Hot take: I dropped $80 on a graded copy of X-Men #129 and it's just sitting in a box

Honestly, I got caught up in the hype at the Portland comic con last year and bought it slabbed. I thought it would be cool to own a key issue, but I never even look at the thing because you can't read it. Ngl, it feels like I paid for plastic instead of a comic. Has anyone else bought a graded book and then just felt kinda dumb about it?

My buddy calls his slabbed ASM 300 a paperweight.

You're not alone, it's a pretty common regret.

Yeah, my slabbed books are just fancy doorstops, lmao.
