I dont even know what that custom label is about, but why would anyone want something to say Superman on a Marvel book? |

 I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie.

| That brings an old saying to mind, "Just because it's legal don't make it right." That makes it not only butt ugly, but also poorly executed. |

Here are the two slabs from my most recent submission.  The Spider-Man is my birthday present and the Batman is my son’s. He really wanted something signed by Alex Ross. I wanted the Spider-Man to go with its inspiration that I bought new off the stand.  |

Quote:Originally Posted by Hcanes I haven’t seen selling Superman,but the things I’ve read didn’t make me feel great. That said, this label is terrible. Like makes the book worse. And I hate to be that way. I love the hobby. |

 Number two of nycc submissions is back in hand and I was delighted by the grade. I hate to say this but this was the first EGS book I had in my collection. I set it to them to give them a try and they graded raw( not pressing)9.4. So I have to say their grading was pretty good; at least in this case. But alas it looks way better in a CBCS slab.  |

| I was gonna post some rando stuff in here so I could get emails when someone else posts and I can look. Today though, CBCS ran a 5 dollar off a submission promo. I just boxed up 20, stay tuned gents……. | ||

| I purchased my first copy of this off the spinner rack at Carl Ownby's grocery store in Gatlinburg, TN. I searched for the perfect replacement copy of this book for years. Purchased before Bananagate was known to the masses. Perfectly centered. Perfectly aligned. Perfectly banana-ed. I was pissed.  Thanks to the crew at CBCS. Yes, we have no bananas! No bananas today!  |

 How do I know this? Because I've done it myself.

| @flanders it was only for special black belt masters in the 80s. Pretty sure only Patrick Swayze and Chuck Norris received such belts of honor. | ||

| Nothing ground shattering but nice books none the less... Marvel Premiere actually .5 higher than I thought while the test logo books were .2 to .4 lower than I hoped a press would help - my mild OCD is happy they at least came back the same grade (doubles of all these are on consignment at MCS - Premiere at 8.0 but the other test logos also at 9.2!)    |

  These were the last two books I sent to the CGC . And from the looks of it, they will be the last ever. Both of these were victims of Banana Gate, so I'm thankful they retained their grades. I've deduced that the "bend " in the cgc slabs wasn't enough to cause any serious damage. Unless these two books weren't in the cgc case long enough to be seriously affected. Anyway, proper case!   Thanks, and shout out to @Cody_Lockwood. You're the man. |
