PGM: Wolverine #1 - Are these "remainder marks" and what impact on grade will these have? 2 2

[travizb]

I received this copy today and it contains a black streak along the top edge of the comic.  Is this a "remainder mark" and how much of a hit will this book take when grading?  Thanks for your help!

That appears to be "Distributor Spray" and should not affect the grade.

"Distributor Stripes - Color brushed or sprayed on the edges of comic book stacks by the distributor/wholesaler to code them for expedient exchange at the sales racks. Typical colors are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. Distributor Stripes are not a defect."

If you would like to know the grade of this book you will need to post clear pics of the entire book, front cover, rear cover, inside front/rear cover, centerfold.

Agreed.
