If it’ll fit in a slab, I’d think so. I see it says “adults only”, but the cover isn’t risqué or anything. |

@00slim Thanks! I'd like someone from CBCS to respond as I have this book packed and ready to ship tomorrow amongst other books. I checked the Population Report and no records come up. | ||

It's probably one of the most famous underground comics. Last I heard CBCS will not grade underground comics. It's possible someone from CBCS will log into the forum tonight, but I wouldn't count on it. I'd definitely find out for sure before mailing anything. | ||

That’s only my take on it, though. I could be wrong. | ||

I have a 9.2 graded by CGC. But as Jesse said, I don't think CBCS grades underground books. Perhaps it has something to do with the various printings of certain books. Or the grey area between some underground comix and zines. | ||

Alternatively, CGC WILL grade it, though. There are many on their census. | ||

I think it's pretty unlikely between underground, adults only and bags of "dope"...but I don't know any more than Jesse_O does. | ||

The answer is a no. I know this to be 100% correct. I have mint copies of 1 thru 3 signed by 3 of 4 Air Pirates. Dan O'niel, Ted Richard, and Gary Halgren![]() ![]() |

Isn't TMNT from Mirage a underground published comic originally? | ||

Currently, we do not certify underground comics. A general rule to determine an "underground" would be if the comic is listed in the underground portion of the "Official Underground and Newave Comix Price Guide" published in 1982 by Jay Kennedy. CBCS does not consider most independent comics published after 1982 to be "underground," though there may be exceptions. | ||

@SteveRicketts Thanks Steve! I've replaced Air Pirates Funnies 1 with Showcase 55. |

TMNT is neither adult nor underground. TMNT cannot be slabbed by CBCS because of size, not because of content. | ||
