I picked up a collection last week,then saw this thread and remembered seeing a book with a bad staple job...it took awhile to find it again,and I was thinking it was a New Mutants book,which it may still be,but it could've been this one...after looking through 65,000 books,your eyes and mind start playing tricks on ya!!

That is the all-time worst staple alignment ever! I doubt we'll ever see any worse than that. And the funny thing is, I guess the book would still CGC at 9.4/9.6 or whatever since the staple issue is considered a production flaw? It would almost be worth submitting, for the sheer entertainment value of seeing it in a high-grade slab. grin.gif

I'm going to send it in with my next submission in a few weeks. I have a couple miscut books that I've submitted just for fun. I'll put up a scan when I get it back! Joey

That would be awesome if it came back a 9.8! Youll have a bunch of people after that book for its noteriety.
