Recent Sales

Grading Recommendation
Worth grading only if a 9.8 is guaranteed. At current estimate of 9.4-9.6, a professional press and clean might elevate it. However, raw value is substantial enough for most collectors as is.
Notable Features
Early work by Ethan Van Sciver. Notable for its 90s indie aesthetic. Includes a letter column and 'Fraga Boom!' cereal parody on cover.
Authentication Notes
Colors are vibrant and registration is sharp. Paper stock appears consistent with mid-90s Harris Comics glossy covers. No signs of restoration or reproduction evident.
