Condition & Value

Estimated Market Value
Raw: $3.00 - $8.00; Graded (9.8): $40.00 - $60.00
Recent Sales
Low-volume sales typically found in 'dollar bins' or bundled lots. Individual issues in high grade rarely exceed $10 raw due to low collector demand for this specific indie title.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The cost of the grading service (approx. $25-$40) exceeds the potential market value of the book, as it is a common 1980s independent title with limited secondary market liquidity.
Notable Features
Features a $1.50 cover price; published by the short-lived New Comics Group (NCG); typical mid-80s independent black-and-white (or limited color) interior art style.
Authentication Notes
Appears to be an authentic original 1986 printing. The paper stock and ink saturation are consistent with other New Comics Group publications of the mid-80s 'Indie Boom'.
