	I have been submitting Godzilla to both CGC and CBC and I am pretty sure I am spending more to get them slabbed then what they are worth. But I can not help myself. They look so cool in the case I want to protect them for as long as I can.

	It's your money. Do what you want with it. But honestly I don't understand it. If a book has sentimental value. Why would you not want to be able to hold it, smell it, read it, and feel it in your hand? Instead of a cold hard slab? To me, it would be like getting your dog stuffed by a taxidermist before he dies. Any comic book that has sentimental value only, will certainly last a lifetime in a mylar or mylite baggie. Having said all of that. I have a book that I doubt anyone else has ever slabbed. I also have a book that should have never been slabbed, and is the highest graded, and is NOT in the CGC census as such. Old label and states graded in 2000. There is a 9.6 and 9.4 on the census, which is kind of silly as to why anyone would grade a 9.4 of this book. What a waste of time and money.

That's actually a valuable book worth slabbing. I knew that going in. My point was that I have no plans to do anything with it.

	My first comic wasn't something cool like Spider-man or the X-men. The first book I ever picked off the shelf was Power Pack # 8. I was 9 and the cover caught my eye because of the Kid super heroes, Cloak and Dagger, and several monsters. I have a copy of it graded 9.8. I also submitted a Power-Pack #1 I got signed by the co-creator at Heroes con. CBCS should be shipping it soon. Not valuable but priceless to me.
