shane1956 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 With only 76 graded 9.0 or higher blue universals on the census this is a scarce book when it comes to high grade. It's Dare Devil as we know him with the red costume. One of my favorite covers as well. Any other members out there willing to show their copy? Here's mine.

namisgr Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 (edited) Since you made the club exclusive for high grade, this former copy can't be a member: But this one could, especially since it was graded many years ago, wasn't pressed, and is nicer than many of today's 8.5s: Edited September 16, 2017 by namisgr romanheart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grube09 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Hard to find this book without that right edge top to bottom miscut as well. That drives my OCD crazy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That drives my OCD crazy! DD #7 might just win the prize for a SA Marvel with THE MOST production defects on a single book. Ink transfer, Marvel chipping, printing roller marks, bent staples, miswraps, miscuts. Whatever Marvel was doing when this book was printed is a mystery but I've never seen one issue prone to so many defects.

Straw-Man Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 i remember not being happy the day i bought one off the spinner; i loved the yellow costume as a young boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shane1956 Posted September 23, 2017 Author Share Posted September 23, 2017 Roy, didn't you have one in high grade? I would like to replace mine with a 9.2 a some point but have been actively looking for almost 3 years with zero luck. With the number of Dare Devil collectors out there and the limited numbers I think the high grades have room to go . That's assuming people are willing to part with them.

No such thing as "printing roller marks" because the rollers never touch the paper as it's being printed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've owned several in 9.4, 9.2 and down to the VF range. Haven't owned one in years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shane1956 Posted October 2, 2017 Author Share Posted October 2, 2017 Great book! With only 22 9.2s out there that was a great find. How long have you had it? I've been searching for years now to upgrade my 9.0 to a 9.2 but near impossible to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straw-Man Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 a couple spine-stresses out of the high-grade range, but my little raw, white-paged one is very glossy and pretty, and i've never felt moved toward upgrading it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
