(EDITOR’S NOTE: PM Library Editor Wally Monk had a friend drop off six comics with a CBCS representative on June 1st, 2019 at the Lost Nation Comic Con. All six comics were set for pressing, and four of them also required some sort of signature authentication. This continuing article will follow the experience with CBCS from start to finish, the last installment being pictures of the slabbed and shipped comic books.)

It’s been 46 days since my comics were submitted and they appeared in my dashboard finally yesterday. Based on my discussions via email with two people involved with CBCS, I am going to assume that pressing of these comics is done and they are now in the grading queue.

If my assumption is wrong, it’s going to be a really long wait.

Despite numerous errors on the invoice, a CBCS rep responded immediately to my email inquiry about these errors, indicating that they are default invoice settings and will be cleared up by the graders as the books are evaluated.

More updates as my comics make their way through the system.

As always, I am – Wally (AKA Paint Monk)
