The Biotronic Man stickers are also encapsulated with the comic magazine. It wouldn't be as valuable without them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bart Allen Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 OH MY, since when did CGC grade 2000AD?! Wait, does this mean they'd grade my Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes C-55? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought my 2000 AD #2 as a raw NM in 2017 which at the time CGC wasn't grading mags. I was hoping for at least an 8.0, but since we all know raw grading is subjective I was very happy with a 9.0. I also believe it's even more difficult to grade newspaper covers like 2000 AD's have IMO. batmiesta 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even longer probably depending on how long they've been grading magazines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less than 50% of the HA price. Good luck with the 9.0 sale. That is a very, very rare comic at that grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is and I believe it's the same book⁉️ So unless the owner was very impatient to wait for another Signature Auction or needed the money yesterday, why take such a loss!? Thanks my friend. I didn't want to sell it honestly, but what is the likelihood it'll stay at the top of CGC census for much longer? Nick H (UK) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick H (UK) Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Will let you know how grading on mine goes. It's with CCS now. Never easy to predict these UK comics. I got a Captain Britain back as a 9.8. I was very surprised. But paper quality is so different to the standard. Good luck and I hope you get a great price!

Hopefully, it'll set a new precedent for 2000 AD #2's! $22, 800 Did most of the bidding occur at the end? I have 15 books on Heritage now (all 9.8's), they finish Sunday and they are not exactly setting the world on fire, so should I count on mass Sunday bidding? Or should my bum be twitching as it is now? Edited September 8, 2022 by batmiesta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
