9.0; pencil mark is unobstrusive. Without it I would have said 9.2.

Did I miss something?

you might have missed the very light (what looks to be a) water stain on the spine, directly left of Spidey's knee. it continues down into the white swoosh below. probably should have mentioned it in the first post

I think there's some crinkling/ creasing on the LRBC..

. I was aware of the light crease, but since it is on the back cover it is not as severe to me. But Jack Anderson did mention a light water stain which I still don't see. Now that could bring it down from a 9.0.

i just checked out the LRBC, and it looks worse in the scan than it does in hand. what looks like a visible crease is actually discoloration. there is a smaller, very slight crease closer to the corner, but it is hard to feel even when you move your finger over the spot. not enough for it to be a 'corner bash' since the crease is not duplicated on the front, but it is there
