<description><![CDATA[just to cover the bases, if you submitted your own pic, it needs to be square-on,  out of the bag, and cropped to the edges of the comic, no pro-graded, and with no watermarks. if you used a comics.org pic then you should be fine.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Yes, those are the issues to which I was referring. Thank you for the link and for responding. I did a test to try to submit the volume that I own, #2, which reprints EC's "Weird Science" issues 6-10. Hope that works.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I know they're different titles, but I blazed by the link in your post and missed seeing the Fantasy one, sorry about that. Always try to find and post pics or links to pics, it really helps. I thought I had found the right ones on comics.org (the Weird Science Fantasy ones) but just searched again and found these, which I think is what you want: <a href="https://www.comics.org/series/11236/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.comics.org/series/11236/</a> . bookmark that site for future use, it comes in handy.<br/>if those are correct, please confirm, and an admin can get to adding those at some point. Or, if you want to practice submitting stuff yourself, you can submit those using the 'report missing issue' link at the very bottom of the right column on the Weird Science series page, <a href="https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/weird-science/xlvq" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/weird-science/xlvq</a> . you can copy the pics from the comics.org page to use.  click the 'gallery' link under the pic on that comics.org page to see all the covers, and click those for bigger pics to copy and upload to CPG.<br/><br/>have fun..<br/><i>edited by collectibleshop on 10/20/2023</i>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Actually, Weird Science and Weird Science Fantasy are two different titles. I included the link to Weird Science Fantasy in my original post as an example of one of Gemstone's titles that includes the "Annuals" category as well as a link to Weird Science, which does not include "Annuals."]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[It appears it's Weird Science FANTASY that's the annuals you're looking for? Go here, click the Annual tab for #1,2, and see if the 'regular' 1-6 are what else you're looking for: <a href="https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/weird-science-fantasy/xlvs" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/weird-science-fantasy/xlvs</a><br/><br/><br/>if you use the Issue Type drop down menu and choose Annual and Weird Fantasy for the title then the above title comes up.<br/><br/>you might also want to search for EC Archives for reprints too, by both Dark Horse and Gemstone.<br/><i>edited by collectibleshop on 10/19/2023</i>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Hello! <br/><br/>In the early 1990s, Gemstone Publishing reprinted full runs of classic EC Comics titles, as individual issues and also in collections that spanned four or five issues at a time in a square-bound, softcover "Annual" format. The CPG database includes the annuals for titles like:<br/>	"Weird Fantasy" (1992-1996, Vol. 1) -- see link: <a href="https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/weird-fantasy/xlwu" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/weird-fantasy/xlwu</a><br/>and  "Weird Science-Fantasy" (1992-1994, Vol. 1) -- see link: <a href="https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/weird-science-fantasy/xlvs" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/weird-science-fantasy/xlvs</a><br/><br/>However, the CPG database appears to be missing these "Annual" format compilations for other titles, including "Weird Science" (1992-1997, Vols. 1-5) -- see link: <a href="https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/weird-science/xlvq" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/weird-science/xlvq</a><br/><br/>I've copied the submission post format below and have filled it out to the best of my ability (I don't have many of these issues but wanted to add them to my "Wants" list.")<br/><br/><br/><br/><span style="color:rgb(62, 62, 62)"><span style="font-family:Geomanist, Roboto, sans-serif">01.
