Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The cost of CGC/CBCS grading would significantly exceed the market value of the book. It is a lower-value copper age title best kept in a bag and board.
Notable Features
Features a bright yellow background cover which is prone to showing dirt but remains clean here. Notable for being part of the independent comic boom of the 1980s by Eclipse.
Authentication Notes
Authentic copy. Print registration is sharp, staple placement is centered, and the 75 cent price point with Canadian conversion is correct for this 1985 release.
