A Wolverine and the X-men #4 Venom variant I am thinking of having graded.

I am a very harsh self grader, a novice grader at that though. If I see a even remotely fuzzy corner, i think its a 9.6/9.4 immediately. I have already 9.8 graded comics with fuzzy corners and other defects though. This is my most prized comic, I have two copies but this is the best one. The other is exactly the same but with a proper spine crease on the cover. Let me know what you think it might grade at? I had already taken the pictures before reading the guidelines, my bad.

 

The cover.

This is the only bit of spine crease on the back, little, if any color break. I have really magnified it with the light of my phone.

Some roll on the top left back corner

Tiny little tick on bottom left front corner, back right corner but straight and sharp.

They are all the imperfections I could find, I went over it with a fine tooth comb. The outside anyway, I am hoping the inside is all fine and intact.

That looks like a really solid book, 9.6 in the least.

 

However, I gave a friend a book we both agreed was a solid 9.6 if not a 9.8, we both agreed it was a strong 9.6, and it came back a 9.2

 

That's the way the cookie crumbles.

I'd say no lower than a 9.4. Possibly 9.6. Great book!
