First off, really amazing books. Two of the top SA comics of all time! 

A few clerical things. 

You should only post 1 book per thread. It's a rule and will help avoid confusion.

For grading purposes it would be best to take pictures out of the bag and get a back cover photo. The bags can cause glare or cover up creases. 

I'll take a closer look and give some initial thoughts on the grades.

The SC4 looks like a 4.5 / 5.0 from what I can see. 

A few color breaking creases. The spine seems to have a few issues at the top staple. Really beautiful presenting copy. 

Again the back cover photo and pictures out of the bag will help. 

 

For the Hulk is the spine totally split and held together by tape? 

My initial reaction is 4.0 purple label, with the tape being the major detractor.  Others may have a better feel for how that will impact the grade. And again, all subject to change with a BC photo. 

Great color on the hulk.

Well said @KCOComics and congrats on these beauties

difficult to grade accurately, but, based only on what you’ve posted...

SC4 5.0

Hulk 4.5

Great find!! 

I feel like you don't see the SC4 pop up too often unless your looking for it. Not that Hulk 1s are falling from the trees. 

Can you post back cover photos?

It's unmistakable! Same level of color-preservation, ink characteristics, paper quality, etc. Same "weight". I could tell hey were stored in the same environment. Just wanted to affirm. Wonderful books and great to see! (worship)

Showcase 4? Unrestored? A beautiful copy with Pedigree paper quality and colors? Super rare occurrence.
