Condition & Value
Condition Grade
Very Fine- (CGC 7.5)

Estimated Market Value
Raw: $3 - $8 / Graded (9.8): $40 - $60
Recent Sales
Recent raw copies typically sell in dollar bins or lots. High-grade slabbed copies infrequently appear and maintain low-end value due to high supply and low current demand for this specific issue.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The cost of the grading service (CGC/CBCS) exceeds the current market value of the book. The sticker on the cover significantly impacts the grade and appeal unless professionally removed without damage.
Notable Features
This issue is part of the post-'Death of Superman' era of Justice League. It features a striking 'zombie-style' horror cover by Ron Randall, which predates the modern zombie comic craze.
Authentication Notes
Standard 1990s DC gloss paper stock with newsprint-quality interiors. The presence of the DC Bullet logo, price in USD/CAN/UK, and the specific 'JL' logo in the bottom right corner are consistent with authentic 1993 prints.
