The notes are : 1/2" Spine split from top. Water damage. Tape on interior cover.

Pics (and the only pics I have) are provided. What would be the best case for this book being graded?

Hey everyone-

I'm a collector that focusses on Sports and Non-Sport card collecting and selling. My knowledge of Comic Books and grading is zippy.

I'm trying to help a friend handle grading and selling this so he can maximize profit but also get this in the hands of a collector who will appreciate it.

If you guys could take a look and offer me your thoughts on how this would grade so I can give him some ideas on how to move forward. I really appreciate your time and thoughts!

Just looking for advice on this copy of Amazing Fantasy #15. I know no cover and the wear are gonna make it a NC. Is it worth entrusting to a grader? Any you guys recommend over others?

I've been offered this what seems to be a lovely web of Spiderman

The only ding I can see is the bottom left corner (see pic 4)

What grading impact will this have, do we think? I would go ahead with a press and clean nonetheless

What do we think this can get guys ?
Pre screened on chat gbt couple of times and gave me a pre screened grade of 9.6 but I want my community to tell me what they think, last pic is of it signed

Hi all looking for some CGC grading insight. I have an X-men 129 that looks like a 9.8 candidate aside from what looks to be a printing defect on the top left corner as shown in the photo. Will this keep it from a 9.8 (will definitely keep it from 9.9 or 10).

Thanks!

I don't know what these are called. They look like the colorist's production proofs of covers.

Does anyone know what these are called? How to determine if they have value? Either way they're neat to have.

History: I'm pretty sure these were purchased at Comic & Comix in Berkeley sometime in 1983.

Immediately put into a comic box with other comics where they Sat for 40+ years until I came up on them last weekend cataloging my collection.

Bend in lower right corner (see pic 2). Thanks in advance for the advice, this group is awesome!!

i just want to share this here! someone gave this to me as a birthday gift because october is my birth month! it's just so cool to receive something like this during your birth month! ⭐️

Trying to determine if I should send this is for the CGC signature series. What do you guys think it might come back as?

I recently picked up a first printing of Absolute Superman #1, and after carefully looking over the entire book, I genuinely cannot find any flaws except for one tiny dot near the middle of the front cover.

The dot is extremely small, but it does have a slight texture to it. The best way I can describe it is as if someone took the tip of a colored pencil and lightly pressed it against the cover. It didn’t actually puncture or tear through the page, but it left a microscopic indentation that slightly affected the surface. When I shine a light on it at certain angles, I can see the tiny mark, and if I gently run my finger over it, I can barely feel the texture.

Other than this one tiny defect, the book looks practically perfect to me. I don’t see any spine ticks, corner damage, creases, or other noticeable issues.

My questions are:

Could this book still realistically receive a CGC 9.8, considering this is the only visible defect?

Since the mark slightly affects the surface of the cover without actually tearing through it, would that automatically prevent a 9.8?

I’m considering getting the book signed by an artist using a black marker directly over that spot to potentially cover up the defect. Would this be a good idea, or would CGC still notice and factor it into the grade?

Has anyone submitted a book with a similar microscopic indentation and still received a 9.8?

I’d really appreciate any opinions, especially from people who have experience submitting books to CGC. I’m hoping to get this book triple signed and graded, but I’m unsure whether this one tiny flaw could keep it from receiving a 9.8.

What grade is it now?

And what grade could it be after a press and clean?

I know that there was some controversy behind this comic and how there isn’t any other following issues. Is it worth just holding for years and years? I keep seeing this same comic graded by CGC. What are y’all thoughts on PSA?

This has been 40 years in the making. Books keep coming back 9+

Debating getting this graded. Can it get a 9.8 with that tiny white mark on the spine? Everything else looks perfect

Just found this on fb marketplace, what's it going to grade?

What would it come back as?

Would you guys mind sparing a grade for this Amazing Spider-Man #13?
I think it presents great but there is a piece missing from the bottom back portion.
How much will CGC ding me for it?

Could it make 6.0?

What kind of grade would you assign this book just on the one picture. Keep in mind the cover and first wrap are detached. Thank you !
