  1. Hello, i recently purchased the McNiven virgin variant for Predator vs. Wolverine off a seller on ebay. I realize now that the listing photos were the pictures from CGC after being slabbed. I have only seen two of these so far and both had some issues to the cover where it almost looks like the cover rides a bit higher than the book. This is the book i purchased... This is the only other one i could find - currently on ebay ... There seems to be a common issue here with the covers for both. I am new to collecting slab and was wondering if someone could shed some light on what's going on here with these two. So, i get my package yesterday and notice that the condition was worse than the pictures showed in the original listing that the seller provided. Now i see that the photos in the listing were from CGC after the book was encapsulated and not pictures of the condition of the book while in possession of the seller. The back right corner of the cover rides higher than the rest of the book and the front right corner of the cover hangs a bit lower than the inner well. The top back cover was crunched in by the inner well. Is this fixable by a pressing and restoration. Could it be made to look pristine and centered or is this a lemon? Your thoughts and opinions will be greatly appreciated as i do not know what to do with this now because it's no longer a 9.8 and this thing was not cheap. Top back cover showing some folded crunch
