I AM NEITHER A COMIC DEALER NOR A PROFESSIONAL GRADER, but I believe I'm fair, and I err on the side of caution. I have been an avid comic collector for over 40 years and my goal is to describe any comic I am selling the same way I would want a seller to describe the comic to me.

In my opinion, the condition of this book is Very Good+ (VG+) 4.5, due to minor cover creasing. Please study the pictures and make your own determinations.
