So many people on this forum are very confident about the grades they give comic books. I think it's fantastic and am trying to get a feel for grading myself. So take it nice and slow and give me lots of detail.

Whats the word on the cover gloss....looks very....well....flat....is it just me...or is the cover dull ?
And is that a color breaking crease/fold in the center of the villans head?
Is that bottom staple starting to rust a bit?...if its not sorry its my crap monitor...just looks a little dark.

gloss = dull
crease/fold = does not appear to break color when in hand
staple = yes, starting to rust (has not spread to cover)

sorry about the scan...I ordered some stuff from an email that supposed to help increase size

The Joker (7/6/2008)

Thank you Joker. I currently have this one as a 6.5, but I believe I may be overly generous when grading my own books. Something about having it hand I guess.
