Condition & Value
Condition Grade
Very Fine (CGC 8.0)
Condition Details
The book shows several minor spine ticks that break color along the left edge. There is visible corner blunting on the bottom right. The cover appears slightly wavy near the bottom, possibly from storage or bag pressure. Colors are bright and centering is good.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $3 - $6 | Graded 9.8: $30 - $45
Recent Sales
Raw copies typically sell for pocket change in bulk bins or $3-$5 on eBay. Graded copies are rare due to the high cost of grading relative to book value.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The cost of CGC/CBCS services far exceeds the market value of the comic. Even a 9.8 would likely not recoup the investment once shipping and fees are included.
Notable Features
First appearance of Razorsharp and the Psyba-Rats. Features the 'Bloodlines: Earthplague' branding. Notable for early 90s crossover gimmicks.
Authentication Notes
Genuine first printing. The 'B' Bloodlines logo and DC bullet are correctly positioned. Typical early 90s newsprint interior stock and gloss-treated cover cardstock.
