[Silver Surfer]

At first I'd say 9.4 because its square bound but that book is a smoker - 9.6.

[Aces]

9.4 with a shot at 9.6!

 

Hey divadrabnud, I didn't recognize you without your shirt on.

 

[nik]

9.4 with a shot at 9.6!

 

 

For sure

[VintageComics]

Hey Prof...you don't really need an opinion do ya?

Is that ink transfer on the back cover? Not sure how much is allowed after 9.2...but with that and the soiling, and no hidden flaws...easy 9.4.

[Comicdey]

9.4

 

Nice Copy. Might be higher as a square bound, but probably too "dirty" on the back.

[Sal]

what's that going across IM's foot on the FC? glare? eraser marks (oh i hope not)?

 

the LRC on the back has a twinge, and i hope that colour smudge is more pronounced in the scan than in person.

 

at least a 9.2 but with 9.6 potential. of course if that faintness on the FC is something other than my imagination, this will be much lower. i would guess

Just your imagination . . . I've had to switch temporarily to photobucket.com for hosting, and needless to say the 250k limit causes some loss of detail.

Yes, it's ink transfer on the back cover.

9.4 with a shot at 9.6!

 

 

For sure

 

2nd question is, of course, is there a high enough demand for this issue to warrant slabbing as an economy?

She's hot! Some brazillian babe

[uclapeterg]

9.4/9.6. Great cover! CGC doesn't care that much about dirt on a back cover of a squarebolund.

Is this a reprint of Iron Man & Sub Mariner #1?

[verygoodplus]

No, it reprints three ToS stories, including the Sub-Mariner crossover in 80, plus the second part of that crossover from TtA 82.

[CW]

Ink transfer on this book is less than the amount on a 9.8 modern I have.
