[krighton]

that's where my smudges are...let me check the rest...i'll be they're all smudged.

[krighton]

all 13 smudged.

[WiseGuyX]

all 13 smudged.

 

wow,, that blows.

 

I got a small stack headed my way and I'll report back when I investigate them all.

[tjanse]

yeah not going to many 9.8's at all everyone has the same issue. I guess i will order so more and take another shot at it.

[Nico Esq]

I have 10 all w/ the same smudge ... Its a production error and CGC shouldn't penalize if the book takes off.

[tjanse]

well since everyone had the same issue then maybe we might get lucky if thats the case then i wont fill so bad.

What part of Ohio are you in, I will check around Wednesday in my area to see if any of my LCS have some HG copies.

 

unfortunately Dayton

 

, yeah can't help you there since we are in the same exact area. No luck at Mavericks, Bell Book or Schumers. I know a newer store opened up out in Centerville that focuses more on MTG cards than comics but they may have some copies. It is in the shopping center Schumers used to be in on 48. Also I don't ever make it up to Fairborn anymore so maybe Bookery has some copies also.

 

Everywhere I went to had them with smudges and spine issues. What the hell, quality control on new books has been horrible lately. A bunch of the new DC 52s had problems a few months in a row and now this from Image.

anyone have a scan and point out the smudge?

There is a scan of the back cover just above...look at the "E" in Expo...I'm guessing that is the smudge?

So isn't this a printing issue and not overly scrutinized by the CGC?

[DomUga]

quick someone send their best copy to CGC

I think since everyone has the same issue should be ok and not get dinged. But what do i know i think send mine off next week.
