Condition & Value
Condition Grade
Fine/Very Fine (CGC 7.0)
Condition Details
Visible spine stress marks with several color-breaking ticks along the left edge. Minor blunting on the bottom right corner. Significant vertical surface scuff/crease visible in the high-gloss green area near the top-mid spine. General surface wear and light edge wear consistent with handling.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $3.00 - $8.00; Graded (9.8): $40.00 - $60.00
Recent Sales
Raw copies typically sell for approximately $5.00 on secondary markets. High-grade slabbed copies have seen low volume but remain under $70.00 due to 90s overproduction.
Grading Recommendation
Not worth professional grading. The current market value of a high-grade copy does not offset the costs of grading, shipping, and membership fees. This issue is common in the back-issue market.
Notable Features
Features the clash of two major Marvel 2099 icons. Direct Edition with UPC barcode and 'Direct Edition' text. Iconic cover art by Mark Buckingham.
Authentication Notes
First printing confirmed by the barcode string '00711' and the $1.50 cover price. Glossy cover stock and newsprint interiors are consistent with mid-90s Marvel manufacturing.
