GRADE IS IN: ASM 101

This is a pressed subscription comic.  You really can't tell that from the front, but the back cover does have the telltale crease.

Aside from that a few minor blemishes. 

To me is seems like it should grade as high as a subscription comic should be able to go, but maybe I'm wrong.

So what is that, about a 6.0?

It looks 5.5/6.0 to me.

Thanks for sharing.

I'd agree that it looks pretty good--6.5 even if it wasn't for the subscription crease--but in my limited research, the highest grade I'm seeing where a full-length subscription crease is allowed is 4.5.

That sucks...

EDIT:  Upon further review of some threads on this very site, it appears that a book with a subscription crease will in some instances receive gradings as high as 6.0 from CGC--although those seem to be in cases where the crease is virtually indetectable and the book is otherwise darn near pristine.
