marvelmaniac Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 All I see is multiple small color breaking spine ticks, and only because the rest of the book appears flawless... 9.0 VERY FINE/NEAR MINT (VF/NM): Back to Top Nearly perfect with outstanding eye appeal. A limited number of bindery/printing defects are allowed. Cover is almost flat with almost imperceptible wear. Inks are bright with slightly diminished reflectivity. An 1/8" bend is allowed if color is not broken. Corners are cut square and sharp with ever-so-slight blunting permitted but no creases. Several lightly penciled, stamped or inked arrival dates are acceptable. Very minor foxing. Spine is tight and flat. Staples may show some discoloration. Only the slightest staple tears are allowed. A very minor accumulation of stress lines may be present if they are nearly imperceptible. Paper is off-white to cream and supple. Very minor interior tears may be present. FN/VF 7.0 - Slight staple tears and a small accumulation of light stress lines may be present. VF 8.0 - Very slight staple tears and a few almost insignificant stress lines may be present NM- 9.2 to NM 9.4 - Almost no stress lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bronzemarvel Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 I'm going against the consensus and would say it could be an 8.5 to 9.0 with that much stress on the spine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JollyComics Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Sometimes CGC is weird and swift mood and can give it 8.5. They are in best days and may give it 9.0/9.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
