Light wear, minor spine stress, VERY FINE/NEAR MINT. I'm generally a hard grader but comic book grading is still subjective. As always, study my scan and make up your own mind about the condition. Be sure this copy would have a place in your collection.

Although comic book grading is still somewhat subjective, you can expect that the grade I assign to a comic will be accurate. I find that I'm more strict a grader than most people dealing on eBay. I've been dabbling in collectible comics since the late-1960s and participated in the WSA program (#1305) which provided a code of ethics for comics dealers. I've contributed material to the Overstreet Price Guide and published articles in a variety of comic book related periodicals including Comic Book Marketplace, Comic Source, Golden Age Greats, Best of the West, and others.
