Thanks for the gentle reminder. I haven’t forgotten these two and took a break for them for a bit to help catch up on some of the other variant submissions. I’m going to pick these back up in a Cpl days. The WCA one I may need to enlist the help of some of the experts on here because I am almost out of leads.

I already have the updated variant submission so we’re good for now. No need to resubmit.


I'll suggest you or someone who's a member of the CGC forums post in their copper age comics forum ( https://boards.cgccomics.com/forum/37-copper-age-comic-books/ ) and ask about the WCA ann 2 (include a pic of course). There's collectors there who have nearly everything or know about most variants, be it UPC boxes or cover art etc.. I tried some more searches and google image searches, but only find the newsstand, year of the reader, or a blank/black box version, which I'm not sure was published or was a pre-publication version. I was wondering if it maybe came in one of those repackaged multi-packs later on, lots of times they have 'exclusive' UPC boxes for some reason, but you'd think there'd be a pic somewhere by now. Haven't tried searching something like '1987 captain america upc box' to see what others may have that and give a clue as to how rare they are or how they were distributed. will leave that to others, got other stuff to do. good luck casper..]]> Fri, 14 Jan 2022 23:43:16 GMT https://www.comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=16710 Message from collectibleshop Ewfthompson wrote:
Appreciate it. I'll try the scan. Never been inclined to put my books in a scanner, but sounds like that's the way to go!
Will use the missing variant link and hold tight.
Thanks!


well, a scan won't hurt it, and it's not worth anything anyway. resizing the scan is the other important part.]]> Fri, 14 Jan 2022 23:31:32 GMT https://www.comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=16710 Message from Ewfthompson Will use the missing variant link and hold tight.

Just wanting to follow up here. I'm the one who has uploaded this variant that no one seems to be able to find. I'll try to upload a better quality image. If anyone else has advice, I welcome it. Otherwise, can someone tell me what I need to do to get this variant shown here so I can tick it in my collection?
Casper has been incredibly patient with me, so my thanks. I apologize for any problems I'm creating, but also kinda hoping that this is an unusual or undocumented variant from my childhood collecting days. I've been trying to add corrections to over comic on the site as well. I like the community on this site--chose it rather deliberately.
Best,

if you haven't seen it or been told yet, this is the pic guidelines, although a bit old: https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/topic5-guidelines-for-uploading-cover-scans-to-cpg.aspx

something around 500-600px high is fine. scans are preferred (any friends or work have scanners?), but these days good phones can take good pics, but harder to get them nice and square for cropping. there's a bunch of free photo-editing sites you can find if you need them or you don't have a computer with one built-in or added to it.

so once you get a good pic and submit it using the 'report missing variant' feature, bookmark the page, and wait for it to be approved, or keep checking this thread for the notice, which they may or may not do, but casper and gilgandra are pretty good about that.]]> Fri, 14 Jan 2022 18:39:14 GMT https://www.comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=16710 Message from Ewfthompson Casper has been incredibly patient with me, so my thanks.

@Draven68.. if you can upload the Lady Death cover here, that would be great. I can only find the Naughty Edition from Sabine Rich for Exstinction Express, but that is not limited to 10 copies. So pretty psyched to see it to make sure it isnt the naughty Edition.


not sure which issue he has, but found this one on jessewichmann.com, an artist proof jeweled remark edition ltd to 10 copies.

David]]> Thu, 16 Dec 2021 22:57:59 GMT https://www.comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=16710 Message from Ronbatman There are a couple of things that could cause this.
1. Type - Needs to be .jpg .png or .gif
2. Size - 5MB max limit
3. Dimensions - Less than 1.2k


Check those things and let me know. Our system is accepting scans daily so it's isn't related to a programming issue.

It's from Jan 1987, not 1977. Just noticed that.
