Hi All,
I am trying to figure out who the artist was that drew this version of the Black Widow in the 1970's and which issues she might have appeared in? Thank you for any help on this!!

Gosh RockMeAmadeus thank you ever so much for your expertise.
I read and read all the posts and got more lost! Also sorry to everyone for the 2 copes in the post...still trying to delete one!
So would this edition be classified as a reprint? It does say 1982 inside.....or will that take us back on the merry go round!

To answer your question directly, this is almost certainly (since we have no direct evidence to prove it) a Canadian price version, made at just about the time when parity between the US and Canadian dollar was being lost, and the publishers decided to sell comics in the Canadian market at a higher price to reflect this. This book was published right in that transition period, and, more than likely, is that Canadian version. Starting with issue #5, the books (nearly always) carried a dual US/Canadian price on the covers.

So......the $5.95 version is that at least the same value as the $4.95 or is it considered not a first edition? Reason being I just found one here in the UK....

There was a discussion here without all the B.S. (at least until a certain poster showed up).

I need your help folksI have this issue of New Mutants in the Graphic Novel series (First appearance).It seems there was a reprint of this. However mine is neither the reprint at $6.95 or the original at $4.95. The cover says $5.95! what gives? Anybody know what I have here (pic attached)? Thank you so much for shedding any light on this and what it might be worth in NM?

Hi Everyone,
I live in London and would like to get a magazine size comic book graded. Does anyone know if CGC does this on the spot at the upcoming London Comic Con on the 24th May, 2019? If so any ideas on the time it would take "on spot" and cost? Thank you so much in advance,
Gabe

I have actually bought a lot of issues from Quicksilver, and the customer service and grading from Peter is spot on. They actually have issues that are perhaps under-graded slightly. Just my 2p worth!

Doesn't look like mildew/mold/foxing. Appears like wet spots, like the paper is wet, a hint of transparency or thinning at the spots. Could it be oil droplets? My guess is some liquid that drizzled on the book or manufactured that way, the roll of paper used to print the pages already having that prior to production of the book.
Thank you so much James I really really appreciate you letting me know! Have a great day
Was totally lost on this one!

Hi Guys,
I really need someones help with this. I bought a Savage Sword of Conan which was graded by the vendor as a NM+(9.6) . Everything was great until I opened the splash page. I am not sure if it is mildew or mold /foxing or a printing error. I have attached photos of the issue in question and put a normal copy as well for you to compare.
My 2 questions are:
1. Should this mildew or whatever: is it allowed on a 9.6?
2. If it is mildew I am guessing it will just get worse. Would you ask for a refund at this point and go hunting for another copy? This is on the splash page which is definitely a center piece of this issue.
Thank yo so much for any help in advance.

There is no discount for books done on-site. If you have us take them back to Florida and grade them there then the 10% discount applies.
Thanks,
Hi Gemma,
I am based in London, UK. By any chance will CGC come to any of the conventions or shows in the UK so I may submit books onsite to be graded? Thank you so much for your time!

Hi Guys,
Happy belated Christmas! Really need some help here, I have been going through a large number of my brothers comics for him, mainly Spiderman's of all titles from the early to mid Nineties. I came across a copy of Spiderman Adventures #8 but can't seem to find a value for it anywhere. I would say it is NM or perhaps an 9 if it were CGC'd maybe Thank you so much for any feedback to all the experts out there!

Aha, I see the book now on a dealer site. I thought this was a copy at a local comic shop or something.
The dealer calls it NM/NM+, and I think their grading is generally solid. At that low price point, and factoring in the sentimental value, if I were you I would probably get it as you might regret letting it go if you can't find a better one?
But the miswrap issue though, fair enough and everyone has their preferences.
Thanks again Point Five! Yeah for some reason I really struggle with miswraps to the point that I would even take a 9.6 or possibly a 9.4 over a 9.8 mis-wrap! Take care and thanks for verifying the grade for me

If the back is completely clean and tight -- remember that even a gentle crease or small discreet stain on the back would drop the book several grades -- I'd guess 9.2 to 9.4.
You mentioned sentimental value, so I can't see why you wouldn't buy the book. But if you plan to slab and you won't be satisfied with a grade that doesn't have a 9 in front of it, you'll want to scrutinize it carefully first. (Personally I would just leave it in Mylar and enjoy.)
Thank you so much for the input, I was thinking of pulling the trigger, but ideally I am going to wait as you are right it could be lower and really was looking at 9.6ish...crazy I know I need a crummy 9.6 at least
On second thoughts the misaligned spine has always been a no no and was temporarily blinded by it being cheaper but I don't think it would get 9.6 anyway now that you say 9.2-9.4. Thanks again!
Phew... I will probably try to have this CGC'd now ...Just gotta figure out how to do it from here in the UK! Have a good day
