Probably the last comic I’m going to post for a bit. I’m going to be sending off quite a few books soon and there’s a couple in my collection that I’m debating whether to send in or not.

Big JC fan and if I do get this slabbed then I won’t be able to see him : )

What do you think it might get?

Thanks in advance.

Slightly blunted/rounded top corners, slight wear at top edge, numerous spine stress lines w/color break, very slight staple tears, color rub on rear cover.

IMO...The book is better than a FN 6.0, however, the multiple stress lines...

7.0 FINE/VERY FINE (FN/VF):  Back to Top
An above-average copy that shows minor wear but is still relatively flat and clean with outstanding eye appeal. A small accumulation of minor bindery/printing defects is allowed. Minor cover wear beginning to show, possibly including minor creases. Corners may be blunted. Inks are generally bright with a moderate reduction in reflectivity. Stamped or inked arrival dates may be present. Minor foxing. The slightest spine roll may be present, as well as a possible moderate color break. Staples may show some discoloration. Slight staple tears and a small accumulation of light stress lines may be present. Slight rust migration. Paper is cream to tan. Centerfold is mostly secure. Minor interior tears at the margin may be present.

6.5 FINE+ (FN+):  Back to Top
Fits the criteria for Fine but with an additional virtue or small accumulation of virtues that improves the book's appearance by a perceptible amount.

I was way under, apparently CGC does not deduct for color breaking spine ticks, but I digress... Congrats on that 8.5!!!

I think the ad on the back page might have helped with that. As some of the back cover can be seen on the front cover and there are some horizontal lines in the ad. There are spine ticks above and below this though.

No notes so (shrug) but I’m not complaining as I thought it would be around a 7.0/7.5!
