marvelmaniac Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 Welcome To The Boards!!! Edge/Corner wear w/color breaking creases, moderate spine stress/creasing w/color breaks, 1" interior tear. IMO... 5.0 VERY GOOD/FINE (VG/FN): Back to TopAn above-average but well used comic book. An accumulation of bindery/printing defects is allowed. Minor to moderate cover wear apparent, with minor to moderate creases and/or dimples. Inks have moderate to low reflectivity. Blunted corners are increasingly common, as is minor to moderate staining, discoloration, and/or foxing. Stamped or inked arrival dates may be present. A minor to moderate spine roll is allowed. A spine split of up to 1/2" may be present. Staples may show minor discoloration. Minor staple tears and minor stress lines may also be present, as well as minor rust migration. Paper is tan to brown with no signs of brittleness. Centerfold may be loose. Minor interior tears may also be present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scburdet Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 4.5-5.0. The spine wear is obvious. That front corner bend (may be improved by pressing). I see what looks like it might be a crease running parallel to the outer edge. That, if it's what it is, could be a pressable defect too. The rest of the front cover looks very nice though.
