Bang on with BP

2 off with Torchy - that top right corner had me stumped

The Torchy is for sure a beautiful book, but 8.5 with the missing corner (!) is nuts. I was between 7.5 and 8.0, rolled the dice on 8.0.

With the Black Panther, did anyone think the scratch on the case (I assume) near the right edge was a crease? I really went back and forth on that.

I thought there was a color breaking crease on the right side of BP when enlarged. It must have been a scratch on the acrylic case.

I did not think the Torchy was a 8.5 more closer to 7.5/8.0

 

LOL. We think alike!

Thought I saw a fairly long crease on the back left cover too.  I got killed this round.

...the Torchy at 7.0.  If anything I thought I had been too generous.  That 8.5 shocks me.

The one thing I'll say is that the spine on that book looks incredible. I figured that was worth a 'GA bump', but apparently even 8.0 wasn't enough!
