I was unaware of this book being rare/collectable until I was entering all my comics into the database. I have a very good copy of this I bought new upon release. I have never sent anything off to be graded before, and was wondering if this book would be a good candidate for that.

This is my first time visiting the forums as well. I need to get here more.

Is your copy the newsstand version? If yes, you have a nice book. If yours is the direct version (no UPC), it's only worth about $3. I would say it would be but if you're doing it to turn a quick buck, keep in mind the law of supply and demand. "Sold" auctions are the best way to gauge demand (not those for sale as they are not guaranteed sales".

  • The 2nd Printing of this issue was indicated on the indicia and not on the cover with the Roman Numeral II.
  • "The Adventure Begins" instead of "Free Poster Inside" that is on 1st print
  • Very Rare
  • II not on Cover, 2nd Printing listed in Indicia

Thanks for responding. Mine is the newsstand version. It's the real deal. I can't figure out how to attach an image, or I'd post a pic of it. So, do you think it would be a good candidate to have graded? I've never had a comic graded before. If so, which company? This grading thing, although I've known about it all along, is new to me. I've never considered doing it until now.
I'm not looking to sell it, but I'm not against the idea either. I'm not collecting as much as just tending my collection nowadays.

I would say yes to getting it graded.
