6 yearsJesse_O (35890): 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. CBCS...

Any Locking UV Protected Display Options For High End Books?

6 hours00slim (15505): We have cameras on the outside of the house and an alarm system in place. And my collection is insured. The UV protection is certainly the main thing keeping me from just putting my AF 15 on a shelf. I’m not really expecting anyone to grab it and walk out with it. This is more like, “hey kids, look, don’t touch. Oh, but even if you wanted to, you can’t”. 😌

I had bought some issues off the stand here and there over the years, starting with 104. But it was with this issue, 175, that I started buying X-Men on a more regular basis. With the release of issue 201 in 1985, I started buying X-Men every month up through 307 in 1993. After that, I skipped a few issues up through 350...
