  1. Just received this yesterday. Date says it was signed 10/21 so it was slabbed after that. Really hope they did/are fixing it, because this is terrible. Going to reach out to Brittany for help. Where do I find her email? Thanks.
  2. Did Dell’Otto’s Action Comics 1015 variant with Supes get canned!?
  3. My Cap label looks good to me, it just covers a bit of his backside and then all the cloudy/debri detail. The spider-man label actually works pretty good, because the CGC logo covers most of the goblin.
  4. I’m not a fan of seeing a zombie-like Superman, but as a cover, I think it’s quite good. However, I’m liking his upcoming AC 1015 even more.
  5. Thank you very much for the tips, it’s greatly appreciated. After posting this last night, I stumbled across previewsworld.com and that looks to be a good help as well.
  6. Just curious how you keep track of what's coming up? With all the variants, and virgin covers and shocking amount of titles out there; is there a site that helps with this (preferably with pics) or do you just jump to a handful of sites and keep track of it manually. I'm only into this a couple of years and usually find a lot of the books I would want after the fact. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
  7. This guy sure does have some amazing art out there. I only have his Action Comics 1000 cover, but even that is great. I'm tempted to grab some of the covers that jump out at me, but I'm afraid I might be going down the so called "rabbit hole."
  8. I'm hearing mixed things. I'll probably pick it up just to read it. On a side note, I noticed that this first issue (and maybe all three) are quite thick - how does CGC grade these thicker books. Won't they just have newton rings all over the place if they are smashed into the holder?
  9. I had to PO that Catwoman and make sure to get it signed. No way was I missing this one.
  10. Haven’t seen that pic before, but that looks like them, minus the Iron Man label. Personally, I like them. Will be getting a Spidey and Cap for sure.
  11. My email says they’ll be offered through 2019.
  12. I got the email just before sending in a handful of books for reholders, so I’m holding off to see what they look like. If they’re nice, I’ll probably snag a couple. Hopefully DC does something like this as well.
  13. First off, I apologize for bumping an old thread. As you can see, I'm brand new to the forum and have only been into the comic book scene for about the last 5 years or so. I grew up with them just like most of you, I just didn't collect them. As someone who is relatively new to this hobby, I found this entire thread to be very helpful. When I first started, I had not a clue what the 1:25, 1:100 numbers meant, so thank you for helping me to understand that. While I was reading this thread, I couldn't help but notice that something was repeated several times and it went in the face of something I noticed the last couple of years. Several posters said that actual print numbers would rarely, if ever, be divulged. I am a Star Wars fan and wanted several of the variants when Star Wars was re-launched by Marvel a few years back. It seemed common that most (not all) regular variants were 3000 and the sketch variants were 1500. Again, not all of them. Then when Action Comics hit their 1000 milestone, they did the same thing and announced edition sizes for the regular, virgins and sketch variants. I don't recall the numbers, but they are easily accessible. Another one is the Dark Nights: Metal #3 Finch variant as many places state that at only 975 (I point this one out because I have it). I respect everyone's expertise in this thread and I'm curious of your take on this. Are these numbers made up by the retailers that get the exclusives or are they from the publisher like Marvel and/or DC. Please don't be too hard on the new guy and excuse my noobi-ness. Thanks.
