Also, the timeframe before current ones are vaulted? It looks like next month we will announce which ones we will retire. I'm not sure which new ones will be revealed, or when they will be.

D2 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Hey @CGC Mike, thanks so much for your replies and continued support. I don’t know if you can answer this or not, as I know you have stated you guys are waiting on Marvel’s legal team for approvals, but if you had to make an educated guess, do you think we are looking at Q1, Q4, 2025?

Administrator CGC Mike Posted January 15 Author Administrator Share Posted January 15 This is what I was told: We just got the contract back, and will start working on our retiring list and new ones soon. We just have a lot going on right now and our team does not have the bandwidth to take on another task. We will move forward with our plans right after Megacon (Feb 1 - 4).

Cornelius The First Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Is there an any possible available forum for community members to voice hopeful opinions on this? Or elsewhere? I’ve been waiting for a Custom Punisher Label from the beginning…still holding out hope! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D2 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 On 1/23/2024 at 2:56 PM, Manny40 said: Are there any Batman labels? CGC does not have the authority for DC labels unfortunately. I don't work for CGC, or have any insights on why that would be, however, I can speculate that, for whatever reason, DC is difficult with their licensing. I know this because DC killed and by virtue, annihilated all progress on AEs (Artist Edition works). Both IDW and Graphitti Designs had communicated road blocks they experienced while trying to push through (previously approved) works that they had significant investments on. Now, that has since changed, only within the past several months. AEs that were shelved for literally years, were all miraculously green lit... so now if that trickles over to CGC getting authority for DC labels? I mean... seems possible. Sorry for the long winded answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parzival Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Yeah but the text doesn’t make sense. The reference the same labels we got in 2023. For instance that’s the same Black Cat label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator CGC Mike Posted February 8 Author Administrator Share Posted February 8 I received an e-mail from the Marketing manager. Regarding the Marvel labels: The marketing team has been really busy. You guys should hear some news regarding this in the next week or so. The FCBD labels are now available on the OSF. There is no charge for these, and they are available for Universal and Sig. Also, they must be an FCBD book to qualify for the label. If you see someone stating their book isn't showing up, let me know - we pulled the most accurate list we had but we may have missed adding a few in.
