Pomru Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Major issue is black smudge (fingerprint) to the lower left of the Comics Code Authority seal. Also 3 black flecks between DD's head and Bullseye's right arm, running parallel to the arm. Cover seems slightly miswrapped. New to grading, so not sure how much a smudge like that impacts the grade. I wanted to include a scan instead of photos, but the black smudge didn't show up at all in the scan. I didn't have any colored paper, so just included the white backing boards behind the comic. This is my first post, so I apologize if photos are not of sufficient quality. If not, hints or tips would be appreciated. Thanks! Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRoboto Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 I’m still getting used to black smudges, but as it sits 7.0? If a clean helps, then the grade might bump significantly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are harsh you could see a 8.0. But this was potentially a high grade book that would’ve been in the 9 plus range. The smudge hurts but it’s still a nice copy Pomru and grendelbo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
