Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading unless signatures are verified as authentic by a witness. The marker writing reduces the technical grade to a 'Qualified' or 'Green' label unless authenticated.
Notable Features
Independent/Underground press; Mature Audiences rating; features silver and black marker writing likely from band members (Oderus signature visible); low print run compared to mainstream titles.
Authentication Notes
Marker signatures on front cover. Print quality is consistent with mid-90s independent 'Zine-style' comic production. Check for characteristic interior paper scent and staple oxidation.
