The book appears to be in very high-grade condition. Corners look sharp through the polybag. No visible spine ticks or color-breaking creases are apparent based on the image. Minimal edge wear at the top right corner is possible but likely just light reflection on the bag.

Raw: $20 - $35; Graded (9.8): $75 - $100
Recent Sales
Recent sales for this specific Momoko virgin variant have fluctuated between $25 and $40 for raw copies near the release date. NM/M graded copies have surfaced around $80.
Grading Recommendation
Moderate recommendation. If the book is a 9.8 candidate, grading can preserve the art and slightly increase liquidity, but the current market value for modern variants often barely covers the cost of grading fees. A press and clean is recommended before submission to ensure a 9.8 grade.
Notable Features
Virgin cover art by superstar artist Peach Momoko. This issue marks a significant point in the series as it deals with the 'aftermath' of the previous major storyline.
Authentication Notes
The book displays the correct high-gloss finish and cardstock quality expected of BOOM! Studios modern variants. The art style and print resolution are consistent with official Peach Momoko releases.
