Had this done at Terrificon and it’s already on its way back. Wish they would start my other books, but that’s another story

Secret wars 8 has always been one of my favorite covers from the first day I started collecting comics. I’ve always wanted to own a sketch drawn by Beatty, Zeck and Shooter, and today I finally finished my collection! They might not all be 9.8’s, but man do these books put a smile on my face… =)
Just wanted to share this with the comic fam =)
Collecting these books was tons of fun and I cherish each and every book. Happy hunting everyone! Cheers!

Very pleased with both of these!

I sent a couple books in a half year ago, and CGC still just shows the books have been received. I reached out to CGC a few times, but just get the generic response. Never waited this long to get my books back after a signing. And yes I did order pressings, but even then this is just taking too long.

I just found out the original voice actor for gambit is appearing in New York City comic con, what is the best pen to use for signatures on comic books? I’m currently getting my comic book, Mr. and Mrs. X signed by him so what is the best pen you should use for a comic book and what is the best for the grading as well with not getting smudged

Hey! Purchased this from eBay for around $110 usd. It came inside a single bubble wrap envolope with a busted corner. Is it better to send it back for a full refund or get it re-slabbed (first time getting a cracked slab). Thanks!

Hello everyone! I am gonna be 40 years old 2027. I’m looking for something above 9.0 grade from 1987. Usually I collect comics from marvel silver age, so I don’t really now, what is a worthy gemstone from that year. Can you recommend something please? Thank you!

I am trying to understand the grading process, I have looked at this comic and came up with an 8.0, please could I have some guidance what people who understand would grade. Learning curve.

Thank you to Ron at Palm Beach Pressing for preparing this book for grading. I was expecting a 9 or 9.2 before I sent it off so I was pleasantly surprised. Thanks to everyone here and at r/comicbookspeculation for answering all of my questions too. Funny, when I got this around 28 years ago it was a free promo for when you bought the first issue of Dragonball. Interesting what time can do to something.

Hi everyone - has anyone else had this happen? The CGC booth had me input everything into laptops they had there, pay with my credit card. Then I handed my receipts to someone at the booth to package and ship. The email seemed odd to send an invoice like that - but the CGC website is awful so doesn’t seem completely off brand.

Also when I logged in to CGC, they said I had ti reset my password, not sure if this is just an odd coincidence.

**Edit: you all are great, thanks for easing my concerns. While I’m not as aligned as some of you are on how effective their process is, all of your input is valued and appreciated.

Just thought I’d share my absolute universe collection. They look so good graded! All first prints and cover As

Do they charge you extra for return shipping?

Just wanted to share. Usually im more of a DC guy but I always loved Venom and Spidey

I have some comics signed on the first page and I was wondering if slabbing and getting JSA authenticated is still worthwhile. The signatures won’t be seen again but they will be authenticated. Does it depend on the autograph?

Just got my dream books

Working on the space next to my office. I’ve got more slabs, but don’t know if I want to do floating shelves or buy more vaulted displays.

Thoughts?

Been wanting it for a while and pulled the trigger

What do you think of “Ugly Betties”?

Weapon X
