One thing I don't get though, I thought that if a particular defect was the norm than it would be fine for a 9.8. Like the small tear at the bottom of ASM 361. It is, there's a smattering of 9.8 Wolverine 35s in the census. The covers of this issue are made out of toilet paper though, which makes it that much harder to find in high grade.

the blob Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 We discussed it in the copper covers thread, but the last few issues of Ronin and some of the later Marvel Fanfare (the painted Sheena covers) certainly have that potential in 9.8. I wouldn't say the sheena books are necessarily dollar books, they sell for a few bucks on ebay, but a lot of books like that can be found in $1-$2 boxes if you hunt hard enough. and ronin 6 is not a book i have found in a dollar box, although i have all the others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gatsby77 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 My copy's got 9.8 potential - sadly, it's the Italian language version, and is square-bound. Totally different animal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattn792 Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 I swear I’ll never submit another copy of that book. Says mattn792 just about every year before he finds yet another “this could be it copy!” that ultimately comes back a 9.4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Says mattn792 just about every year before he finds yet another “this could be it copy!” that ultimately comes back a 9.4. Ah, I see the issue here. The problem is you're submitting what you think are 9.8 candidates...those get 9.4. Have to recalibrate! What you want to do is submit 9.9 candidates for 9.6, and gem-mint 10 candidates to get 9.8. mattn792 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
