  1. Ive only purchased one cbcs slab in my life. Killing Joke cbcs 9.8. It cross graded to a cgc 9.8 so im 1 for 1 there. In December I purchased a Spawn Thanks - cgc 9.8 from Ebay. Best offer of $330, all in. Since then, 2 cbcs 9.8 copies of that book have been sold. 1 sold for $370 all in and the other for $340 all in. Maybe buyers are starting to soften on cbcs slabs.
  2. The violence would fit perfectly in an R rated Marvel Zombies movie. Yeah, never gonna happen, I know.
  3. Guys really need to stop pooping on 90s comics. Theres some real crapitty on the stands these days and they all have 17 covers each. I dont see how thats any better.
  4. I have a newsstand Magneto cover but its got a few dings on the spine. I wouldnt mind having all the #1 covers in newsstand. I have 2 through 12 in newsstand too.
  5. just stack them to the ceiling. Whats the worst that could happen?
  6. Pressing is restoration. I said it. 😆 NY pizza? Its the water they use to make the dough. I've heard that NY tap water gets shipped to pizza joints throughout the country.
  7. 😟 In my best Rick Grimes voice: Im so sorry this happened to you.
  8. A CGC 9.8 graded #1 will also help you sell your 1 - 100 run if you ever wanted to. I try and add a graded book to all my runs.
  9. There are a ton of them, sure. There are also a ton of new comic fans that were not around to buy 20 copies of each cover like most people did 30 years ago.
  10. I thought those inner well scuffs were done by CGC as a strategy to fight Newton rings.
  11. My kids, ages 21 and 14, love manga so maybe it's a generational thing? I don't have any interest in reading them and there are quite a few in the house. Pokemon, Naruto, Soul Eater, My Hero Academia, Kingdom Hearts I've bought many of these for my kids for X-Mas gifts over the years but that's the only reason why I know what they are.
  12. Todd was a teenager when this book came out. This is obviously the first ever graded multiverse submission. Very rare.
  13. I use wooden file cabinets. My job was throwing them out so I took 3 home. I lay the slabs flat and stack them 5 high. I only have around 75 slabs though.
  14. I only have 1 ow/w ASM 300 - 9.0 Im not spending $2-$300 to upgrade the page color.
  15. Youve been clicking on the same threads for 20 years? Why not ignore them? Im not attacking you, just curious why.
  16. Secret Wars 8 for me. I dont own a 252. The cover doesnt do anything for me. My Spidey run starts at 298...The Toddfather!
  17. If pressing were considered restoration it would put the graders in an impossible situation. How could would they 100% know if a book has been pressed? Would they simply be best guessing? Scary thought.
  18. Ive been blocked by MANY sellers. They did you a favor by blocking you. Plenty of honest sellers out there.
