Although some have a few more bumps and bruises from having been bought second hand, from what I've seen, the page whiteness and color strike is pretty much the same!!! Excellent score Doc!!!

Thank you gentlemen. It absolutely does. Perfect white pages, amazing brightness, quite possibly the best comic book aroma I’ve ever smelled. For me, it really is an honor to own this book.
