Popular Post Cushing Fan Posted February 12, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 12, 2023 My picks for this round Startling Comics #40 - 3.0 Strange Confessions #1 - 5.0 Fantastic Four #50 - 7.5 Batman #210 - 5.5 Captain Marvel #31 - 9.4 My best round - 3 bullseyes and only a half grade off on the remaining two for a total of two points. My secret - I graded quickly and without repeated rethinking everything and making changes - I'll have to remember this for the future 😆 flashlites, ChrispyC66, JollyComics and 5 others 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post flashlites Posted February 12, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 12, 2023 I graded them like this: Startling Comics #40 - 2.0 Strange Confessions #1 - 6.0 Fantastic Four #50 - 7.0 Batman #210 - 6.0 Captain Marvel #31 - 9.4 If I'd know Strange confessions had that top staple popped I may have gotten another bullseye....It looked like may have been popped but alas that is our challenge not having the book in hand... grendelbo, ChrispyC66, frozentundraguy and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a tad bit more forgiving after last round. If not for a few bad calls on my part in round 1 I would have had a better shot. I did ok though! Thanks again Mike!

Popular Post Crose87420 Posted February 12, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 12, 2023 I also had 1.8 on the Startling Comics, ended with I think, 25 points overall. I went, by round, 8, 7, 5, 5. Pretty happy with that considering where Im at grading-wise and the strong finish was nice. Thanks to Mike once again.

Popular Post TheGeneral Posted February 12, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 12, 2023 I was surprised with the Startling at a 3.0. I went 2.0 as I was thinking it could be as low as a 1.8 or as high as a 2.5. Couldn't tell that was a tear on the back of the FF. grendelbo, flashlites, ChrispyC66 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
