Description: All Scans and Photos are of the actual books. NO Stock Photos All Books come bagged and Boarded. As a 40 year serious collector I have acquired a vast inventory of most major Marvel and DC titles, as well as many Independents, Graphic Novels, Trades and hard Cover books. I believe my grading to be conservative and based on one THING, Can the book pull the said grade from Third Party Graders Like CGC, and CBCS. Ive submitted many books for grading and I have also cracked out plenty of CGC and CBCS books for my personal collection over the years. I will securely and promptly ship all orders and will be more than happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have. I will continue adding more comics, cards and books to my store here. Thank You for stpping by for a look. *BATMAN #497 (CBCS 9.8 NM-MT ) Bane Breaks Batman's Bcak / 1993 This is the direct edition with the overlay cover. Bane breaks Batman's back in Batman KnightFall Part 11. Home turf does not prove an advantage when Bane breaks Batman's back in the Batcave in "The Broken Bat." KnightFall continues in Detective Comics (1937- ) #664. Written by Doug Moench. Pencils by Jim Aparo. Inks by Dick Giordano. Cover by Kelley Jones. 36 Pages *Here is a VERY overlooked and under valued Batman book. The book features part 11 of the epic Knightfall storyline that ran through out many of the Batman titles way back in 1993. This issue contains the the Breaking of Batman in which the popular Bat foe breaks Batman's back. The book has been grade a beautiful 9.8 NM-MT by one of the leading comic book authentication services in the hobby, CBCS. The book features a perfect cover wrap, Sharp Edges and corners and White pages. The case is in nice condition with very minimal wear. Any CGC/CBCS case may have minor imperfections including Newton rings, scuffs, standard surface wear, or minor cracks. CGC & CBCS considers these defects acceptable, as do we. If there is any significant damage to the slab it will be noted in our description, and we will not list any slabbed comics with a damaged case that compromises the integrity of the grade. I realize the decision to purchase Key books can be a difficult choice given the ever escalating cost involved with any major KEY book such as this. Ive been a top seller of comic and cards on most major platforms for over 20 years. I offer fast secure shipping and my packaging is second to none in the hobby. My goal is a smooth hassle free transition of this gorgeous book to your door. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me. I will be happy to answer any questions you may have. Thank You for stopping by for a look! Be sure to check my other listings for more high grade cgc & cbcs key marvel & dc comic books!
