I'm not experienced enough to assign a numerical grade to them; but they're all clean & presentable. The Spider-Man #1 "Torment" style covers are going on the wall opposite the set of ASM #300 cover swipes; book-ending the room w/ comics. I'm also keeping the Jamie Tyndall Gwenom covers, they look awesome. The rest are going to be admired for a bit, then find their way out to see if they can find a forever home.  |

| Damn! That's awesome Gabriel. I have the Life Of Captain Marvel mini-series in pretty good shape, and a Ms. Marvel #3 I think. I also have the #1's from the recent run. She's a fun character; I really liked that they used her as a principal in Civil War II. Heh, I've been saving up all year to be able to do this. Problem is...its just too easy. I already have a long-box filling up with the "next" large submission: Aliens Predator: Deadliest of the Species (full set except for the Silver Ashcan, which I cannot find). Aliens 1st & 2nd series Carnage (2016) full run Maximum Carnage, full run, Dynamic Forces signed edition copies Predator 1st series Aliens Vs Predator 1st series full run Batman: Harley Quinn 1st print Jokers Asylum II: Harley Quinn 1st print Arkham Asylum 1st Print (have to call customer service & ask about this one) Edge of Venomverse full set Venomverse (full set except for the two McFarlane variants...for my budget does have limits) Secret Wars II Secret Wars III Deadpool's Secret Secret Wars Deadpool Back in Black full set Spider-Man Back in Black full set "So much to do, and so little time..." |

I have over 15 of the SDCC Captain Marvel Statue. They only made 1500, so I got what, 1% of them? I bought them for $13 a piece from a local comic book owner who was trying to sell them at couldn't.  I was going to sell a Statue and slab or two as package deal when I got them back. My next submission is Fantastic Four #36 Fantastic Four #45 a bunch of Street Fighter Kandoken Variants. Some Moon Knight stuff too.. |

BTW. Just a heads up, I am planning on taking all the NM Captain Marvel #1s (from 2012 and 2014) on ebay if they are under $20 in the next several months. You all got to Friday till I go shopping before I snag that market. LOL.  |

| Gabriel, I'll take photos of the two Captain Marvel #1's I've got & see if you want them. I'm trying to merchandise some of my collection to make room for more Spider-Man. 2018 goal is to plug the few holes in Punisher to make it a complete set; Series 1 #1 to Current, plus the various limited runs (Back to School Special, POV, Armory, Hearts of Darkness, etc.). Going to be fun to see what I can get when I list the complete collection. |

| I goofed. Customer service called & told me I submitted three books that I forgot to put on the invoice: ASM #298 ASM #299 Marvel Legacy #1 Oops. They also guesstimated the TAT at being ready to ship sometime in March. Methinks this is optimistic, but it would be nice. |

| I purchased a comic by John Tyler Christopher on September 19, he would sign it and have it graded, then shipped to him than, then shipped to me. Guess what I got in the mail today? The 9.8 book came in. So I am guessing, aside from our comics, creators probably get dibs on a turnaround if they got something set with CBCS, even if they fast passed it. I ain't complaining about how long it takes, just kinda noticed it. |

| When I spoke w/ Customer Service, I half-jokingly said, "Yeah, I know, you guys bump small orders like mine if/when Dynamic Forces or Stan Lee Collectibles send you an order for a Limited Edition signed run of 5000 or so." The guy laughed & said, "Well, it *is* a business, its not personal." Nice to know we've got Don Corleone making the calls in Florida. |

| I have my 2018 calendar marked up already for the big order. I have a dark blue tab at twelve weeks, a light blue at thirteen, yellow at fourteen, and then varying shades of yellow-through red to eighteen weeks. I threw a purple tab out at week thirty; I hope it doesn't get to that point, but if it does I'll have been holding my breath long enough that purple seemed like the appropriate color. |

| @Gabriel85301 About the same TAT as the order I sent in August 10th, ~20wks. Good luck sir, I hope you put up some outstanding numbers! I just checked my invoice on the Aliens mini's, and it says "Processed within 5 weeks of receipt"! A five week TAT would be lovely... |

| My 73 Books Order is complete. I am happy with some grades, and with the others, I definitely can learn from my mistakes I made on my comics as I read the notes. I am happy about my Adi Granov Variant of Captain Marvel #1, signed by Kelly Sue Deconnick is coming back a 9.8, but it begs me to question if I should crack open and get a Granov signature on it at Phoenix Comic Fest this coming summer, only to risk the 9.8 going lower.. Hmmm choices choices choices |

I had Costco to donate a Christmas tree they could decorate, and they'll be donating backpacks to them sometime this spring. I really care about those 2nd graders. |
