ComicSpa Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Only two issues with this book. A slight tear on backside near top of spine and a wrinkle on backside halfway down near spine. Otherwise really good book. Nothing missing inside. Thanks for everyone’s feedback! Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scburdet Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 9.2±0.2 for the tear. I've seen those little wrinkles that look like a fiber got inked into the paper. I believe that's a manufacturing crease and won't be treated as harshly. In the photos, the top edge of the back cover looks like there could be some foxing. Check the inside edges too as that would drop things a grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRoboto Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 (edited) 9.2. The manufacturing defect shouldn’t affect the grade. However, that cover seems lighter* than normal. It could also just be the pictures. Edited September 9, 2022 by MrRoboto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComicSpa Posted September 6, 2022 Author Share Posted September 6, 2022 Yes. Sometimes this cover is light. I bought one right off the rack and my copy was light. Thanks everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wheelz86 Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 I hope I'm mistaken but I see some dust shadow on the top of the back cover. With that and the micro tear I'm in the 8.5-9.0 range. Thanks for sharing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
