8.5 if corner crease is color breaking, otherwise 9.0

Reasonable force? Undoubtedly, yes...

4.5

8.5

7.0 as is - 7.5/8.0 after C&P

2.5 I find it interesting that ‘top bodybuilding authority’ Ben Rebhuhn needed to use a heavily retouched photo to prove how good his ‘system’ is...

9.4

9.4/9.6 with press

+1

9.0

x2 - - C&P to 6.0 if the stain/soiling on the BC can be cleaned.

7.0

8.01 - it’s like bidding a dollar over someone on the Price Is Right...

Correct, it’s a production flaw, also 9.6 I have seen this flaw on 9.8’s so it won’t impact the grade on this book.

8.0 - - “It's pronounced 'Fronkensteen.' ”

Very nice... 9.2 at least.

Doc Ock has always been my favorite Spidey villain. So my favorite villain in a four-issue story arc? That’s enough to drive a young kid into a Starburst and Pop Rocks sugar frenzy! I have two nice issues from that arc. Second tonight is ASM 56. Spine stresses, corner rounding, light color rub along the spine, a couple of light corner bends on the BC. Glossy cover and centerfold are tight. Thoughts and comments always appreciated...

Doc Ock has always been my favorite Spidey villain. So my favorite villain in a four-issue story arc? That’s enough to drive a young kid into a Starburst and Pop Rocks sugar frenzy! I have two nice issues from that arc. First up is ASM 55. Tanning and oxidation shadow, front and back. The overhang of the top edge of the FC is rolled so there’s some edge stress and wear. Obvious spine stresses corner creases. The top right corner has a tiny dog-ear, maybe 1/16” perhaps less. Does need a clean and press to iron out a few pressable issues. Glossy, complete and cover and centerfold firmly attached. As always, I appreciate your feedback...

6.5 press to 7.0/7.5

9.6

Slight staple tear or just staple wear? 8.0

9.4 - If the crunched and blunted corners press out could see this going to 9.8

Precisely stated... very nice book!

Agreed... there's plenty of risk and little upside here...
