Grading Recommendation
Moderate recommendation. Because this is a foil cover, achieving a 9.8 is difficult but necessary for significant value gain. A 'Press and Clean' is recommended to remove any minor surface dimples before submission to maximize the grade.
Notable Features
First appearance of B. (Berzerker). Features a 'Virgin' cover (no title or trade dress). Silver Foil finish. Store exclusive variant.
Authentication Notes
The high-gloss silver foil effect is consistent with Boom! Studios' high-end variant production. Staple alignment appears correct for this thickness of cardstock-like cover.
