Shawn are you able to give any more details about how the covers are gonna fall in the blind bags? Like 1 in 5 is a variant, 1 in 20 is a virgin cover etc.??

Been a minute since I have preordered comics here in the US. Any good places online to get in on some of these already?

This is the type of thing that makes me want to get back into collecting The Walking Dead again. I will be buying some of the these blind bags because it is such a sweet idea. Now if I could just undo selling off the collection a few years ago....

Yeah was gonna say for us folks who had been big into The Walking Dead before and then during the first season of the show this is the first I have ever heard of this knockoff. We would have discussed the hell out of it back in 2011 when things started to take off.

There is gonna be a damn tiger in the show.

Keep your head up sir. I have experienced the worst of the worst with FedEx, UPS and USPS including horror stories of comics, sports cards and even gold coins going MIA. The worst case was with the USPS in which a few gold coins went missing in route. The package was insured and I was made whole. Almost 2 years to the day afterwards I had a package delivered to me in a another state (had moved for work and only had a few weeks left in my forwarding of mail/packages from the prior address) and it was the original package of gold coins. The package was in perfect mailing condition and all I could think was WTF 2 years?? When I went to check the tracking # I saw it had went live a few days prior out of California ( went MIA out of Texas going to Ohio so how in the hell it popped back up in Cali is beyond me). There is always hope it just got mistakenly sat aside or feel aside and you will see it delivered this week.

Just wanting to let the board know that the 12 Team $75 Buy In Walking Dead Fantasy Football League that we have ran now for 4 or 5 seasons has a spot open. It is a 2 player keeper league and we lost bigclutch (Shawn) and one other player this season. If you are interested in joining PM me. I can send over the team that you would be taking over along with explaining all the details of the league to you. The board members who are active in the league this year include myself and ebtorres, Triston Pence, @Captain_Sawyer, strezz_dout, cbalroman, AnthaiHERO, artistlost, Rmfn33, ComicsNYC22, and dhurley. Even though Shawn can not play in the league this season he will be throwing in for us a sweet CGC Graded Walking Dead comic for the winner. This is one of the funniest leagues I have ever ran or been a part of and you will enjoy the competitiveness of the league. EDIT: Looks like we are full now FlyingDonut took the final spot. I did post a new thread over in The Water Cooler in regards to running a 3rd league here on the boards (I run both the 12 team Walking Dead League and the 10 team CGC General league which both have been active now for 4 and 5 seasons with me as the commish). If anyone is looking for a league stop in over on the thread on the Water Cooler.

If anyone is interested in doing this years Walking Dead Fantasy Football league it looks like we will have at least 2 openings available (We may also have a spot or 2 available in the Comics General 10 team league also, which is a $50 buyin). Buy in is $50 or Walking Dead stuff worth at least $50 or more to participate. We will be playing on Yahoo again this year and this is a 12 team league. Big Clutch ended up winning the league last year so here is your chance to knock him off the podium. PM me if interested. -Brendan

If anyone is interested I have a for sale thread going with some foreign Walking Dead stuff, some badass zombie sketches and my big Walking Dead #1 print that I have been getting the actors signatures on over the past 3 years. Open to offers on everything from the regulars in this thread. Walking Dead FS thread Having just had my first child with the wife and now looking at possibly being out my job by the end of the year I am starting to sell off everything in my collection.

I am going to walk away from this series for a little while now on that note. I might go back to reading the trades after a couple more come out.

as with everything, it depends on the price $6 each. Take them all shipped for $135 via Priority Mail.

Anyone need anymore Walking Dead #109 blanks? Looking to sell off the 25 copies that I still have. Figured I would ask here before listing them on eBay.

Just wow at what raw WD books are getting on eBay as of late. Well at least for what I got for a bunch of books from roughly #9 up to around 100. Missing a ton of keys and I got over $1800 by selling them in lots of 10 roughly. $499 for issues 38-48 and $394 for issues 49-59 missing issue 53. Those 2 lots blow my mind.

I don't think there's anyone in this thread who doesn't see this as a significant screw-up from CGC's side (aka "a big deal") ... But, yes, I personally don't think a mistake like this somehow invalidates all the benefits that CGC have brought to this hobby :shrug: As for the 15%+ range, I'd say you're way off there - look at the SS forum, for instance. That forum is basically comprised of people who crack & re-slab books over & over again and there's a new "how often do your SS books change grades"-thread every 6 months or so. None of those threads have ever displayed a level of variance anywhere near those 15% - nor have I experienced this myself with the 300-400 books I've personally cracked for SS. Roy's 1-2% variance seems spot on as far as I can tell. It all makes sense now about you being a CGC Mod. When I got the chance to meet you in person and you had on that t-shirt that said "I'm a CGC Mod sucka!" I didn't put two and two together. CBT can I be a CGC Mod also in your eyes? Now Dre introducing himself to me as JJ was pretty damn funny also. If only I didn't actually know JJ I might have went along with it.

This would make the Walking Dead the greatest show ever.
