Nice and Bright, Fully Intact and Square and not showing it's Age (25 Years Old !!!).
The comic is very attractive and appears "As New". Very slight scuffs to the Spine ends, otherwise Mint...Excellent Copy...
There are no missing pages or add cut-outs on the inside and the pages are White with Vivid Colours. Staples are tight & sound.There is no water damage and has been stored for about 25 years in a smoke free home (Yes, I'm an old guy and collected this myself off the rack).
Overall, an Outstanding and almost perfect copy that is going because my wife says we must downsize.
Comic is in VERY HIGH GRADE Collectible condition (Probably around Mint)...PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS & SCANS (Scans have the Blue Background)...to judge for yourself ! Again, please look at the pictures to assess the exact condition of the comic to your satisfaction.
The Actual Comic is Shown in the Photos and this is the Comic you will Receive..
As I've said before, I have been collecting since before comic stores even existed and you had to go down to the local smoke shop, but it's time to let them go. Thanks for looking...
