| I’d like to hear some opinions on this one, sorry I forgot to snap a picture of the back). looks like the case was damaged (on the edge not really visible in the photo) so the seller was offering a bit of a discount. I know the grade has a slight hit due to the unwitnessed signature (Roy Thonas?) but if the witnessed sig carries over and the unwitnessed sig can be verified + a clean and press, what could you see this grading as? The graders notes read: staple detached bottom of cover heavy staining to cover moderate creasing to cover moderate pieces out to cover moderate spine stress lines to cover moderate tears to cover Pressing wouldn’t fix a lot of that but it might reduce some of the creasing but it foes have a lot of color-breaking lines as well.  |

 How do I know this? Because I've done it myself.

| @CaptainCanuck I agree. Pressing might help how a bit with how it presents, but I can't see the grade changing in light of the spine, the chips and staining. Maybe you could get a 2.0, but I'd be surprised. | ||

| Thanks! That’s about what I was thinking after seeing the notes but I wanted to make sure I was on the right track. The vendor has a 3.0 for $100 and it was looking more attractive, especially since the other would need to be regraded and verified and the grade might not even bump |

 I've spent years perfecting my brand of assholery.

 I snorted just a little.

| I’d just pay the $100 more and go with the 3.0. Too many variables on a 1.8 that actually presents very closely to what a 1.5 would. But… that being said, I’m not much of a fan of signed comics, verified or not. | ||
