Everyone's grading was pretty close. Unfortunately I didn't catch the "slight" color touch seen at the bottom of the N in Spider-man. Too bad it didn't just have a date stamp over that.

crack it out and date stamp it yourself

Hmm...not out of the realm of possibilites. You all have probably discussed it many times before, but I find it odd that on the one hand you can have prices, date stamps, or names on a cover, but a tiny bit of marker or ink and the book is suddenly a restoration job. Ah well, "them's da rules" as they say.

I agree. The mark in this instance, obviously, is not trying to hide anything - it appears to be an errant red ink mark. I believe it should be treated as a stain, graded accordingly and put in a Blue label . . . but hey, what do I know?
