8.5 (thumbs u

[rza808]

I will go with 8.0 thats a nice book

[thehumantorch]

8.5/9.0 I'm wondering what the smudge on the top left corner back cover is?

[ARK]

8.5 Niice book!

[comicsguy-migration]

Yeah, that smudge on the back confuses me. It almost looks like it was a production defect. But that just doesn't make sense to me so I'm confused. It doesn't look like crayon or marker or chocolate cake or anything.... That smudge is one of the major reasons I wanted to post the book to see what folks think. Thanks for looking!

[rza808]

Do you mean the paint at the top of the book's bc? That had something to do with distribution or something in that manner. I saw a fingerprint on the fc. Is it part of a bigger smudge?

The green mark on the top back edge. Is that ink? Distributor's overspray?

 

Regarding the comment about cropped, the bottom edge does look suspicious, but there's no way to say anything definitive about it, without having the book in hand.

 

Given no resto, I'd say this looks like a 9.2 book.

Lower back corner has a heavy crease, very nice copy 8.5.

8.0/8.5 The finger print on the FC irks me though. Still a sweet copy!

[comicsguy-migration]

Yeah, I was talking about the top of the back cover. I'm not sure what that smudge is. I don't think it's paint because it seems the same thickness there as the rest of the cover and that's why it confuses me. The finger print on the front cover is not part of a bigger smudge...that fingerprint KILLS me!

[TFL-migration]

8.5 IMHO. Nice book!

[comicsguy-migration]

For those of you that want to check your grading on this book, this book is coming back from CGC with a 9.0 with no cleaning or pressing. I'm pleasantly surprised!

[rza808]

Wow scans always make dark covers look worse than they really are tho. I didnt think it would be higher than 8.5 but yipee for you

Yeah, I was wondering how the dark cover would effect the grading. It really seems harder for me to grade black covers...I guess the defects stand out more...

[Old Fashion PB and J]

I crushed it for the finger print. Congrats though!
