Grading Recommendation
Moderate Recommendation. While modern Peach Momoko covers are highly collectible, this specific issue is not a major key. If a visual inspection confirms it can hit a 9.8, grading is worthwhile for the premium; otherwise, it is better kept in a top-loader.
Notable Features
Virgin cover art by breakout artist Peach Momoko. Part of the critically acclaimed run by Christopher Priest. Minimalist trade dress with no UPC or titles on the front cover.
Authentication Notes
Authentic Dynamite Entertainment product. High-gloss cover stock with sharp digital coloring typical of 2020 production standards. Momoko's signature mark is present in the lower-left corner.
