Funnybooks Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Just having fun Ed...we all realize that grading here on the forums is a fools errand without book in hand, under the proper light and being able to flip through the interiors all the while looking at pretty bad pics on cellphones... Of course, no one here has a track record to write home about... @Deadpoolica just seems to be more, somewhat more accurate than most of us....

mcribar Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 7.0. In my opinion tear is too long for anything higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Hanes Posted July 25, 2021 Author Share Posted July 25, 2021 (edited) saw this today and reminded me of this posting for those interested..this is a pretty detailed rubric for grading and they comment on tears, which seems to be the only organized opinion I can find on the internet https://www.milehighcomics.com/information/grade.html Edited July 25, 2021 by Ed Hanes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendelbo Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 I'm at 7.0 and this copy would need a C&P to solidify that grade. Thanks for posting and bumping it to give me a shot. As for the Mile High Grading Standards, I think they're a good read and you can take certain perspectives from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Hanes Posted August 19, 2022 Author Share Posted August 19, 2022 Almost a year but finally, graded a 8.0 but unfortunately it has some color touchup so the dreaded purple case...arggh MrRoboto and grendelbo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen130 Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 I get 1/3 credit for mentioning 8.0. I did NOT see color touch…don’t think anyone did. Unfortunate… Ed Hanes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ceito Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 (edited) Hello, looking closely at the pre-graded images, the color touch could possibly be on Spider-Man’s knee on the front cover. I’ve looked at others on the PGM section, and mine as well, and I don’t see what yours has. Edited August 19, 2022 by Ceito Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Eye! and it probably has bleed thru on the other side which I wish I had seen...wouldn't have sent it in Edited August 19, 2022 by Ed Hanes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
