gadzukes Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 (edited) Pretty nice copy. My photo kind of makes the color looked washed out, but it's not that way at all. The colors are vibrant. Nice spine, cover & cf attached at the staples. date stamp of some sort on the front, name stamp and store stamp on the back cover. Back cover has a couple spots of what I would call "Marvel Chipping" on the free edge. (So do we call it DC chipping?) Nice interior Edited April 8, 2021 by gadzukes allthingskryptonite and Galen130 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William-James88 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Is there some staple tear going on with the bottom staple? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gadzukes Posted April 8, 2021 Author Share Posted April 8, 2021 Grade is in. 5.0. Pretty disappointed. At least it presents well. Deadpoolica and Funnybooks 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "Stamps" on the back cover..... I didn't really think that was something they graded down for, but I understand..... there's two stamps. The "tears and missing pieces" on back cover are all visible on my pic. The "moderate staple rust" is the one thing you couldn't see in the photo. I'm not sure I would have called it "moderate".... it's certainly not enough that it transferred to the pages. To me, it seems it's a somewhat common amount that you see in Silverage comics.

Bludriver Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 That is a disappointing grade. Book looks nicer than a 5.0. Albert Thurgood and Mars76 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Thurgood Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 That's a very harsh grade. Basically they are taking off a couple of points for stamps (I thought these weren't deprecated?) and minor rust on staples (that must be on the interior so no-one will see).
