Condition & Value
Condition Grade
Very Fine (CGC 8.0)
Condition Details
Minor spine stress marks visible through the bag. Slight blunting at the top right and bottom right corners. Light surface wear on the polybag/mylar may obscure some minor scuffing, but the book appears flat with vibrant colors. No major tears or creases visible from the front.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $5.00 - $12.00; Graded (9.8): $45.00 - $60.00
Recent Sales
Recent raw copies in similar condition have sold for $7-$10. High-grade slabbed copies infrequently appear at auction, typically selling for under $55.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The cost of CGC/CBCS grading fees plus shipping would likely exceed the final market value of the book. Only worth grading if it is a personal favorite or if it appears to be a flawless 9.9/10.0.
Notable Features
Includes reprint material featuring art by legendary creators Joe Kubert and Jack Kirby. Part of the prestige format-style specials DC ran in the late 80s/early 90s to celebrate the character's legacy.
Authentication Notes
The book appears to be an authentic 1991 DC publication. The paper stock used for this series was 'Baxter' or higher quality white paper which resists yellowing better than standard newsstand books of the era. UPC barcode is present on the lower right of the cover.
