I may have this pressed at some point. Post it here meantime.

Yeah pretty sure he was art director at the time. I vaguely recall reading about Stan having Romita redraw Cap America face on at least one occasion. Maybe an Avengers issue I don't know ...but definitely involving Cap. I wish I could remember the details, but it had to do with Stan hating the way the face looked to the point of demanding a redraw. That DD cover pretty much screams Kane except for that Talon face apparently. 

 I might be wrong, but I think Don Heck was involved somehow with that cover.

Matt Murdock screams Don Heck to me, and a bit in Widow's face as well.

Nothing about how poorly that face is done says Romita to me.

I'm pretty sure this may be a 9.6 today.

A book you don't see very often.  I have a 9.4 as well, and I haven't seen a blue label 9.6 in quite a while.

The weird thing about this issue is that there really is nothing "3-in-1" about it. Only two stories and they just picked three random characters to make it "3-in-1". LOL

Lee's Comics in Mountain View, CA had a stack of these on the counter for $5 each. Unfortunately, my buddy searched through the stack first and got a 9.6. Boo.

When was that?

1992 or so. They also had a stack of Forever People #1 and New Gods #1. It was a good day.

[WernerVonDoom]

Here's another one from that same stack. Damage to overhang I suppose hammered the grade.

Wow, if all 7.0s looked as nice as that, I'd have been willing and able to own a lot more slabs!

The back cover overhang (you can see it on the upper right) is creased about 2-3". I guess CGC doesn't ignore overhang.

They do not. Can you show me how bad the overhang is?

Gotta disagree with you there. That is a beautiful book.

If you're a 9.8 Subby run collector nows not the time to be selective.
