  1. Book looks great Jeff.. I’d probably give it 9.2-9.6
  2. I use Jeff over at comic spa. You can reach out to him via Instagram
  3. The silverfish attack on the CF is really interesting. any plans to sub this book to get graded? Would be interested to see how they treat that damage
  4. I think with the right presser doing the work, you would be amazed how much a difference it’ll make on this book. Perhaps an aqueous bath will solve the “moisture” issue. current state I would put it in the 4.0 range
  5. If you are trading it, I think it’s fair to call it a VF copy (8.0 range)
  6. Bingo. Raw books in a nice Mylar with a top loader look brilliant imo. But of course, collect what you like!
  7. If it’s detached, then that will hurt your chances with overall grade.
  8. How does the inside look? judging by the front and back cover, VG seems appropriate
  9. Interested in seeing if anyone has any further perspective on the stains thanks everyone!
  10. Unless it’s iron man #1… I wouldn’t bother pressing and grading. You won’t get your ROI but I do really like the cover on issue 3… a nice Mylar bag will do these raw copies wonders.
  11. 9.0-9.2 seeing a few bends on the backside top of book
  12. With the right press work, I can see this getting as high as an 8.5. Couple color breaking tics but that’s all I saw. Nice book
  13. Whoohoo! Finally got the results everyone was anticipating. I’m sure you are happy with the blue label vs getting the green…
  14. Take a stab at it for 9.6… CGC has seen this book a million times. Maybe they overlook the staple issues and gift you a higher grade than anticipated.
  15. I agree. It’s in the 7.0 range as it stands. A clean and press might get you a 7.5
  16. As it stands, it’s probably in the 8.0 range (more 8.5) but with a proper press this book is so eye appealing I don’t see it getting any lower than 9.0 for sure. Awesome book!
  17. I think a 9.6 was right on the money. Corners are too soft and there’s some spine stress. Thanks for posting Jeff!
  18. 7.0 range for me. Still a very nice book
