Condition & Value

Condition Grade

Very Fine+ (CGC 8.5)

Condition Details

Minor spine stress marks visible on the dark left edge. Slight blunting on the bottom right corner. Minimal surface scuffing on the black ink background. Staples appear aligned with no visible rusting.

Estimated Market Value

$2.00 - $5.00 (Raw); $25.00 - $35.00 (Graded)

Recent Sales

Recent raw sales for early Ultraverse issues average $1.00 to $4.00. Most copies are found in dollar bins as the demand for 90s Malibu titles is currently low.

Grading Recommendation

Not recommended for grading. The cost of professional grading (CGC/CBCS) far exceeds the market value of the comic. It is best kept in a bag and board for personal collection.

Notable Features

Features a 'Debut Cards' insert ad on the top left. Notable for being part of the 1990s Ultraverse, a shared universe eventually acquired by Marvel Comics. Characters have not appeared in modern Marvel continuity for years due to legal complexities.

Authentication Notes

Authentic Malibu Comics issue. Gloss level is consistent with 1994 production standards. The 'Ultraverse' silver-ink logo reflects light as expected for a genuine copy.
