PGM Another Watchmen 1 4 4

[malachirobertson]

This copy of Watchmen 1 has some stray ink lines on the back, perhaps from the printing of the cover.  Note particularly the last two pictures and the lines on the clock face.  But what does it do to the grade?  Thanks for your input.

If it IS a printing defect, CGC doesn't seem to mind those as much as say, a water stain, so it probably wouldn't affect the grade any more than the other defects, particularly the spine stress and blunting at the bottom.

I think it could still be called an 8.0 pretty easily; probly even an 8.5.

I have seen this before on other comics, I’m 99% sure it is a printing error. With that in mind:

As it sits 8.5

After C&P, 9.0

8.0/8.5

C&P for 9.0/9.2.

Thanks for posting.

8.0 too many spine tics and the corner nudge hurts.

 

[Funnybooks]

8.0

8.0/8.5

There is a slim chance that those streaks could be ink transfers from another comic…just sayin’.
