vintagetorque Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 (edited) PGM Giant Size Xmen 1 (yes, another one ) This is my first time doing this. I hope I do it right..... I was considering dropping this off at CGC at SDCC. BUT, second inspection I noticed the small imperfection below Wolverine claws and the "pinpoint" in Storm. I had already seen the problem in the price area. It's these 3 things that are noticeable. I look forward to hearing from the community. I am not sure how many images are allowed. I don't have a scanner. Edited June 16, 2017 by vintagetorque Trying to add more images Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tbone911t Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 To me looks like a pretty nice book. I'd say it's still worth dropping off for sure. I'm not a pressing expert but perhaps someone who is will chime in. Looks like a perfect candidate to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADAMANTIUM Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 I'd say 6.5 some of the area in the price part I don't know how a press would react there, storm is a Pinhole? press won't help, the Wolverine claw's one I think a press would help, but again I don't know if your got it pressed how it would help up by the price... sigh either way I'd say this is a decent 6.5 hopefully someone comes along who does a lot of pressing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redgar-red Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 I would see what it looked like after dry cleaning and pressing -- I would think it would be in the 8.0 range. Maybe I'm too generous, but it is a nice looking book. vintagetorque 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good for you! That's on the higher side that what most people were guessing so you must be happy. I don't personally own the Giant Size issue but it's on my greatest hits list. Next up for me is X-Men 94.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
