First up is...

Amazing Spider-Man 238

1st appearance of the Hobgoblin, newsstand variant

Tattooz are neatly removed from the book. Comic is in the VG/F range but may improve with a press. Included is FF 252 WITH TATTOOZ. Prices on this book have gone insane.

$260

Is there a way to tell if the sample is in the pouch?

The last picture was meant to show the tattooz in the pouch. In between "clean and dry" and "very wet", you can see something a little tilted on the picture and you can feel it through the insert. I don't know how many are supposed to be there or what, but this one does not appear tampered with and seems to be as it was originally distributed. An enterprising individual could take the books apart, add the tattooz and put them back together to have a much more valuable comic, hence the inclusion of the FF 252.

Batman The Killing Joke

1st printing

Comes from a collection of haphazardly stored comics so this would benefit greatly from a press. Small holding indent near DC symbol. Spine tick near the bottom of the Joker's wrist. Could press to higher grade but copy has some gentle waviness to it that does not crease.

$50

Iron Man 282

1st full war machine. Direct edition.

Presents well but is lower grade. Color-breaking crease coming down from spine on front cover. Top left corner was crunched. Improperly stored in a pile for years. Would benefit from a press but I don't think it is worth it for this book.

$50

Sandman 1

Classic Neil Gaiman premiere of Morpheus. Apparently there is also a Netflix series coming soon, so this is gonna explode...

Spine rub above bottom staple. A few spine ticks and light creases and book has some light waviness due to improper storage (pattern here?). Presents nicely but would benefit from a press. Back cover has a corner fold as shown and "Experience is the fruit of the tree of errors" is written in cursive pen.

$225
