Bosco685 Posted May 24, 2015 Author Share Posted May 24, 2015 Six total Deadworld #10's have been graded in all grades. It is a very hard book to obtain, for me at least, and I had a lot of help. Out of those six, each cover has one 9.8. Alas, I do not own one of those. And, unless I am doing something incorrectly on GPA, there have been ZERO recorded CGC sales of this book. Ever. Crazy!

Bosco685 Posted May 24, 2015 Author Share Posted May 24, 2015 (edited) Six total Deadworld #10's have been graded in all grades. It is, and was, a very hard book to obtain, for me at least, and I had a lot of help. Out of those six, each cover has one 9.8. Alas, I do not own one of those. And, unless I am doing something incorrectly on GPA, there have been ZERO recorded CGC sales of this book. Ever. Crazy! You have to remember the CGC census on this book is all messed up. CGC didn't correctly account for the two different covers. Here's the real census on the books I can account for. 'Not For Wussies' Variant Cover: 9.8: 2 total (1 x SS, 1 x BL) - I own the 1 x SS 9.8 which was the 1st 9.8 to hit either census. - RMA had the blue label 9.8, which was sold to Comix4fun. 9.6: 1 total (1 x BL) - I owned one, and submitted it for another Crow nut's collection. 9.4: 1 total (1 x BL) - I purchased this book from a fundraiser sale. - I sold it later to another Crow nut. Tame Variant Cover: 9.8: 0 total (CGC mistakenly listed RMA's book as the opposite cover, so when he listed his book on Ebay as the only 9.8 in the census he did this not aware I had the CGC SS 9.8 shown). 9.6: 2 total (1 x SS, 1 x BL) - I own the SS 9.6, and purchased it from someone on the boards. - sexyghoul owns the blue label 9.6, which NewEnglandGothic submitted to CGC. Unaccounted For Covers: 9.6: 1 total (1 x SS) - I've never seen this book posted anywhere, so it would be difficult to tell which version it is.

NewEnglandGothic Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Thank you. It is the first poll I have ever created on the Boards, and was not sure the best way to set it up. My life will go on, whichever way the pendulum swings. But I would rather at least try, then do nothing at all. It will not make me enjoy my book any less than I do now. It is such a great, great piece of Crow artwork. I voted and voiced why I voted the way I did. Hope, I didn't lose a friend in doing so. As it's my personal opinion alone and not made for any other's benefit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockMyAmadeus Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 9.8: 0 total (CGC mistakenly listed RMA's book as the opposite cover, so when he listed his book on Ebay as the only 9.8 in the census he did this not aware I had the CGC SS 9.8 shown). Why is the "tame" cover the variant? I consider the explicit cover to be the variant, and marked it so on my submission form. It would not have mattered if I did know about the SS 9.8, because universals and SS are different things. I still would have listed it as "only 9.8 on census." I don't have a problem if others disagree, and they can do with their listings as they choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jugger Grimrod Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Hey Jugger Grimrod, Have you obtained any new Crow sketches lately? My apologies for the delay, I need to figure out how to set it up so when someone comments it alerts me. Nothing new in my Crow sketchbook. Still kicking myself for selling my four original pages from issue #2. All four pages were in sequential order too. I know they are in good hands though and the buyers over the years greatly appreciated them. I am tempted to send in my original Caliber mini to CGC, I have never sent a book to CGC before, but I had mine signed by O' Barr before CGC was started and now it seems unless "they" witness it having them graded could potentially hurt the value. I had James sign them on the covers, unlike my Dark Knight Returns I had Frank Miller sign those on the inside front page, some say that won't hurt the value but having a signature on the cover will. I think its all BS, I know they are legit, and that is all that matters. Should I send them into CGC? Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couchy81 Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 (edited) Hey guys, was just perusing ebay for the usual books and this popped up, figured one of you may be interested. I don't have a copy myself but the seller only ships to U.S. residents, (and I'm refraining from larger purchases lately, saving up funds for a Crow #1) http://www.ebay.com/itm/A-Caliber-Christmas-9-8-The-Crow-SIGNED-by-J-O-Barr-/321776947499?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4aeb66912b Same seller also has a 9.8 SS #1, just noticed Edited June 8, 2015 by Couchy81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
