The interesting thing about Hell's Angel is that the title changed to become Dark Angel after the Hell's Angels biker club sued Marvel UK over the name. The retitled series started at issue #6 and went to issue #16.

Your're wasting your time w/ "the process." Furthermore, Nobody wants A modern _CGC 9.6_ (or lower) in anything! Ever! They don't sell. Nobody wants them, because its 9.8+ or bust. > I urge you and everyone DO NOT SUPPOURT CGC. Its the equivalent of artificialy puppeted gas-lit stocks. CGC is selling 9.8 slabbed comics before the actual comic is even available for purchase. And that being one small problem amongst many.

It really depends on the book. You can get some significant increases in value by having them cleaned, pressed, and graded. That said, if you aren't interested in their value or making a profit, it can still be a good option for preserving them if you don't need to read them.

@julianthomas327726 күн бұрын
Did you fast track your submission, I ask because the faster you get a book through the grading process the less likely the book is able to be graded with any reversion present ? Some of those defects look like they may've just reverted over the time of the submission. Or could also have been from the handling process. Those defects don't look like something a presser missed imo. Congrats on your first submission, some cool books those grades aren't too shabby either!
