Raw: $10 - $25, Graded (CGC 4.0): $30 - $50
Recent Sales
Standard regular editions and promo copies in mid-to-lower grades generally trade within the $15-$30 range depending on the specific buyer interest in 90s variants.
Grading Recommendation
Not generally recommended for professional grading unless for personal collection preservation, as the value in this condition does not offset grading fees, though a professional press might improve the prominent cover crease.
Notable Features
Features a prominent 'NOT FOR RESALE' box in the upper left corner indicating a promotional distribution copy rather than a standard direct or newsstand edition.
Authentication Notes
Appears authentic with standard 1990s Marvel paper stock, proper ink registration on the McGuinness cover art, and matching staple placement.
