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.

By far the worst I've ever done in one of these. I'm trading in my comics to buy a new pair of glasses!
I agree!!

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!

I think a 9.6 was right on the money. Corners are too soft and there’s some spine stress. Thanks for posting Jeff!

7.0 range for me. Still a very nice book

5 points, 2 bullseyes. I was too harsh on the SW8, gave it a 7.0.
@Jesse-Lee Same for me! Really surprised at the outcome. I thought CGC hits harder on rusted staples

5.0 max.
I’ll agree with @scburdet I have a 6.0 copy that I cracked out of its holder and it looks a bit better than this one. Awesome book either way!

Nailed that flash AND spidey 79… half a grade off on the rest aside from secret wars 8… really good learning opportunity as I had no clue how the rust would affect the overall grade

Hello all,
cool little book for the PC. First time I ever own something like this so no clue how to place it as far as grade wise. What I’m seeing besides normal wear and tear is what appears to be a booger? On the front cover as well as some stain spots on the back.
Let me know your thoughts.
thanks in advance!

6.5 for me. Too many spine issues that you can’t ride on hopes and dreams of a press eliminating
-
Top staple shouldn’t affect the grade at all as long as it’s a) attached to the book b) not rusted. You got yourself a nice looking Bronze Age book here.. probably put it in the NM range (9.0 or better)

Hey David,
possible to see the inside or does it look good? With the deep spine tics and staining on the back cover, I’m going with 7.0 range with 7.5 at best.
thanks for posting. Love this issue!

Really not doing well this contest… bit of tough luck but did manage two bullseyes this round and have an average of 1 per round.
if hindsight is 50/50 and the glass is half full, I’ll take it!

This is a wonderful book!
9.0/9.2 for me

☝️ this. Anecdotally, high volume books can get scrutinized more.

I’m torn between 9.0/9.2 as I’m seeing some tiny defects and CGC sees this book a lot.

I don't see why this book doesn't get a 9.2. Most of the creases aren't color breaking.
You’re right though. Feels as though CGC has been more lenient. It’ll be interesting to see what it comes back as. I’m honestly just going to put my educated guess at 9.2 as well

8.0-8.5
I’m gonna agree with mephistopheles and take a shot at 8.5… would imagine CGC is seeing more of this book due to spec on the movie in a few months and x-men 97 success. Nice book though I love this issue!
-
8.0 range imo…. CGC has probably seen this book the most… feel like that BC is going to hurt the grade.
-
Can’t wait to see what this comes back as… I would lose my noodle if it gets a 7.0

Such a nice book… this is giving me the itch to upgrade mine to a high grade newsstand
