It scared me when I saw he was holding an X-Men comic. I feared he would force me to read it :sick:

was a 2.5 slabbed version prior to crackage....detached one staple cover.........and beautiful. Pages that stick out are from one interior wrap that's a bit odd, but all the other pages are tucked in nicely.

I saw that book about ten years ago (pre-CGC). Ed Jaster had it for sale. It is a Beauty. The colors on it are out of this world (maybe the best I've ever seen on that book). But the tracing is visible (very light though). I just remember that the price was hefty.

Thanks for the info. I'm hoping it stays in my collection for a long time. (thumbs u

 

To be fair, the book does also have a small corner tear on the back cover, which also affects the overall grade.

I was disappointed when this came back a 7.0. I purchased it raw from Metro as an 8.5. I guess that light pencil tracing really knocked down the grade. :frustrated:

Pink Pages? On purpose? Never heard of such...how does this compare to Tan?

They were actually made that way for some Fox books.
