How do you know they were dropped. I feel like if they "dropped" it they wouldn't tell you.

I'm so glad you got back the 9.8's. If they hadn't been dropped the first time, then I'm sure the whole batch might of come back 9.8. You're right about the Gambit appearances. I just picked up an Xmen annual #14 last week because of the new update. I believe I have a raw Xmen 266 in one of my long boxes. I just haven't had the time or felt like going through all of them. It's on the list. lol

Ya, I cant understand why its a less popular "opinion" that Annual 14 is firat appearance. I've heard that Marvel originally had 266 slated to come out first, but due to some sort of production issue, Annual 14 hit first. Even if that is true though, it just cements the annual being his 1st appearance and not 266. I really like them both either way!

Nice batting average on these - that Daredevil Born Again run is so good and I love that Mazuchelli cover.

speaking of full cover creases (but not from a poly) , i have a few books of a friend that were obviously folded - he said the mailman had to fold it to deliver it (apartment mailbox) and they are newsstands. I have been pressing and using a ball bearing and tack iron... the back cover is being really stubborn. I've even used the tack iron and ball bearing on the inside of the back cover because the comic was folded so that you couldn't see the back cover, which makes it easier to get the front crease out. I just want to know if it's possible to make the back cover crease undetectable? I have not used a humidity chamber yet as i have never done that... think that would help? I don't' want to keep doing the same thing if it's fruitless. The one big one is an X-Men 266 newsstand.

Will they ever correct the first appearance of Wolverine or the first appearance of venom? Both of them appeared prior to their “first appearance” as currently listed.

Whatever comes out first is the first appearance. X-Men Annual is his first appearance. Just ask - when did anyone first see him if they read every comic that came out that year as they hit shelves? There is your answer.

Fortunately I've had a dropped book by CGC! Glad you were able to fix me! I've only cracked two books out of over 1000 sent to CGG. Both were Spider-Man 1 McFarlanes, No price 9.6 and Reg Direct 9.0 where I just got really sloppy with not taking the poly crease out. I pressed out the creases, 9.8 on both. Sold both to same guy for $225 vs about $85 if I sold without cracking. Extra $50 to re-slab gambled paid off!

It's a bit risky, but what has worked for me is moderate pressure with a tack iron after a bit of humidity with the steamer. Make sure the heat isn't too high, my iron is something like 150-160F. I was able to turn a 9.6 Hulk 345 newsstand into a 9.8, The only note was "canvassing." It was a major pain and I was able to get out maybe 85% of the canvassing, but enough for the 9.8.
