AVENGERS #55 (1968) FN/VF 1ST ULTRON KEY BOOK Roy Thomas + John Buscema

Avengers volume 1, #55 in FN/VF condition. Roy Thomas story, John Buscema Cover and Artwork. Very nice upper mid-grade Silver Age Key book. Good color and page quality, pages are soft, supple and clean, OW/CR pages.

Non-color breaking bends in upper right back cover that go through some of the pages. This could possibly be corrected with a pressing.

The first two photos are actual HD scans of the comic book. You will receive the actual comic in the photos. As everyone knows, grading can at times be subjective. Additional photos are provided for you to make the best decision before purchasing.

I use the Overstreet grading scale in determination for the grades listed, but look at the photos for your assessment. 7.0 FINE/VERY FINE (FN/VF): An above-average copy that shows minor wear but is still relatively flat and clean with outstanding eye appeal. A small accumulation of minor bindery/printing defects is allowed. Minor cover wear beginning to show, with interior yellowing or tanning allowed, possibly including minor creases.

Corners may be blunted or abraded. Inks are generally bright with a moderate reduction in reflectivity. Stamped or inked arrival dates may be present. No obvious soiling, staining or other discoloration except for minor foxing.

The slightest spine roll may be present, as well as a possible moderate color break. Staples may show some discoloration. Slight staple tears and a slight accumulation of light stress lines may be present. In rare cases, a comic was not stapled at the bindery and therefore has a missing staple; this is not considered a defect. Any staple can be replaced on books up to Fine, but only vintage staples can be used on books from Very Fine to Near Mint.

Mint books must have original staples. Paper is (no worse than) tan to cream, but not brown. No hint of acidity in the odor of the newsprint.

Minor interior tears at the margin may be present. Check back often for NEW listings! This item is in the category "Collectibles\Comic Books & Memorabilia\Comics\Comics & Graphic Novels".
