Forever People 1     9.0
Asking Price: $350

What the... another DC?!
Nice copy. Excellent color and gloss. Two light spine stresses at the top staple in the ‘Kirby’s Here’ burst, ncb.
Top and bottom corners of the spine are soft. URC and LRC are nice, but not 9.4 sharp. Very small, light rub/abrasion(?) just to the right of the ‘Try the Boom Tube If You Dare’ word bubble. Back cover excellent.
Evidence of one tiny moisture drop on interior of back cover, toward the bottom right corner.

Fantastic Four  52     3.0

Spine has a lot of stress, but staples holding steady. Corners all soft and have abrasions or creases. Cover is pretty clean, except for 2 light vertical/diagonal creases in the lower half of the book, left and right sides.
Back cover has soiling and spine wear. Note two tears at bottom staple area. Small piece out, bottom edge, and some light tears on the bottom edge as well. ULC nearly has a corner chip out.

Fantastic Four 53     4.0
Asking Price: $95

Looks nice for the technical grade, but a good amount of light ‘spider-web’ creasing along the spine side. Top staple has dug into the cover a little bit. Corners all have some color loss and light creases. Back cover is really clean. Small edge tear on open edge, upper middle. Two small spots of residue, top edge of back cover. Then - a ‘thumb?’ sized stain right on the open edge of the book - right where someone would likely place their thumb when paging through the book... perhaps someone had a nice mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich & they got a bit of mayo on their thumb when reading this one in the early summer days of 1966.

@HighVoltage,

Just curious do you have the Crow issue 3, Death?

Thanks

To know - I used to have it! But it has stealthily disappeared into the collection somewhere. If I find it, I will make it available.

Strange Tales 181 (signed by Starlin)     6.0
Asking Price: $20

Spine has about 5 ticks/bends, but 2 appear to break color. Corners are  a little soft. Some light edge wear.
Back cover looks nice, but has an impact bend in ULC area and then along the open edge. There are also 2 diagonal bends/creases that run from the mid open edge toward the bottom edge.

Amazing Fantasy 15 2006 (Copy C)     9.0
Asking Price: $245   [SOLD!]

Spine corners have small production burrs/softness (not razor sharp).
1 non-color breaking bend, near spine side, toward upper staple, and a non-color breaking printer wrinkle slightly above the top staple also on the spine side.
Back cover very nice, small, light scratch? LLC. Difficult to tell if color is scratched in that area.  Less than 1/4” in length.
