bcgocubs Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 I received a copy of Thor 3 2nd Print virgin (1st cover appearance of Black Winter) in the mail today. Book is absolutely immaculate save for a printing defect (I believe) in the top left corner of the book. The page is actually NOT torn through. It’s still fully attached to the spine. Do you guys still think it’s possible to obtain a 9.8? Pictures are attached. Side Note: Do you guys think the Black Winter is just Darkseid?

KCOComics Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Can you post a full picture of the front and back cover to go along with the spine photo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcgocubs Posted August 23, 2020 Author Share Posted August 23, 2020 Here you go. I found a small tick mark that doesn’t break color. Additionally my hands warped the back of the cover a tad *facepalm*. I may be able to iron those out. Idk maybe send it in for pressing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William-James88 Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 If all issues have that same defect then a 9.8 is possible, but if not, then it's a toss up and could be 9.6. Best thing to do is submit through a dealer or account holder that will submit a bunch of other books at the same time allowing you to do a 9.8 prescreen.

Galen130 Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 (edited) I agree with KCOComics. I use a dealer in Indiana, but I'm in Colorado. There should be someone closer to your neck of the woods. 9.6/9.8...IMO. Edited August 23, 2020 by Galen130 typo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theCapraAegagrus Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 9.0+ IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcgocubs Posted August 26, 2020 Author Share Posted August 26, 2020 Ya I checked the comic again. The warped sections are now flattened. The back looks just about perfect again. Think I might send it in for grading. It seems like an issue with potential to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funnybooks Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 9.4 maybe 9.6 with press Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
