At long last, this is probably the last Silver Age key or semi-key book I have worth soliciting opinions on. I have another semi-unique one worth sharing, but I doubt anyone would call it a key (spoiler alert). You can also argue with me that MODOK is not an important enough character to call this a semi-key book, but 5-ish year-old-me who first encountered MODOK collecting dinosaurs in the savage land (MTU104) will have nothing of that. I didn't become a paleontologist as planned back then, but I did manage to track down this book in pretty good shape :banana:

Lots of bullseyes on this one. I believe what some people ID'd as staining, CGC determined was foxing. Either way, that probably cost a grade. Last update, and last return for a while probably. The rest of the non-signature books pending return are magazines, so it could be another month, it could be a year. This is basically all the submissions from mid-2022 to early-2003 graded & returned.
