PGM Another Watchmen 2 4 4

[malachirobertson]

I got this copy of Watchmen 2 because it was in a bundle with an issue 1.  It looks like it took on a liquid at some point.  The cover has some warping and there is minor staining on the last page of the comic.  Your input on the grade would be appreciated.

Yeah, opinions on water stains seem to be all over the ballpark.

I still think that strictly graded, it should be hard to grade over 5.0 with any kind of visible water damage, but as far as desirability goes, it also seems to be one of the least offensive of the major defects (unless the water damage is really severe), but I bet the range of responses you get will cover at least 3 full grades.

4.5/5.0

If it can be pressed out good it may be on the FN/VF threshold. I'm not sure how well it'll turn out though.

Thanks for sharing.
