Condition & Value
Condition Grade
Very Fine (CGC 8.0)
Condition Details
Visible moderate spine stress, slight color-breaking ticks on the left edge. A significant retail stamp (Magic Mirror Comics) is present on the front cover over the pot graphic, which heavily impacts the grade for collectors. Mild corner blunting is also visible.
Estimated Market Value
$1 - $5 (Raw)
Recent Sales
Recent sales show this issue consistently selling for flat minimums or as part of bundles due to high supply and the presence of a retail stamp.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The comic is a free promotional item with high print volume, and the retail stamp on the cover significantly lowers the ceiling for professional collectors.
Notable Features
Includes a Mouse Guard story by David Petersen and a Lumberjanes story. Features a 'Kaboom!' imprint logo. This copy features a retailer-specific address stamp from Magic Mirror Comics in Mill Creek, WA.
Authentication Notes
Authenticity is confirmed by the specific FCBD 2017 branding and high-quality glossy paper stock typical of 2010s BOOM! Studios releases.
