Newsstand edition copy of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi #2 (limited series).  This issue suffers from quite a bit of moisture damage and staining, which affects the interior pages to one degree or another. A few pics were taken of other defects, but they pale in comparison to the moisture damage and staining.  The comic is complete.

I didn't bother to grade this one, but I don't want to throw it away.  I'd like this comic to go to a good home, so.....

Newsstand edition coy of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi #3 (limited series).  This issue suffers from the same type of moisture damage as issue #2.  The interior pages are affected as well, again from minor to major.  The book is complete.

Again, I don't like throwing away comics.  Perhaps this one will also go to a good home.  Having said that...

Strange Tales #170.  This issue features the 2nd appearance of Brother Voodoo, as well as the 1st appearance of Bambu.

Here’s some interesting info I found about the front cover.  It’s possible that Steve Mitchell gets inker credit per Nick Caputo (July 2012), per ‘original’ art seen in the Comic Art Gallery.  The front cover has an "M" near Brother Voodoo's right foot.  Nick Caputo suspects the inks may be the work of Steve Mitchell, who inked Kane in Marvel Team-Up # 4. Nick also explains that the inking here looks more detailed and different than that of other Giordano inked covers. Mitchell was Giordano's assistant for a time and worked for ‘continuity’, so this may either be an all-Mitchell ink job (the inking does look similar to his work on Marvel Team-Up) or Mitchell assisting Giordano.

Strange Tales #173.  This issue features the 5th appearance of Brother Voodoo, the last in Strange Tales.  It also features the 1st appearance of Black Talon.  Marvel Value Stamp #45 (Mantis) is intact.

5.5FN-, or better.  My biggest concern with this comic is some sticky residue near the word ‘Tales’ that may have damaged the ink underneath.  I opted NOT to try and clean this off because I don’t know how to clean and press comics.  A post-it note covers the spot to keep it from sticking to the mylar bag.  I have no idea how this happened. :facepalm:  I believe it can be cleaned off (mostly) for a higher grade.
