Pangolin Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 It was graded very fine when I bought it at the end of the eighties for $7. I understand that comics grading is not the same now as 30 years ago. Thank you for your time, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I conservatively gave a 7 because of the crease on bottom right (around spider-man arm) is a major defects. I have a follow-up question to any of you : What is your opinion on page color for this comic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, based on the whiteness of the word bubbles on the page pic you provided (holy alliteration, Batman), I'd say CR/OW or OW at best ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I concur - nice looking copy - that yellow is still potent !... doesn’t look wrinkly either so I’m not certain a press would bring it up or not - the right corner doesn’t look straight though ...general marvel wear ?

This comic stayed 99,99 % of his life since 1988 in a dark and dry place. I think this is why the colors of the cover are still beautiful.

comicginger1789 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 7.0-7.5 I would say. Lovely looking book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lions Den Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 7.0 or 7.5 seems like a pretty fair estimate. And believe it or not, those pages actually look pretty nice...I could see Off-white to White. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motor City Rob Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I think 7.0 to 7.5. Something looks a little bit odd with the right side of the cover. Is it wavy? The appearance is as if it is not cut very well, but could be the angle at which the picture is taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krismusic Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I would be at a 7.0 as there is a color breaking crease on FC edge near spiderma's arm and the spine has a bit of ticks as well as bends. specially near punishers boots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
