Condition & Value
Condition Grade
Near Mint (9.4)
Condition Details
Appears remarkably flat with a high degree of gloss. Minimal spine stress visible through the polybag, though common for this yellow-heavy cover. Corners appear sharp. A final grade of 9.4-9.6 is likely pending inspection out of the bag.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $20 - $35; Graded (9.8): $75 - $110
Recent Sales
Recent sales for the Sujin Jo Virgin variant range from $25 for raw copies to $100 for CGC 9.8 graded copies. Markets for modern variants are currently stable but highly dependent on the popularity of the featured character appearing in MCU media.
Grading Recommendation
Potential candidate for grading if looking to preserve for a personal collection. For resale, only a guaranteed 9.8 grade provides a significant profit margin after fees. A professional press could help mitigate minor surface indentations often found on these heavy cardstock covers.
Notable Features
Minimalist 'Negative Space' style cover. Key relaunch of a flagship title. Limited edition retailer exclusive variant (Virgin Edition - no trade dress/logo). Includes a digital edition code inside (unverified).
Authentication Notes
The Sujin Jo stamp signature is visible above the belt line. Proper paper stock weight and vibrant yellow ink saturation consistent with modern Marvel retailer exclusives. No signs of reproduction or tampering.
