CGC says "GOOD MORTY" is 1st appearance now.4564

To add to the conspiracy. Do you think the people who bootlegged all of these Good Morty books were also the ones to lobby CGC to change their stance on the 1st Appearance? Was it an inside job?? Omg.

Right. Low cost printing techniques would be quite obvious (Kinko's, etc) and using proper equipment is not cheap. It's why earlier fakes are generally so easy to spot. Since there was no financial motive to make these, it doesn't make sense that people would fake them just to be absolutely "authentic" with their bootlegs.

I think there's much more to this than meets the eyes. Anyone contact Oni yet?


Oni had nothing to do with the booklet.

Just to add to this...

I'm from the UK and recently bought a shrink-wrapped season 1 and 2 on dvd, imported from the US at some point and it had a two staple version. Season 2 also had the Plumbus manual.

The cardboard cases, slip covers and dvds were all printed and seem like high quality, along with the Good Morty and Plumbus booklets too.

Obviously I have no idea whether or not they're fake (same as everyone else) but it does seem like a hell of a lot of effort to go to for something that retails for around £15 each.

Pursue all leads. Just because they had nothing to do with it does not mean no one there knows anything about it.

@kaptainmyke it's not the book that's suspect, it's the clear case that your set came in. I've never seen another RAM season 1 DVDs in a clear case. Both my original and the one I got last week were in the same white, flip style case.

No because CGC knew all along that this was the first appearance of Rick and Morty - thats why they never added "first appearance of Rick and Morty in comics" onto the labels of graded copies of Rick and Morty #1.

Just a FYI

It turns out the missing feet bluray copies are all fake. The blurays in all of them are re-recordable black bottom discs.

So it seems the missing feet = fake on the bluray, but means likely real on the DVD...? LOL this is a mess.

The consistency on the bluray seems to be the UV label on the top front as well, while the consistency on the DVD seems to be that first line of text under the feet is missing on the fakes.

Anyone have a real and fake booklet to compare side by side?

I think both your season 1 and season 2 are fake.

This is a DVD unboxing of Season 2 that came with the comic, notice the disc placement is very different.

No. Yours has a sticker blocking the feet where the fakes ones just don't have feet. No reason to be so hostile.

but you are missing that line of text under beth's feet correct? I think that is the defining feature of the fakes at this point

and yes, lets collect the fakes!! I do feel bad for all of those that have bought double-staple books for $250 on ebay in the last week if they turn out fake
