I suspect he'd still be killing people.  I like the old-style, skull-in-the-P Punisher font.

Ok, thanks for the grades.  I'm surprised at the 7-8 range.  I had given it a 5.5 with the color-breaking crease, which made me think about a color touch-up resto.  A possible 8 with a press makes it worth slabbing.  Thanks again.

Bone 3, 1st print.  I didn't know I had it. Bone sat in a crammed in a long box, unbagged and unboarded, for 30 years and was recently discovered.  It's nobody's fault but mine.

Is a restoration possible for the color break on the crease? Thank you for your time and evaluation.

Just the name "Sad Sack" is hilarious and they would look great mounted and hanging on a wall, too. I'd laugh every time I walked by them.

It is a cool book, and I may get it slabbed in case overall demand increases in the future and so I can hang it on the wall during the holidays. Value wise it's a wash (at best) right now to do so.  I'm new to estimating grades of books, so I was hoping for better than 6-7.  The rarity thing was a new guy's attempt at humor.

Thanks for the grades!  If I submit it for grading I'll have the only CGC graded copy in the 6-7 range, which would make it a very rare book.

Thank you.  I guess posting this book a few weeks ago would've been more appropriate...

Thanks for the welcome and thanks for the responses!  Yeah, definitely not a Kubrick sig.  Random marks or inventory marks certainly a possibility. Unfortunately, a defaced Rima in otherwise super condition. I'm gonna hang her on a wall anyway, because the cover art is still pretty awesome looking.

Thank you.  I'll remove the plastic.  I'm kind of curious to take a look inside.

Hi. I have a beautiful copy of Rima #1 with scrawling on the front cover.  I am perplexed as to how a book could be so well preserved and yet somehow someone was allowed to mark up the cover, so I thought it may be a signature.  I acquired the book at a yard sale 30 years ago, put it in a box and recently took a look at it.  Any thoughts?  Thank you.

I'm thinking about sending in Black Kiss 8 and 9 for grading. As they are now the books are sealed in manufacturer's plastic, due to the graphic content.  If I submit the books for grading, should I remove the plastic prior to shipping?  Thank you.
