This book holds a lot of sentimental value to me, it may well be the very 1st comic I ever bought new. 

Corners are blunted/dented w/color breaking creases, minor to moderate edge wear w/color breaking vertical creases on the outer edge, minor spine roll, moderate spine stress w/color breaking spine ticks/creases and what appears to be a tear by The Torches leg, moderate staple tears, discolored staples, moderate color loss in the price box and logo, writing on the cover by "Beetles left hand", minor to moderate staining/discoloration, small tears along edges of rear cover, moderate discoloration of rear cover.

Assuming the cover is not detached at one or both staples or the centerfold is completely detached, if it is, then lower the grade to a GD/VG 3.0, as the book sits right now, IMO...

4.0 VERY GOOD (VG):  Back to Top
The average used comic book. Cover shows moderate to significant wear, and may be loose but not completely detached. Cover reflectivity is low. Can have moderate creases or dimples. Corners may be blunted. Store stamps, name stamps, arrival dates, initials, etc. have no effect on this grade. Some discoloration, fading, foxing, and even minor soiling is allowed. As much as a 1/4" triangle can be missing out of the corner or edge; a missing 1/8" square is also acceptable. Only minor unobtrusive tape and other amateur repair allowed on otherwise high grade copies. Moderate spine roll may be present and/or a 1" spine split. Staples may be discolored. Minor to moderate staple tears and stress lines may be present, as well as some rust migration. Paper is brown but not brittle. Minor to moderate interior tears may be present. Centerfold may be loose or detached at one staple.
