Congrats @zzutak.  I am pleased I didn't embarrass myself, but I am going to have to review that Superman to figure out where I went so wrong..

[zzutak]

Congrats to you too!    CGC 6.0 is a pretty darn generous grade on that Supes.  My first inclination was 4.5, which I then bumped up one grade increment because I've erred on the low side this entire competition.  That TRC scuff/tear looks like it was caused by removing a piece of tape.

All I can say is, I'm glad I was not in this tie-breaker.  Pretty sure I would have been smoked.  

Congrats, guys!
