  1. sweeet! those look like some mighty sharp corners too
  2. Fraction is scheduled for heroes this weekend. looks like i missed that one
  3. i posted other books in the infinite signature thread, but i thought this following issue would be cool to share here:
  4. also recently, i got a bunch of Cap cgc ss books from Will Wong. huge KUDOS goes out to him for getting these books done for me. these were the Cap books that got me into the character when I was a kid. I am very pleased to have these issues slabbed, but also signed by Ron Garney. one thing i found when trying to acquire gradable copies was that almost all the issues of Waid and Garney's run was that they all had black spines it did however, make the journey sweet and satisfying: one of the only 2 copies that are even graded, and the other is a blue label it was really tough to find any type of copy that was worth submitting to cgc. i went with what i thought were the best copies that i could find. two submissions for this book and both 9.6 still an awesome cover though. it also features a Doctor Doom appearnace, and even Bill Clinton! (I was hoping they'd put it on the label, but they didnt ) i really like this next one. i got 2 9.8's done. last issue of vol. 1 for this next book, i also got 2 copies graded and both came back 9.8. in the census update, my 2 are the highest among something like 7 other cgc ss books. how much does the fact that the micro chamber is misplaced bother you? it bothers me a lot. i'm lucky i have two at least. is it possible to get cgc to fix the that inner paper for me for free?
  5. recently picked up the first printing of the first issue of the current run on iron fist cgc ss by brubaker. i hope to one day add aja's or fraction's sig to it. big KUDOS goes to Carlos for this book so now i have the pair of first issues:
  6. sullypython, you've got some truly amazing books! and you're a lawyer too! there's some hope for me to become a lawyer while still maintaining this hobby then
  7. very sweet book Tiz i can't wait till I get mine back
  8. Nice book, thought about that one but I'm probably going to sell most of my BA Cap's and focus more on GA stuff. Have some real nice Rosa/Winnipeg copies, mostly in CGC 9.8. i hope you consider me first when you decide to sell some BA Caps!
  9. if that's just the copy you kept for yourself, the ones you submitted for grading must be sweet!!
  10. i grabbed a couple Cap back issues which were $1.50 each this week: also this week, i received a sweet package from Bill Breck (kudos again), as he answered my wtb post with this: when i learned of what the issue was about, i really wanted it as a part of my collection, and i even landed my hands on a cgc copy in the process!
  11. Big KUDOS to BillBreck for selling me two copies of Avengers #56, one cgc and a reading copy! thanks so much
  12. i really really can't wait to get my stan ss books back
  13. OMG! last night, I had the idea to get this issue signed and graded (i too have a 7.5 cgc), and then today, the next day after my dream, I see the exact pic of what i want! (minus the "To Jon. . .", of course) now i know i have to get this same thing done for myself! wicked!
  14. books that were signed NOT in the presence of a Siganture Series witness cannot be submitted for the yellow label. people send their comics to the witnesses, who then take the comics to get sigend at official cgc signing events (comicons/public signings), and afterward, the witness then sends the books off for encapsulation in the slab
  15. i decided to post this pic here as well because I'm such a huuge Cap fan
  16. awesome looking Batman! and double signed too ! here's some books I got this week. i decided to wait until i got the last book today, a Captain America Annual from comicfreaks (Thanks Tiz!) to make my cool little group set of Captain America vs Wolverine cgc ss. The other 2 books were from Will Wong: are there any other Cap vs Wolvie covers out there? i could add to this group. . .
  17. big thanks to HUSH for selling me Captain America #18 triple signed cgc ss! thanks so much
  18. Big Kudos goes out to HUSH for selling me a triple signed Captain America #18. I am now another step closer to completing my cgc run.
  19. beautiful looking books. especially the Stan ones! I can't wait to get mine back.
