Description: The Crow Dead Time #1 (of 3) Sumerian Comics 2024 CVR E 1:25 Alex Maleev Variant To start off Sumerian's "Year of The Crow", The Crow: Dead Time is returning to print in comic book format for the first time since 1996. Includes new covers by series artist Alex Maleev and many other talented artists. Joshua is left for dead by a band of renegade soldiers in the late 1860s. The crow that is perched nearby as he is dying tells him that time is no barrier to retribution, and the story comes forward to the present day where Joshua is confronted with a biker gang who resemble the soldiers. See photos for condition (and definitions below) to help you determine the comics condition. Near Mint (NM) condition On the ten-point grading scale, a lower grade like 9.2 will allow these defects in a greater quantity and degree than a higher grade like 9.8, which sometimes may have no discernible defects at all. We do not assign the grades 9.9 and 10.0 to any unslabbed "raw" comics. You will only see these ultra-high grades on comics slabbed by one of the grading services. There is such a small degree of separation between the grades 9.8, 9.9, and 10.0 that even the most experienced comic graders may disagree on which of these three grades to assign to an apparently flawless comic, so the highest grade we will assign to a comic is 9.8.A nearly perfect copy that looks brand new with only a few very minor defects. Acceptable minor defects on a NM copy include: a very small amount of spine stresses, very minor instances of denting (two or three at most), slight corner blunting, and minor (less than 1/8") bends without color breaks. Fine (FN) condition A FN copy has minor defects, but is in overall excellent condition. Most well-kept modern comics (especially if they have been read) fall into this grade. Acceptable defects on a FN are minor and include: Minor corner wear, a light accumulation of spine stress that may include color-break, a light accumulation of dents, and bends or folds less than 1/4" (note that on a FN copy, some color-break is allowed in a bend/fold). Very Good (VG) condition A comic in VG condition is considered "above average" but still displays some wear. In general, the eye appeal is somewhat reduced due to either an accumulation of minor defects or one or two moderate defects. Acceptable defects on a VG copy include: Slight spine roll, a moderate accumulation of spine stresses that may break color, a spine split of less than 1/2", minor water spotting or residue (less than the size of a dime), an impacted corner, and moderate foxing. Good (GD) condition A comic in GD condition shows some significant wear, but has not accumulated enough total defects to reduce eye appeal to the point that it is not a desirable copy. A GD copy may have an accumulation of minor defects or one or two major ones. Acceptable defects on a GD copy include: Spine roll, 1/2" to 1" spine splits or other tears, a cover or centerfold that is detached at one staple, discoloration due to oxidation, and a moderate accumulation of water damage or staining. Poor (PR) condition A PR is the lowest grade a comic book can receive as long as the story and art are complete. A PR copy will have virtually no eye appeal and will display major damage. A comic book in PR condition may have non-story elements such as coupons, ad pages, or Marvel Value Stamps cut or torn out of the book. Types of damage that place a comic in PR range include: A spine split of up to 2/3 the length of the book, a missing back cover provided the front cover is still attached, severe water damage or residue damage, mold, and paper deterioration due to oxidation. Comic books in PR condition may be missing up to 4 pages (two spreads) of story pages or display severe damage that affects the readability of the book Combined Shipping - $5.99 for the 1st and 1.29 for each additionalTo combine shipping add all items to cart and select the Blue Request Total button.
