Condition & Value
Condition Grade
Very Fine- (CGC 7.5)
Condition Details
Visible minor spine stress ticks, slight blunting on the top-right corner, and minor edge wear on the white cover. The cover remains bright with good color saturation, though there appears to be slight off-white tanning based on the paper age.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $2 - $5; Graded (CGC 9.8): $30 - $45
Recent Sales
Recent sales show raw copies of this issue consistently selling for cover price or in $1 bins. High-grade graded copies rarely appear due to low market demand.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The cost of the grading service exceeds the current market value of the comic. It is best enjoyed as a reader copy or part of a run in a bag and board.
Notable Features
Features the 'New Format' branding which DC utilized briefly in the late 80s for higher-quality paper/production on select titles. Not a major key issue.
Authentication Notes
The comic appears to be an authentic 1980s DC production. The DC 'bullet' logo and price box (New Format $1.00) are consistent with the era. No signs of reproduction or counterfeiting.
