grendelbo Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 I picked this up today. I can't wait to read it later tonight. Thanks for your opinions. The LCS graded it - Spoiler 8.0 I'm pretty sure it's been pressed already but there is still some warping along the spine of the back cover (typical of a square-bound).

scburdet Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 The lowest CGC graded sq bound I have right now is a 7.5, I'd say this looks just slightly lower, so 7.0. But of course, the defects here may not be treated as harshly as the defects on mine, so I could see a 7.5 too. grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what the comic book store called it. I'm thinking that may be a generous grade. Luu2010 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scburdet Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 Almost every time that I think I have an 8, it comes back 7.0/7.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROBTOTHEC Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 I don't see that above a 7.0 IMHO... grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, look how it shows up in the PGM front page. Spoilers aren't hidden unless they're way down in the text. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mephistopheles Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 I would err on the side of caution and say 6.5. The bottom of the spine looks kinda janky. Maybe from a pressing melting the glue. Cool book though. grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
