Condition & Value
Condition Grade
Fine (CGC 6.0)
Condition Details
A large retail/shipping label is adhered to the bottom left corner, covering the barcode area. Visible spine stress, blunting on corners, and general surface wear. The label is a major technical flaw.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $2 - $5 / Graded (CGC 9.8): $40 - $60
Recent Sales
Recent raw copies of this mid-grade issue sell for pocket change in bulk lots. 9.8 graded copies occasionally reach $50 but are not high-demand keys.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The low market value and the large adhesive sticker on the cover would result in a very low grade and poor ROI.
Notable Features
Newsstand edition (identified by the scannable barcode font and layout). Part of the controversial 1990s 'Heroes Reborn' relaunch where Marvel outsourced its core characters to Image Comics founders.
Authentication Notes
Authentic mid-90s Marvel production. Standard gloss cover stock with newsprint-style interior pages. Identification verified by the 'MAY 97' date stamp and Jim Lee cover art signature.
