The best way to understand why a specific comic book received a Check Mark designation is to refer to the graders' notes. Example: a comic is graded 8.0. However, the covers are such that it looks like a 8.5 or a 9.0....

This story takes place as Tony Stark is recovering from his relapse into alcoholism but is still several issues away from reclaiming the Iron Man armor.
