I usually drop off at CGC when at Wondercon, but this year I had to mail due to the cancellations. Website seemed fairly easy. This is what I picked out to grade. Hope it gets there (FL) safe.
Note: One time I did submit to CGC a double cover error comic and it wasn’t noticed. I quickly called them b/f they shipped it back to me and it was corrected. With double cover error comics CGC grades the below cover and not the outer cover. I was stoked to get it back as a 9.8 newsstand, double cover error.

Quoted from PaulCoff:

Here it is. I think CGC has changed its protocols since then and now if there is an error within the book the top label is purple. I might be wrong? 008E6E24-CDB4-4259-80EF-C97C534B8A75 (resized).jpeg008E6E24-CDB4-4259-80EF-C97C534B8A75 (resized).jpeg

Also, when you get your books back from CGC look for “Newton Rings.” I don’t consider it too big of a deal. Some “slabs” show a ton of rings and others have none. Its just another aspect to look at when grading. Here are a few examples.

Another thing to consider when selecting a comic to be graded is to look for “Newsstand” or “Direct.”

Mignola is a favorite, plus I miss Breyfogle and all the work he did on Batman.
RIP Norm.
