That's not spine-roll. A lot people think that it is spine-roll, but it's not.
Ooohhh, seriously? I never knew this before..i would have called in spine-roll...I think a bunch of my comics aren't spine-rolled then...nifty.

True spineroll is quite nasty. The back cover doesn't line up with the front cover in most cases.

Spine roll is when the edges of the front & back cover don't line up. It's caused by folding the cover over to the back while reading. (Yes, that was a common way to read comics, back in dinosaur times.) Usually (always?) you can see a peek of the interior pages when viewing the comic from the back. Spine roll was also caused by rolling the comic into a tube shape so it would more easily fit into the back pocket while reading a bike. Don't know if you can do that to a modern comic, I think you'd get color breaking creases and maybe it'd break in half at the spine.

That can definitely be pressed. Probably a 9.6 or 9.8.Bag-n-board it, file it away in the collection, no need for extra-special pressing.

Nice, thank you for the additional info on spine roll!  I will certainly remember this when describing comics from now on. I think some modern comics you can roll but like you said you'd get more colour breaking creases...The paper just seems to go back into shape..Or if you bend it..it'll just stay like that.
