Condition Details
Book is in a protective plastic bag with a backing board, showing very minor wear along the spine, sharp corners with minimal blunting, flat cover with no major creases or color breaks, clean white edges on back visible, and crisp staples.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $3 - $10, Graded (CGC 9.2/9.4): $30 - $50
Recent Sales
Generally trades in the low dollar bins or online for a few dollars raw due to low mainstream demand, though specific high-grade independent titles from Homage/Wildstorm maintain niche collector interest.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading (CGC/CBCS) as the grading and slab fees would far exceed the market value of the book. Best kept raw in a bag and board.
Notable Features
Features artwork by legendary artist John Severin. Direct edition with barcode box showing '00311' and WildStorm branding under Homage Comics imprint.
Authentication Notes
Appears authentic with standard 1990s comic stock paper, crisp barcode, clean ink registration, and proper cover gloss consistent with WildStorm/Homage publications of that era.
