7 yearsJesse_O (39308): 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...

I think Shaw and McGregor are actually sitting in place for maybe two issues and just walk in some general direction for the third, at least in the present. I do like how they’ve built up the FBI director as a hard ass that seems to care and empathize with her agents. I was actually relieved when they seem to dissuade her from entering the warehouse but then she does so...

8 hoursSidTheSquid (1524): CGC wasn't holding back 9.9s and hasn't adjusted their standards (except in the whole banana 9.8 area)- they weren't taking the time to LOOK for 9.9s among books they graded at at least 9.8... and now they are, for special customers or large orders of already graded 9.8s with a note attached asking to look for 9.9s. Or that's what it seems like, anyhow.

It is very meta and wants the reader to be aware of this by throwing in many cliches and tropes of your favorite colored-undies wearing superheroes. I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. I think there is one more issue left of Inquisitors. It's fine for what it is and will be my last...
