Well I was still in diapers in 1982, my tastes are a little more modern, except for some key Mary Jane Watson issues of ASM most of my collection comes from early 2000's to current. As a comic book lover like yourself it's never to late to enjoy the finer things in life. The artists of yesterday Jim Stranko, Neal Adams, Jim Starlin, Mike Ploog, Jack Kirby, Artie Simek, John Romita Sr and Jr. Now these are artists!! Just to name a few. Not the ones of today. Since when does the HULK look like a green guerrilla with perfect teeth!!

	@SteveRicketts Is is possible to include "Pressing" as a category in future Turnaround Updates? I personally sent in some books to have pressed and graded recently, so I'm asking for purely selfish reasons. It think it would help the community with having a better idea and expectation of how long it will take to get their books back. Also will hopefully eliminate some of the posts and calls to customer service. Just a thought.

Also will hopefully eliminate some of the posts and calls to customer service. Just a thought. Pressing is very backed up because of the overwhelming demand we've received. Making a guess at turnaround right now will be less than accurate. So, yes, we will start reporting a turnaround on pressing in the coming weeks. As soon as I get a handle on it and can predict it with some sense of accuracy.

	@Dshel61 It's a process where hear and pressure is applied to a comic to remove certain defects. Basically like itoning the wrinkles out of a comic

One of the best supporting characters in comics ever That is until they had Brand New Day, the only comic story that could make the Clone Saga stuff look like a good story arc. That's one of the reasons I stopped reading Spider-Man.
