Grading Recommendation
Not generally recommended for professional grading unless part of a larger collection submission, as the grading and shipping costs would exceed the potential value increase for an 8.0 book. Removal of the price sticker by a professional pressing service could potentially bump the grade up.

Standard 1990s Marvel newsstand/direct publication indicators present with correct paper stock, staple placement, and color registration consistent with genuine issues.
