Mak420 Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Hey gang! Thanks for taking the time out to check out my comic. This comic seems pretty solid aside from some rust on the staples and a what looks like a water stain on the back cover. Thanks again.

My only concern would be the top FC (tape pull color loss?) Cool book Ive never seen! Mak420 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCOComics Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I'm going to be a hit harsher and go down to a 2.5. Possibly lower depending on how rust and water impact the interior. From recent experience, CGC is really harsh on rust and water damage. That big stain on the back likely effects multiple pages and the color loss on the front is likely from being stored in a damp environment. Does the rust on the staples migrate to the pages?

Funnybooks Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I’m going to go down to 3.0 It’s my feeling that the water damage to BC drops grade to a 4.0 max on initial inspection. However. add moderate defects to FC and rest of book and that takes it into 3.0 territory imo. Mak420, Raze and KCOComics 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rust so far is just on the staples, so I should probably act quick on this one. Also the water stain doesn’t seem to go through multiple pages. It’s as if it’s just on the back cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
