Not recommended for professional grading. The cost of the grading service exceeds the current market value of the book, especially in this mid-to-high grade condition (estimated 7.0 range).
Notable Features
Features the second appearance of the Psi-Force team. Newsstand edition barcode. Mark Texeira early cover art. Iconic 'New Universe' trade dress on the top border.
Authentication Notes
The book displays appropriate aging for a 1980s copper age comic. No indicators of reproduction; standard newsstand paper stock and color registration appear consistent with Marvel manufacturing of late 1986.
