MGsimba77 Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 According to cgc, Animal man 2 is a Superman appearance. Its probably right because that seems enough to be a full fledged appearance. Does anyone know if cgc has ever clearly explained how they distinguish b/t cam and app?

Maybe it's to imply cgc didn't put much thought into that particular notation? I was just joking. I only have my opinion, but if there is no real bearing on the story, then it should still be a cameo to me .... like if I show up at my ex-wife's wedding reception, pound a few Michelobs, and get out before she knows I was there.... that's a cameo on my part. ASM Annual 1 has several cameos. ASM 18 as well, has a few cameos. As the hobby gets more and more slab oriented, it will become increasingly difficult for people to comprehend much of anything that actually happens inside the book. Plus , if a cameo isn't something deemed important to the SOL's.... it's no wonder people can't grasp the meaning of the concept anymore.

There is no consistency to CGC's notes, which is why I always tell people to disregard them entirely (well, plus there are some that are just blatantly wrong). But a cameo is just a more specific description of an appearance, so they are technically correct. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hou0lU8WMgo MGsimba77, IngelsFan, Randall Dowling and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Dowling Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 So, it's settled then. Let's just say it- Hulk 180 is the first appearance of Wolverine. Hulk 181 is the second appearance, first cover appearance. It was ever thus. nmtg9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
