Noisy Slabs?

I haven't been collecting slabbed comics long enough to know why, but I noticed some of my slabs make a creaking noise just from the pressure of being pinched between my fingers picking them up and others do not. Is this indicative of a problem with the slab or is it just from the thickness of the book inside?

 

Random note: The books that have "creaking" slabs are all DC, the ones that don't are all Marvel.

If this is an elaborate hoax done in an effort to get me to "pull your slab and see what sound it makes" I am NOT falling for it. :sumo:

By the way, fantastic four, the gif in your sig line is quite disturbing...

 

Random video chat such as Chat Roulette has become quite fascinatingly bizarre and frequently smutty. hm

I think you should get an oil can, the kind that the tin man used in the Wizard Of Oz and give each slab a little squirt.

Yea, it's 5.5 megabytes. It's in my own web space at GoDaddy so there's no bandwidth leeching going on as another thread is discussing. I deem that image to be worth it, and although I've got dozens of other funny and sexy ones queued up, that one's staying up a bit, it's a compelling Chat Roulette session. :popcorn:
