Post by AnarchoMambo »

It’s been fun reading about the trials and tribulations of any who report on their CGC submissions. So I’m starting my own version, as a proving ground for the notable new key entrants to my PC (9.8s or highest graded,) a preview for the Snakepit (duplicate 9.8s,) and an invitation for offers to dance (9.6s or lower.)


Added to PC; dance all night:

Image
9.8: Bloodshot and HARDcorps 14 Grampa
now my previous 9.6 is available to a new home

Image
9.6: Harbinger 25 Chen
highest graded! I was bummed initially because I thought I had a 9.8; stings because I also have a CBCS 9.6 originally from jadensai which I will examine as a candidate for resubmission with pressing

Image
9.8: Quantum & Woody 5 McKone
pretty stoked about this one—I can’t seem to find this on census; only one?

Image
9.8 Quantum & Woody 0: Goat Zdarsky
my kids and I totally adore this one; they grew up with My Little Pony comics! We would always admire the variant cover photos on the inside back cover of IDW MLP books. In an alternate (drunken) universe, this could have been one of them

Image
9.8 About 15 or so less-notable 1:10 - 1:25 2012-2013 XO Manowar, Harbinger, Bloodshot, and Eternal Warrior enter my field of dance partners


Soon to appear on the Snakepit Trading Post; always ready to dance:

Image
9.8 Archer & Armstrong 25 Califiore
VERY photogenic, attractive pic!


The dance is over; somebody call these guys a ride:

Image
9.6 Harbinger 2 Braithwaite
second failed attempt at a 9.8; two left feet. Does anybody here have a second copy?

Image
9.6 Harbinger Wars 1 Zircher Variant
this one came from vodkalyn, I think, and I really thought this book was my ticket to Harbinger Wars CGC registration; I may have one more on the sidelines looking to dance, but it’s probably no better than 9.2

Ya know, I do have that Bloodshot #3 extra I'd be willing to trade for. We just gotta find one worth trading. I won't go after your Grampa, as that is one stellar book (and I already have it in 9.8), but what else do you have from that Bloodshot run (2012) in any grade?

Also, I do have a 9.8 X-O Manowar #15 1:50 Kotaki corrected version (keeping my sig series, its my precious!) I can throw in there, if you have something like a Bloodshot #18 Hamner or one of the #25's (even consider raw state)
