    My submission is still not opened since friday 26. Already contacted customer care few times . A few days ago they replied me to contact them today (wednesday) if it wasn´t opened i just contacted them and they are telling me to wait until monday :( . They say they have a big volume because of the Megacon but i been checking this thread since my submission was delivered and i see that the estimated time to open a package was around 2 days... I told them this and they are telling me now that vintage tier is the slowest , anyway i will contact them monday and see what happens

     

    They always have some kind of excuse ready to go when things like this happens ...

    A.  Delay due to NYCC intake

    B.  Delay due to in house move

    C.  It's the Holidays

    D.  Now it's going to be Delay due to MegaCon intake

    Mark, I don't follow registry related stuff but I noticed that there is a new registry related addition to our profile pages - see below:

    Capture.PNG.f9cf0ac825d43650f8455382ce05f500.PNG

    You can access it on the left hand page (desktop) by selecting the 'See My Activity' button.

    It may have been noted already, but I thought you were the man to tell if not, as you'll likely understand it's significance / potential use :)

    Hmmm, when I click on 'See My Activity' I don't see the CGC COMICS REGISTRY NEW SET & SLOT REQUESTS section at all.

    Also, Zdarsky had the perfect out for bringing Alfred back when Batman was in the alternate universe where Alfred was still alive. 

    He did and I thought that was what was going to happen.  In truth, I don't think I would be happy by bringing in a multiverse Alfred.  The one thing I did get a kick out of in that storyline was alternate universe Alfred was married to Leslie Thompkins.  A nice tip of the hat to a legacy Batman character.

    Wow, this was an amazing issue. Seeing Batman fight Zur in Failsafe's body was awesome. The art was fantastic, the writing was fantastic. Seriously, what a great issue.

    I like that Joker Year 1 is going to tie in with this storyline. It should be pretty interesting!

    I'm definitely on board with what you wrote in your review.  At the same time, I'm a bit conflicted.  When it comes to Zur and Failsafe, I feel like they've worn out their welcome and and Zdarsky is on the verge of beating a dead horse.  Time to move on.  Let's first get the Batman Family back together.  And I think Batman cannot do it alone.  Which leaves me with the one person who possibly could.  It's wishful thinking on my part, but if Zdarsky were to surprise us with the return of Alfred, that would be magnificent.  :)

    My two MFT submissions still have not shipped (please see attached screen cap).

    Yesterday afternoon I contacted Customer Service when it appeared my submissions were not going to ship (1/2).  I was told that if they didn't go out later in the day, then they would be shipped today, (1/3).  Well, we're well into today and the status on both is still G/QC.  It was also explained to me the Shipping Manager has been made aware of these two submissions.  And still we sit.  :taptaptap:

    Hi,

    I have two Fast Track Modern submissions (from 11/22) which have been sitting in G/QC since last Wednesday (12/20).  Touched base with Customer Service to try and find out why they haven't shipped yet.  I was told they will most likely ship on Tuesday, 1/2.

    No one plays a game of "Keep Away" better than CGC.

    Doc Savage was a popular pulp adventure hero created in the 1930s, decades before Marvel issued their comic book version of the character in the early bronze period where they started up a large number of new titles.  The series, unfortunately, never caught on with the buying public and only lasted 8 issues plus one giant-size reprint comic, starting with these two picture frames.  The first ish has John Buscema cover art, the second Jim Steranko creating a fantastic Central American Mayan spectacle, and the interior pencils for both are by Ross Andru.

     

    I very much enjoyed reading Doc's exploits when they were reprinted by Bantam.  Little did I know at the time that they were reprinting the pulp stories out of order.  Still, I looked forward to each and every new paperback when they were released. :)

    Has anyone had any movement in their modern orders the past couple of days?

    I am asking directly because I am curious about whether the changes CGC implemented in their systems held the books currently in their system back a bit.

    It seems they are still backed up from the move. Encapsulation in particular appears to be super bogged down. Or so I inferred from what the rep I spoke to told me. Or maybe just Greggy…who knows?

    We must have just spoken to the same rep.  Encapsulation is tying everything up.
