PGM: The Walking Dead #1

I have no idea how to grade modern books. I've never bought a modern slab so I don't even have anything for reference. Any and all opinions would be greatly appreciated. Also, if you could tell me why you've deducted points, that would help me in the future. Thanks guys.

8.0-8.5

The streak on the front, the largish spine nick in the middle and the bottom corner in the back are the main three faults. An 8.0 is pretty harsh, but I saw a WD 1 worse than this in Philly sitting in a 9.4 holder.

 

Personally I'd say 8.5-9.0

Thanks guys, yeah the "scuffing" is probably the worst thing about it. It's flat and tight and "feels" Near Mint, if that makes sense,

 

I'm not sure how CGC grades "scuffing" and that sort of thing. From what I've seen, though, they're not uber tough on it....

9.0

had a book come back last week with almost the exact scuff on a spiderman 361, i got a 7.5

9.0

I have had books with worse flaws at 9.4. The color rub on the front is what would probably hurt this book the most. One stress mark on the spine, and a slightly impacted corner don't help, but from what I see, a 9.2 isn't out of the question.

Thanks guys for all your opinions - really appreciate it.
