One, small pen-tip sized impact bend/ding into the front cover, just inside of Terrax’s right foot. Back cover is pretty nice. Very light bend, near LRC area along bottom edge.

  3. Doctor Strange 169 (Copy B)     7.0 (restored)
    Asking Price: $250

    A later-1990s ebay purchase, where the seller did not disclose the color hits on the spine. From the ‘you live and learn’ collection. Pretty nice looking copy with lighter edge wear along all edges. Good color and gloss. But you can see the color hits from the photo showing the inside front cover. Back cover is really nice with just a light corner bend and light soiling.

  9. Fantastic Four 53     4.0
    Asking Price: $95

    Looks nice for the technical grade, but a good amount of light ‘spider-web’ creasing along the spine side. Top staple has dug into the cover a little bit. Corners all have some color loss and light creases. Back cover is really clean. Small edge tear on open edge, upper middle. Two small spots of residue, top edge of back cover. Then - a ‘thumb?’ sized stain right on the open edge of the book - right where someone would likely place their thumb when paging through the book... perhaps someone had a nice mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich & they got a bit of mayo on their thumb when reading this one in the early summer days of 1966.

    Spine has a lot of stress, but staples holding steady. Corners all soft and have abrasions or creases. Cover is pretty clean, except for 2 light vertical/diagonal creases in the lower half of the book, left and right sides.
    Back cover has soiling and spine wear. Note two tears at bottom staple area. Small piece out, bottom edge, and some light tears on the bottom edge as well. ULC nearly has a corner chip out.

    What the... another DC?!
    Nice copy. Excellent color and gloss. Two light spine stresses at the top staple in the ‘Kirby’s Here’ burst, ncb.
    Top and bottom corners of the spine are soft. URC and LRC are nice, but not 9.4 sharp. Very small, light rub/abrasion(?) just to the right of the ‘Try the Boom Tube If You Dare’ word bubble. Back cover excellent.
    Evidence of one tiny moisture drop on interior of back cover, toward the bottom right corner.
