Hey there, I posted a thread on this a few days ago but now that I've obtained the comic I've posted some new images - the seller described this comic as a 8.0 in VF, but I've noticed a fine line on the middle of the cover; it looks like a crease (which can be seen in the 5th and last image across the character's right-leg)

Would this comic benefit from a clean and/or a press? All comments are welcomed :3

It's hard to make out, but possibly a light subscription crease? 

I had something similar on a Hulk 181. I had it graded about 15 years ago, then resubmitted it with a press last year. The press removed the crease and gave it a half point bump (from a 6.5 to 7).  

 

For this book, I think that 8.0 is fair especially after a press.

Hey there - thanks :3

I hadn't thought about a subscription crease - and true be told: I've not heard about that specific type of crease.

But - from what I can tell - the crease hasn't damaged the paper or the ink - so would a press remove the said defect, even if it is a subscription crease?

Yes - it should.  It did with my 181.
