Condition Details
The comic appears broadly sharp but shows slight blunting on the bottom left corner and minor spine-side waving likely due to the bag's tension. Surface gloss is high.
Estimated Market Value
$4.99 - $15.00 (Raw); $60.00 - $80.00 (Estimated CGC 9.8)
Recent Sales
Initial pre-sale listings and release-week sales are trending at cover price for standard copies; certain high-ratio variants for this issue are commanding $50-$100.
Grading Recommendation
Only worth grading if it is a guaranteed 9.8 and you have a personal attachment, as modern 'Cover A' books have high print runs. Pressing is recommended to remove back-cover indentations often found on modern Marvel glossies.
Notable Features
First appearance of Ultimate Wolverine (Logan) in his own solo title within the Earth-6160 continuity. Features a new costume design by Alessandro Cappuccio.

Authentic modern Marvel publication with high-quality cardstock cover, standard UPC with '00111' identifying issue 1, cover A, first printing.
