books from the late 90s bagged & boarded in high grade...and all from the dollar bin! Also an odd newsstand sticker over a Direct copy. I've included 2 older New Warriors books I got, because it shows the exact time of transition between UPC styles.

djzombi replied to Mgc015's topic in Comic Book Grading and Restoration Issues
Two totally different books. How does this even happen? It's not like they separate everybody's submissions so that multiple peoples' UF4s all end up in the same pile awaiting to be graded, then subsequently distributed to the proper customers. Right? Yet this isn't the first example of book-swapping I've seen -
Official Canadian Newsstand Cover Price V****** Thread
djzombi replied to davidpg's topic in Copper Age Comic Books
I have a few of these that I bought a long time ago because I *love* oddball stuff like this. I've got a couple of Marvel's Frankenstein Editions Heritage, as well as a few Tomb of Dracula issues. -
I wonder why the Wolverine one-shot is listed as "Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man" in the UPC? It's not even in the Spider-Family of books.

DD #380 is EXTREMELY hard to find in the wild, by my experience.

X-men/Teen Titans and X-men vs Avengers are SUPER HOT!
djzombi replied to Dr. Balls's topic in Copper Age Comic Books
Seriously, aside from X-Men/Teen Titans, these are literally all dollar bin books. I find these in 8.0+ in dollar bins very, very often. They all had high print runs due to X-Men being insanely hot at the time. By the listing's own description, these aren't even 9.2 books. And the Nightcrawler mini-series isn't even complete LOL
