Estimated Market Value
Raw: $3 - $7; Graded (9.8): $40 - $60
Recent Sales
Raw copies typically sell in dollar bins or small bundles for $5. High-grade slabbed copies have sold recently in the $50 range, though demand is relatively low for this specific issue.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The costs of grading exceed the current market value of a 7.0 copy. Only worth grading if in pristine 9.8 condition for a registry set.
Notable Features
Direct Edition barcode. Non-key issue from the early 90s era. Notable for the 'Neo-Nazis Must Die!' cover tag.
Authentication Notes
Appears to be an authentic 1991 publication. The aging on the white areas of the cover and the specific gloss profile of the paper are consistent with Marvel's production standards for that year.
