Recent Sales
Dollar-bin staple in raw condition. High-grade slabbed copies rarely appear at auction as the cost of grading exceeds the market value for this specific issue.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The comic is a common 90s issue with low market demand. The cost of CGC/CBCS fees would be significantly higher than the final market value of the book.
