You definitely have to put "CGC IT" in the title. Refer to it as mint, never been read, still in plastic wrapper. Of course you'll need a small grainy pic of the comic in an old yellow bag with no backing board. In fact, make it a mirror selfie pic of you holding the bag, in your underwear if possible. Mention that the tape is still on the bag, then photograph the tape, with dog hair and carpet caught in it. Make them wonder if that's dog hair at all or something worse. Asking price of $99,999.

I would probably list it like this:

"Uncanny X-Men 100, featuring Professor Sex and his mighty cyclops! Trust me angel, this things a beast! It's a real marvel, girl! Um...er...iceman!

WOW! Cgc it!"

Ah the cockn' balls pedigree. I'm surprised we don't see more of the one-eyed monster art prominently on more covers. I've seen a VF/NM ASM129 with a big dingus on Punisher's face.

 

This always reminds me of being back in elementary school. Each new school year most of the boys in my class would get in early and snicker and crack open our "new" books for the year to the first blank page to see which of us would inherit the fruits of the previous year's owner's artistic talents. Invariably there'd be at least one of us who would be greeted by a prominent rendition of male genitalia more or less anatomically correct with pubic hair. Occasionally one of us would swap it with one of the girls books while they weren't looking and eventually a loud shriek and "ew" would come from them when the teacher asked us to open our books causing the whole class to erupt in laughter and jokes. At the end of the year, one of us would be sure to carry forth the tradition and add a new piece of art to the first or last blank page of an untainted book for the next class to inherit.

 

List as is. I bet most male comic book artists first drawings were of cocknballs.

What you do is buy 1000 or so Marvel superhero books of similar grade spanning a few years on either end of this book.

 

Draw the same thing on every book in an appropriate area. Then say you found an original owner collection that has a characteristic cover marking and submit it for a pedigree.
