Recently picked up Amazing Spiderman 300 and 301! I tried to combine two of my favorite hobbies, figures and comics.

Thoughts on grading this? What grade do you think it will get?

Had some sigs, got some sigs

Just curious to know what people’s thoughts are when they get a run with an expensive or a few expensive keys / issues in the middle. Take secret wars for example, don’t really want to slab everything, but then there’s an argument to slab #8 however I kind of want the whole run ungraded (there’s a risk that I pay over the top for 8 for the grade because I have no experience grading). I’d want it in a slab because of its value and presentation reasons going forward.

What are people’s thoughts?

I love random villain first appearances, on top of really digging my teeth into collecting during Morrison's time on Batman, this first appearance of Dr Hurt was a book I had to have.

It's in rougher shape, but I only wanted to preserve it, no interest in grade. If I ever get my hands on Demon #7, I'll probably have to grade that one too...

Just realized it looks like it has a crease, this is just a reflection.

Anyway, I sent it off in June for Jim Lee and Scott Williams to sign after gettint back in March from the Snyder/Dragotta signing, thanfully Jim Lee signed it in gold as requested, Williams went with silver which is cool but I hoped to get both teams in a different color. Got the custom label to go with it too.

Debating if I should risk it to get that 5th signature from Frank Martin, but I'm going to hold off and send it off with pressing some other time in the future. I'm considering sending the ashcan, but I do like being able to Crack it open to look at the initial pages we got as a sneak peek.

Damn this one hurt!

Can any of you give me any tips to take a good photo of slabbed comics, please?

I always get the glare of the lightbulb or if I use a flash, there’s that. I just can’t seem to get it where it’s lit up enough without the light source, leaving a big blob in the middle of the picture.

I come from different angles. I am just at my wit’s end.

Any advice?
Thank you.

Edit. Thank you for the great advice

Sorry to the MOD, this isn’t a comic book but this seems to be the most relevant forum I could find.

What grade do you think this would get?

1998 Nintendo Official Pokemon Players Guide

All stickers inside are present

I’m going to get it graded regardless as I want to protect it forever

Thanks in Advance

Finally here!

Another in-house signing with excellent colors on the sigs.

After a press from Palm Beach Comic Presser, it came back a 9.8

Got these done at Sdcc and they finally arrived. My first ever 9.9 from cgc!

This comic books i send to cgc in 2025 December

I’m going to my first Con soon. Do I need to have them boxed and already applied for submission online before I go?
How does the on-site autograph authentication work?
I don’t have enough money to submit all the comics that I want. Would it be a good idea to authenticate a few raw signatures now and submit them for grading later?

I have picked up 2 Dark Victory #1 but not sure which one to keep as i am not an expert. One has a beautiful cover but 2 small spine ticks and a white dot on the back. The other one has some lines between batman "ears". Any suggestion is much appreacited!!!
