Agreed, I’d love to see the comparison, if it looks different at all from when it was a 9.0.

The a ASM 129 original art is a big yawner  compared to this when they go head to head in January. Thank goodness this piece is at heritage too so you don’t have to wait forever for the auction to be over

3- questions;

1-has there ever been a page quality upgrade on mega key...

2-does the page quality factor in on the overall grade...either officially or unofficallly?

3-If so...how much in your opinion?

For CGC I don’t think it’s incorporated into the grade but it creates grade caps. They actually outline it pretty well on their grading scale page.

Cr/ow max grade = 9.6 (with rare exceptions, although I’ve never seen a 9.8 with less than off white)

Light tan max = 8.5

slightly brittle Max is 6.5

brittle max is 3.5

Yea,  a lot of reading between the lines.

It seems no one is giving up any specific details of this book's history since it left Sean's hands nearly 30 years ago. (other than it was a 9.0)

Even the board's Master Detective - MasterChief can't find pictures of that elusive third 9.0 copy (and that says a lot!) that others are confirming is indeed this 9.4 copy.

The bread crumbs seem to be dropped, but no one seems to be spilling the beans! (a wonderful Thanksgiving stuffing recipe BTW!)

DC WHAT IF? 

Let's assume this book taps out at or around the same as last weeks TEC 27 at 1.5 Mil ( Which may be a stretch imho). WHAT IF you could pick just ONE of them. 

What book do you take? Please don't say Action  #1, Whiz #2 or Dumbo #0  Nothing else is on the table.

I am torn but I go for the Batman # 1 it's just amazing and might be the best damn comic I have ever seen! WOW!

The Windy City copy of Marvel Comics #1 went from C/OW to OW pages.

Took a couple tries to get there...

Maybe they think no one cracks the case?  Or have the standards diminished over time?  Clearly, the photo tech has improved.

Wow, any idea the cost involved in upgrading this book...we know the $$$ amount of this increase in value....but is  there  real TRUE value or is is hyped up?
