PGM: AVENGERS #85

[comicgrinder]

Now, I am not the best at grading on 9.2 or above, but this looks a little better than that....a couple other opinions would be great

I would say 9.2 based on the slight blunting of some of the corners and was appears to be s very small crease ULTEBC.

thanks Joey

I'd say 8.5 at the most.

 

The corners are all too dinged. The top corner at the spine looks like it

had a pretty hard knock and looks like it is a bit folded. The bottom of the

spine has a dig out, and is missing some color from the edge from the spine

to about an inch in. the other two corners are a bit rounded. There are CB

creases on the spine near Goliath's head and 1/2 way down near the lamp

post. Small chip missing out of the corner on the back cover.

 

Way to many little things to be 9 or above (IMHO)

Hmmm... OK, I still don't see it as > 9.0 though. The color loss on the bottom edge,

the spine breaks and the chip from the rear cover still there.

 

[edit] And looking back... is that a small pin-hole sized chip right above V?

(could be a scanner artifact)

COLOR LOSS

[badfeet-migration]

Yeah, right along the edge by the guy laying on the ground. *shrug* maybe it isn't

that noticeable in-hand, but I see it on the scan.

 

Buy, hey, I may be wrong. I'm a pretty harsh grader (even on my own stuff...)

Let us know what grade you get if you submit it.

You guys seem to be going out of your way to give Badfeet a hard time. You asked for his opinion, that's what he's giving you.

 

Welcome to the boards Badfeet!

 

Anyways, I'll go 9.0 on this book. Sharp copy, cool cover.

9.0

[comicgrinder]

your right, sorry Badfeet for bustin your chops

[CAP Freak]

9.2!!

[drewincanada]

I'm in the 9.0 camp - simply due to the two color-breaking spine stress lines, and what appears to be a small color-breaking crease on the front cover in the top left corner. I agree that that corner looks like it was bent at some point.

9.0
