Sweat… read something on a hot summer day while laying on your stomach on the lawn as a kid.  
 

Sweat

 

What about if you are reading your comic and suddenly someone else’s bodily fluid winds up on the book?

[Ken Aldred]

One LCS I occasionally went to had the owner sneeze and explosively blow his nose straight into his cupped hands, and then proceed straight on to tilling up comics that were being bought by customers that day. 
 

OCD dilemma for me.  Luckily other shops were available.

Digging through boxes in a guy's garage. Hot as heck, trying not to drip sweat on the books. I finally started taking the boxes outside to work through them.

Seen the opposite problem here in England when it was cold; nasal drip on books at a comic mart. Not me, a guy standing next to me reading and water warping a Superman comic.

No. But I once sneezed on the president of NBC's pasta primavera.

I yawned once, drip of spit hit it.   It was the 1990's.  Hence the yawn.

Does blood count? Somebody else's blood? Like arterial spray? Just asking for a friend.

No but I remember spitting on a comic years ago by accident. I had a badly chipped tooth for a few years and sometimes spit would shoot out if I was talking or just moving my mouth around and I remember that happening when I was reading a comic once. I think it was a late 50s batman comic. I just left it open to dry for awhile and no problem.

I have spit on several 90s books.

As long as they were bagged, like Spider-Man 1 or X-Force 1, no harm done.

I think I Puked on stack of Youngblood 1's an some LCS the 90's. Nobody even noticed and kept buying them.
