11 monthsflanders (31542): I have a suggestion that I hope CBCS will consider. Can you ban both the posting of any photos in collection threads as well as sales threads of any CGC slabs numbered 43 and above including slabs with a grade date after January 2023? I think CGC from at the very least 2023 on, maybe even earlier, has shown that they have no respect for the hobby and there isn't any discernible difference from an ethics standpoint, between CGC and PGX.

★   CBCS FAQ

Jesse_O

8 yearsJesse_O (39356): What does a checkmark (asterisk online) by the grade mean? In rare cases, a comic book will look much better than the given grade. In these rare cases, a Check Mark will be placed on the label by the numerical grade. The best way to understand why a specific comic book received a Check Mark designation is to refer to the graders' notes. Example: a comic is graded 8.0. However, the covers are such that it looks like a 8.5 or a 9.0....

Iron Man, Spidey, and Wolverine team up to fight off the Predator invasion while the Predator X is a head shaker and there to set up some future story. Overall, the series was entertaining for what it was with some good art but...

2026 Megacon Will CBCS Attend?

5 daysBelarak (1456): Thanks again Steve for bringing this information to us all. I hope the new ownership provides CBCS will all the assets they need for the witness and show booth personnel. It has always seemed like the booth was understaffed. I hope they also address this problem with CGC getting exclusive rights to shows like HeroesCon and Baltimore ComicCon. It makes things extremely difficult for us to get books signed and graded when CBCS isn't there.

Older (CGC) slab yellowing

6 daysCapCityComics (409): That's a shame. I have an 8.0 GSX1 I had graded back in 2008 that I haven't looked at in a while. I would worry about getting a lower grade if I submitted for a reholder with them. Part of me might consider a clean and press from them (laughable as that may be) for a regrade instead to hedge any other possible downgrades I would receive from CGC otherwise.

There was no indication of a cyber attack, hack, or permanent closure.
