TheGeneral Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Awesome! I was sweating on the Sailor Sweeney book, had to use what I learned from previous rounds on that one.

comicginger1789 Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 What did others guess? I went 9.4 on the flash. I considered 9.2 but thought I was harsh. The crime one I nailed flashlites 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGeneral Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I was between 9.0-9.2 on the Flash and 4.5-5.0 on the SS and decided to go higher on both (9.2 and 5.0). It was the Showcase 4 and Adventure from previous rounds that made me go higher on the SS. grendelbo, jcjames, flashlites and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wasnt sure how badly the defects would hit the lower grade book as I tend to be more conservative with staining. But overall, proud to have been in such a tight race and 4th out of a little over 100 isnt too shabby.
