Another big one! (1st app of Scott Pilgrim)

Back in December I submitted for both Comics Festival! FCBD books to be updated with the appropriate Scott Pilgrim information from Wikipedia.
UNFORUNATELY, they haven't been...even after 4 months.

Was that the label notations thread? It is located in comics general coolest threads thread... Pinned I believe 

Although if that is where you submitted the request, I thought they had updated it since then with notations added. A head scratcher, but usually when they update, they give a reason why request is denied. Did it say?

I know also that CGC mike said the guy was busy last I heard, or I think 🤔

Yes, posted in that thread.
Just viewed it to pull that snip and saw someone ask Mike about a request from 6 months ago.
Mike basically said that the ONE guy doing the notations is busy.
I'm also holding out hope for a Scott Pilgrim custom label to be announced to coincide with this year's 20th Anniversary.

I like SW, but have no idea what this first appearance is.  Please, let me in on the secret.

Basically all the characters from the game Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order except for Cal Kestis. Most important being Cere Junda and Eno Cordova

I didn't play that one because I watched Shameless.  Can't put that actor into any other role.

Just curious...   I just discovered this book after collecting Spidey for over 40 years and was wondering if it was on your list.  It's an old one, but I think it still counts - if you can find it in 9.8 that is:

This got me wondering whether the Marvel Questprobe books were on the list. I think they're probably common enough, but maybe not in 9.8.

Out of curiosity, I looked up the census, and they *are* rare in 9.8 (probably because there's not a huge demand for them), but 2 of the 3 are available for not-bank-busting prices on eBay:

7 in 9.8:

This is not actually the first appearance of the Metal gear characters, however. The 16-page ashcan was essentially a preview for this miniseries, and was distributed a couple months earlier. Not my book:
