Most of my collection is Bronze aged, so I usually don't get to hang out with you guys.    This just came back today from CGC.  I've had it since the early 70's and I just wanted to share it.  I think it is one of my favorite covers.

Good thing Medusa wore a mask, otherwise people might recognize her when she's walking down the street...with 20 foot long hair!

Another beauty!

A Cat book I bought as a kid because of Wally Wood's inks over Marie Severin's pencils. Still love the lines and curves. Pun intended.

Gene Colan. Fun stuff

OK, so joke all you want, but I think this cover is great...

I love how Millie's nose is drawn. Archie comics used this style for years on all their women.

Nice brother  

No insult intended but is the spine split? I'm thinking of slabbing a book with a fully split spine. It's a book I've been hunting for years, and in the highest grade I can afford right now. But I want to take care of it, it looks beautiful in the Mylar, but I want it slabbed. Has anyone had a split spine slabbed? Would the book or cover separate once in the slab?

I bought it the day my son was born, it'll be his in 16 years, 5 months.  2034

Fully split, as in pages as well as cover? Due to brittleness? Likely 0.5 in that case. Less severe, dunno but you may have a shot. What is the book?

Here's one I've rediscovered. Until Captain Sprocket appears on Riverdale I'll say the back cover is more desirable.  

I had the book advertised on that back cover! Lots of Archie SA GGA goodness in that one. Sold fast when I offered it.

Grader notes are 

multiple crease cover breaks color

Hope this answers your question. thanks, it came with a friend, Avengers #2

Great books, low grade but great books. As you can see I read them, often.

Cool book, very nice copy. And while I'm also a fan of this little run myself, this one belongs over in Bronze.

Just the spine of the cover is split, the book itself is tight and ow.

Worth a call; you may have a shot at better than 0.5 I'd think. Especially if not brittle too.

I wasn't sure about that, 20 cent issues are Silver correct? Bronze starts with GL & GA 76 /1970 but is there a hard starts line?  or is subject matter? Well encase I'm wrong here is another book which I'm sure is Silver.
