    I have found using 2-3 of these flags has been sufficient to hold the Mylar flap down. The flags can also be easily removed and placed again without leaving any residue behind.

    I understand the OCD part. A few years back I went on an extreme labeling journey after switching everything to mylar.

    When I submitted this I was expecting a 9.4. Sent it in un-pressed and the grader’s notes indicated finger bends on the front cover and a crease on the back cover (which I can’t see). It’s the nicest 7.5 I’ve ever seen…
  27. Popeyeak49
    I purchased my 9.0 back in late 2013 for a little less than what you paid for your 9.2 and felt EXACTLY the same way. Glad I bought when I did. No way would I pay today’s asking prices.

    Sadly the Element Man will probably never become mainstream popular.

    This is my first Sideshow purchase, couldn’t resist...

    3 book Standard tier submission (no pressing services) 9/11/20 - received by CGC 9/22/20 - scheduled for grading

    Adding a little more life...I bought this raw from Jim Payette back in 2013. This was the first book I had submitted for grading back in 2019. I was expecting it to come back as a 9.4 and was thrilled with the 9.6 WP. Census doesn’t show very many copies of this issue in high grade.

    Flash and Green Lantern always made a good team-up.

    I love these three covers. I think Batman 232 is surprisingly inexpensive as compared to other villain first appearances.

    GL 76 was the first back issue I ever purchased after my Uncle introduced me to comic book collecting. I purchased this raw about 35 years ago and recently had it graded. It isn’t high grade but it’s one of my favorites.
