Condition & Value
Condition Grade
Fine/Very Fine (CGC 7.0)
Condition Details
Visible vertical spine crease running most of the left edge, several color-breaking horizontal spine ticks, upper right corner blunting, and slight surface scuffing in the blue footer area.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $5.00 - $15.00; Graded: $30.00 - $50.00 (Market for promotional ephemera is niche)
Recent Sales
Comparable items sold as educational ephemera or 'underground-style' moderns typically sell for under $20 in raw condition.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The current condition (approx. 7.0) and low market demand for modern educational giveaways mean the grading fees would likely exceed the comic's final value.
Notable Features
Created by Eisner-award winner Shannon Wheeler (Too Much Coffee Man). Features a 'Fight Covid Club' logo parodying the Marvel Comics corner box logo style.
Authentication Notes
Genuine promotional issue. Printed on semi-glossy modern stock with standard saddle-stitch staples. Ink density and registration are consistent with high-output digital/offset educational printing.
