Deutero Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 (edited) Struggling with my own grade for this one. Overall it's not in bad condition but the cover is completely detached. What are your thoughts? Edited July 6, 2023 by Deutero Grade update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowGradeBronze Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Cover detached is allowable in 2.0 but I'm not sure the comic would otherwise grade high enough to warrant any increase to that. Result is a nice presenting 2.0 Deutero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scburdet Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Detached cover sets the ceiling at 3.0. I think 3.0 is also a fair expectation of the accumulated defects Deutero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think 3.0 is also a fair expectation of the accumulated defects I defer to scburdet here, as I was referring to the MyComicShop grading scale, which differs from CGC's (but which contained detailed narrative.) His comments are therefore more relevant if you are considering submitting. scburdet and Deutero 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TC33 Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Detached cover is allowed in 3.0 if the book is otherwise nicer. Its a 3.0 all day but a press would make it present much nicer! Deutero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grendelbo Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Detached covers can grade as high as 4.0. A partial detachment might get you a 4.5. But I'm at 3.0 with this book. Thanks for posting. Deutero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deutero Posted July 6, 2023 Author Share Posted July 6, 2023 (edited) @LowGradeBronze@scburdet@TC33@Golden Pete@grendelbo@Mars76 Only sent my latest submission in to CGC May so apologies for the delay in updating. Pretty much everyone got this one spot on! 3.0 (Universal) Off White to White Pages Grader's notes: detached cover light staining to cover moderate creasing to cover Didn't get this one C&P due to the detached cover.
