A recent submission of Hellblazer 1 got a grade 5...I was perplexed as the book was never moved or even read. Notes said back cover had wear resulting in cover breaks. I contend the 'wear' is part of the cover itself. Does anyone have a picture of a back cover of said comic? I'd appreciate a look. thanks | ||

I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie. | flanders private msg quote post Address this user | |
Please post pictures when you get the book back. There must be a large color breaking crease on the back to drop it to a 5.0. Here's a back cover scan of a copy at mycomicshop.com |

@tonyz58 well that's definitely unique. The back cover is so bad you thought it was printed that way. It makes a great story to tell. | ||

That's a pretty rough looking back cover. | ||

Looks like it was used as a skipping stone on hardwood flooring that hasn't been swept in a few weeks. | ||

If I could, I would. I swear. | DrWatson private msg quote post Address this user | |
It looks like it drew moisture or got hot while laying on something, maybe even a backing board, and left an ink transfer on the other object when it was removed. | ||

@DrWatson yeah, more than likely. It was probably the backboard material used to make the one side glossy smooth. | ||

I don't believe this....and I know you don't care that I don't believe this. | GAC private msg quote post Address this user | |
@tonyz58 don't feel bad....black covers are extremely unforgiving. | ||

Black covers have always been difficult to find in high grade, I saw a Superman 199 in high grade once, it was the only one I have ever seen, that did not have color breaks on the spine. | ||

If the viagra is working you should be well over a 9.8. | xkonk private msg quote post Address this user | |
The more that I've seen the phrase "tough (insert color here) cover", the more I've realized that covers are hard to find in high condition. | ||

@Wayneds thanks! I was actually curious about Tony’s front cover on that 5.0 grade. Just given the nature of what happened to the back. |

This has me wanting to take a look at a few of the books I'm wanting to send in. I have some that I know are primarily black that I'm kind of worried about now. | ||
