This listing is for Secret Wars #8 CGC 8.5 1st App & Origin Symbiote Black Suit Venom WHITE PAGES *NOT PRESSED*. This book looks fantastic! When I got this book back from CGC I was so surprised this book got an 8.5. This has to be the nicest CGC 8.5 anyone has ever seen and I'm not just saying. The one thing I should've done was get this book pressed but I don't really trust CGC pressing and there isn't a comic book presser in my area. If you decide to crack and resubmit this book after a press, I would guess at least a 9.4. I was only able to see very small microscopic dings on the spine that don't break color, a very small spine tick on the back cover and one very small one on the front cover, but again they are incredibly small. Please take a look at the pictures to see how clean this book looks. The grader notes are below, the two creases they mention I can't even see them. These defects should ALL if not mostly be taken care of with a press. I had submitted this book with ALL modern (2017-current) books so I'm wondering if that was a reason they were so strict with this one since it was over 30 years older than the other modern books I had submitted with it. As always the winner of my comic listings come with a free random comic. Shipping is $10 and combine shipping is available. If you have any questions feel free to shoot me a message.
