oatcrunch Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 (edited) Hello, I purchased this off eBay for a pretty penny a few months ago and am interested in getting a better idea of the grade. I don't intend to get it pressed or send it into CGC any time soon, I just want to post some of the books I have so I am able to get a better sense of grades for when I shopping around. The most apparent defect is the top staple has torn the cover slightly. Thanks! Edited March 20, 2022 by oatcrunch Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRoboto Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Wow. Just a beautiful comic. I’m not sure what to even grade it. 8.0? oatcrunch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The book look's great. The slight tear is a big bummer. There is a couple problem area's on the back ...it's nice to see close ups of the issues. .....I'm new so don't pay much attention to me.
