  1. I wouldn't press a book this old. 5.0 seems a fair grade. Could go a grade higher nowadays and I doubt it'd be downgraded.
  2. If it's in the grade range you think it is I don't think the flaw is likely to downgrade the book any further. Of course, full pics of both covers and disclosure of any hidden flaws is needed for an (accurate) grade assessment.
  3. I'm thinking 9.0/9.2 mainly because of that creasing on the front cover. With the yellow artwork it's tough to tell if it's light reflectivity or color break. If it's the latter then the grade may go down into the VF range. Perhaps an interesting story - the Walking Dead twice got me back into comics. I collected from the age of 10 in 1985 until around 1997. I've always been a big horror movie buff and an old school zombie head. In 2003 I heard about the Walking Dead series and picked up the first trade paperback then issue one somewhere at I think cover price. I was back in the game until around 2010 or so. I came back to the hobby the third time in 2019 when I heard that the Walking Dead series was ending. I picked up issues 192 and 193 and once again I had the bug. Thanks for posting.
  4. Maybe more a 3.0 but I'll say a 3.5 because of what the book is. Very cool. Thanks for sharing.
  5. The 2nd and cheaper. Both present nearly the same. I'd prefer a book with no staining too.
  6. Please provide back cover pics and let us know if this is creasing.
  7. What a great thread. Makes me wanna dive into these waters...

  9. Agreed. I thought 5.5 with a grade higher being fair.
  10. Would've said 9.4. Corners looked a little soft for it's certified grade. Thanks for updating the forum.
  11. Would've said 9.6 if pressed. Where the heck was I early February?
  12. 9.2 at least. Probably would max at 9.6 were the four winds be in your favor.
