Honestly Bob, I think the grade is spot on. It has some slight foxing on the back cover and a few tiny blemishes here and there. The colors are brilliant though. 8.5 is perfect for this book.

I can't agree.  That book easily qualifies for a VG+, per Overstreet guidelines.

8.5 VERY FINE+ (VF+): Fits the criteria for Very Fine but with an additional virtue or small accumulation of virtues that improves the book’s appearance by a perceptible amount.


 

8.0 VERY FINE (VF): An excellent copy with outstanding eye appeal. Sharp, bright and clean with supple pages. A comic book is this grade has the appearance of having been carefully handled. A limited accumulation of minor bindery/printing defects is allowed. Cover is relatively flat with minimal surface wear beginning to show, possibly including some minute wear at corners.
