 I live in RI and Rhode Islanders eat chili with beans.

| @DrWatson - Believe it or not, he only has his claws extended on one hand because Marvel didn’t want him sticking his claws into Cap’s head in the 50-year logo box. | ||

Nice run on the Amazing Spidey's too. My most recent submissions is packed with bronze age Spidey's that are currently parked in the "received" lot next to everyone else. |

| We have one of those epson shaquille O’Neal printer copiers. It’s really sweet for tech inclined like me but I can’t scan graded books. Sob. | ||

For your viewing pleasure:        The scanner did not like this embossed cover.      |

Finally got my books back from the Thanks24 promo. Here are the highlights:            That last one is supposed to be the rarest cover for SiKtC - it was a 1:25 variant when most stores weren't ordering a ton of copies. Now a break from SiKtC with some J. Scott Campbell:       |

| Fedex is on the way, will update with photos. Nothing spectacular, just things I overpaid for and felt obligated to submit for vsp along with a couple other tmnt books. Update: He's driving the wrong direction!!! This is what I get for making fun of @Heinzdad the other week. |

Overall happy with these and got more 9.8s than expected. I see why the 9.6s aren't 9.8s.   |

Got back all of my VSP holiday promo books. Only one failed. The Action Comics was a gift from my secret Santa here on the boards, and the Lady Mechanika was a Kickstarter bonus. All the rest were collected by me in person. None were pressed. Considering all of these were bought and read before being carried to shows and signed, I'm happy with the grades. All will stay in my PC.      |

| This might be one of my most satisfying submissions yet. Thanks CBCS! First up is a gift from @Heinzdad  I got this from a MCS auction. My first and only Wrightson signature.  These were previously slabbed by CGC and unverified.   It's great to have my only Steven Hughes signatures verified. I also wasn't expecting any 9.8s.      |

| @flanders I have a bunch of signed stuff from that Cap run. Eventually I will probably get them all slabbed, for estate planning purposes if nothing else. Same for Ultimate Spider-Man. I've got lots of signed Ghost Rider books too, but that one is the only Gary Friedrich sig. He signed a few Sgt. Fury books for me back when, but most of those aren't in great shape. I really could have sent at least a short box for that promo, but had to pick and choose. | ||

| A smattering of the two large orders I placed during the first two promo events the end of last year. Still awaiting my VSP promo order, which was 31 books in all. Happy with most of the grades, though would have loved an X-Men 1-5 9.8 J. Scott Campbell set (#2 not pictured).        Two kickass Wolverine and Gambit covers!   Disappointed with the Doom & Storm cover grade, but considering the paper these Marvel books are printed on now I can't say I'm surprised.   Hell yeah.  LOVE these convers, especially the Jenny Frison Vamp.    |
