scburdet Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 (edited) I suppose the Morbius bubble has popped, but I was a fan before as evidenced by already owning every comic appearance (i.e. excluding magazines) up to 1984. I did not know this, but I checked for my amusement and realized there was some completeness. I now blame Jared Leto for not being able to retire a couple decades early.

grendelbo Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 (edited) The color-breaking creasing along the right edge of the front cover hurts an otherwise pretty good copy. 7.0 Thanks for posting.

I wonder what % of books from this ear have these kinds of defects. Several of my otherwise nice book from this ear have cover issues like this that seem directly related to the cover hanging over the internal pages. Kind of like the staples on the square bounds, there's very little hope of avoiding some wear, it's just a matter of how much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvel books had it bad until the 80s. scburdet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scburdet Posted July 21 Author Share Posted July 21 Another one I was praying to the CGC gods to get a 7.5. Didn't make it. I did feel a lot better seeing the ASM139 that I never bothered posting a PGM for. I'm including that photo to ease the slight 7.0 pain. grendelbo, Corvonie, FoggyNelson and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use Geek Boutique in Clinton MA for all my books, minus a few SS I send directly, which are done by CCS. Only exception would be some of the heavy covers that can't be pressed, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
