Galen130 Posted October 26, 2021 Author Share Posted October 26, 2021 Regular edition copy of Secrets of the Valiant Universe #1. This is a one-shot comic, featuring numerous Valiant characters. There is light blunting of the spine corners, as well as a few spine stress creases/ticks that barely break the ink. The biggest problem this book has is what appears to be spine impact damage, which shows up as wrinkling/creases on both covers near the spine’s center. It goes through the whole book. I’ve never seen anything like this, so I have no idea how to grade it. I don’t know if a press will help this either, but it looks worse than it really is. $1, PLUS SHIPPING Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galen130 Posted October 27, 2021 Author Share Posted October 27, 2021 (edited) Secret Wars #1 (#001), Amanda Conner ‘Women of Marvel’ variant. This issue features many appearances by Marvel characters. I believe this comic to be in Very Fine minus condition, or better. There is very light blunting of the spine corners (except the top corner), as well as one or two spine stress creases/ticks that very lightly break the ink. Unfortunately, this book suffered drop/bend damage that shows near the top spine corner on both covers. The bends themselves don’t break the ink on the covers, but they did cause ink-breaking spine ticks…though pretty small. The spine near the top corner shows some wear…it is not ripped. A press will help. I believe I'm being overly conservative on my grade estimate because of the bent corner. Again, I think a press will get this comic to a higher grade. $3, PLUS SHIPPING SOLD Edited June 23, 2022 by Galen130 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
