That would be correct sir.  I saw the notes and looked at it and still can't see it. :(

I thought tear seals would get a "conserved grade". (shrug)

I KNOW!  My best guess is that because it was a C and not an A that it was non-professional or the material was bad.  I can see where it must be, but it just looks like a crease from the outside.  This is the C criteria:

  • Material used: glue, pen, marker, white out, white paper to fill missing pieces
  • Piece fill obvious at arm’s length
  • Bad color matching, use of pen or marker. Bleed through evident
  • Cover cleaning resulting in washed out/speckled colors, moderate cockling and/or ripples
  • New staple holes created upon reinsertion, or non-comic book staples used
  • Married cover/pages poorly attached with non-professional materials

Not sure what I can do about it except live with it and look at the sharp cover.  :eyeroll:

Acquired a nice upgrade to my Power Comics 3 this weekend. Special thanks to @bounty_coder for letting this beauty go even though it was not at the show or for sale. What he got in its place was magical as well.
