The Spider-Man @ 6.5 is a real shocker. What don't we see in the scan? Or, inside the comic?

 

Hey, I just got my virual image. Thanks Webhead>

 

I am happily printing a color copy which I will be adding to my comic collection. Wonder what it'll be worth in 20 years? Should I date the thing? Or do you think people will remember this happened on Aug. 29/03. Will any of the fanzines be featuring anything about this in their pages? Will I be contacted for an interview? If so, whose gonna call? Am I the only one getting excited about this? Will this all be forgotten by everyone next month? Next week? Tomorrow? Couple Hours? Will this be the last entry in this post? grin.gif

"Amazing Spider-man 274 white pages 6.5 "

 

Can you PM me the barcode #?

 

Hey, it's nice to see your taking an interest in this.

 

What if the grade given is/was a mis-print? Is something like that possible??

99.9% there is a flaw that you can't see from the scan.

 

.001% chance of a mistake blush.gif

99.9 + .001 = 99.901 confused.gif

 

Thank God you grade comics instead of teaching math. tongue.gif

Well, we've talked and criticized about inconsistencies or "apparent" inconsistencies before and this is the first time I've noticed someone from CGC taking an interest. This is just awesome, and I like it! grin.gif

I guess Elroy and Enus are too plum tuckered out from hunting possum to call CGC.
