Condition & Value

Condition Details
The book appears to be in high-grade condition through the polybag. Visible flaws include a slight blunting of the bottom left corner and minor spine stress marks visible on the left edge. The cover gloss and color vibrancy remain excellent.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $60 - $85 | Graded (9.8): $250 - $350
Recent Sales
Raw copies in similar condition have recently sold between $55 and $90 on eBay. CGC 9.8 copies have consistently trended upward over $300 due to the popularity of the Invincible animated series.
Grading Recommendation
Highly recommended for grading if it can achieve a 9.6 or 9.8. This is a significant crossover key. A professional press and clean could likely elevate this from a 9.2/9.4 to a higher tier, significantly increasing market value.

First meeting of Spider-Man and Invincible. Features a rare 'Image' logo on a Marvel publication cover. Iconic cover art by Invincible co-creator Cory Walker. Highly sought after by both Marvel and Invincible collectors.
Authentication Notes
The book displays correct logo placement, UPC barcoding for the era, and high-quality modern offset printing. No signs of counterfeiting are present; the glossy finish is consistent with 2006 Marvel/Image standards.
