scburdet Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 (edited) At one point, I was entertaining the idea of a Frank Miller signature on his cover art. Upon deeper inspection, I don't think this will be a wise investment, which would require getting a 9.6/9.8. Bearing in mind my lighting always make it look like there's color rub on the edges, there is a small tear above the L in MARVEL. It's barely noticeable (<1/4"), which is why I missed it initially. It's a lot clearer from the other side. The other thing is that the red ink shows through the cover, on the inside from the front (not shown) and on the back cover from the ad on the inside for the ROM action figure.

MrRoboto Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 I don’t think 9.6-9.8. 9.4 max because of the tear. scburdet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAR1979 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 9.4 spine ticks and small tear, however since a Modern book it might be judge more harshly so 9.2 or 9.0 are also very possible. As its a direct sale IMHO not worth submitting. scburdet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
