    I am used to getting a few Newton Rings on comics that are double-sized, but I had a batch of 15 come back to me that all had Rings. Here is a sample with X-Men 169 as the most noticeable. I am tempted to send them back to fix, but I don't want to be charged. Thoughts?

    I'm in if there is still room.

    This copy of Watchmen 1 does not have the ink spots like the other copy I posted today, but it still has the signs on the back of where the flap and tape were (See the last two photos). What would you grade this as? Thanks.

    Hi, this copy of Watchmen 1 has some ink misprints on the front and back. A circle of black ink has been spread to not black ink areas. How do those affect the grade? Also, this copy has in the right lighting signs of where the bag flap and tape had been (third to the last photo). Thanks for your input.

    I am open to suggestions on the lighting. My work space is in a basement and I have two floor lamps and an LED work lamp. I usually use the LED from an angle so I don't get the glare from the floor lamps.

    I have had this same question. I sent in a Swamp Thing 21 that I thought was in relatively good shape and it came back with 5.5 saying there was a crease down the center of the cover.

    Hi, I took another look at this one given something I saw in the other three that came from this batch. Here is a shot of one of the other copies in bright light. What do you think this does to the grade?
  11. malachirobertson
    Yes, there are some creases there, but I don't think they break color. They could look better I think with a press.
  12. malachirobertson
    Yes, there is a crease on the T, but I don't think it breaks color. I don't think there is any spine roll.

    For my final installment of today, I have a fairly nice Watchmen 1, except for some manufacturing marks on the upper left of the back cover (see the full shot of the back cover). I have two other copies in the same state. Thanks for your input.
  14. malachirobertson
    This is a nice copy of Watchmen 1, except for the printing error that has spread black ink across the lower front of the book. How would you grade this? Thanks.
  15. malachirobertson
    This is a pretty clean copy of Watchmen 1, except for some small indentations on the cover, which I have found actually on multiple copies yet in varying places (last photo in particular). I would appreciate your grade estimate as is and with a press. I would assume these might come out in a press, but am not sure. Thanks.

    I apologize for the glare as I can't figure out the best lighting situation as I work in a basement.
  19. malachirobertson
    This Watchmen 1 could use a press, but my question is how much would it change the grade as there is some color break. Your advice is appreciated.

    I forgot to add that the last two photos are supposed to show an area where the black is faded on the back cover
