Provenance One owner book, I bought this when it was published from a local comic book shop then bagged and boarded it. The comic book has been in storage since then, and only recently was submitted to CGC for grading. Shipping & Handling Free shipping via USPS Priority Mail to continental United States. The CGC slab will be placed between cardboard protectors, bubble wrapped, then placed gingerly into a medium-sized USPS Priority Mail box. Sales are final on all CGC graded and encapsulated comic books. Free Appreciation Comic Book Free Near Mint bagged/boarded unread unslabbed comic book from the 1990's if you purchase this book. During the 1990's I purchased a bunch of comic books at Local Comic Book Stores (LCS). Most of these books do not warrant getting slabbed by CGC, and they are too much trouble to sell raw, therefore I've decided to give them away on eBay orders. Once you make a purchase then state which comic brand you prefer for your freebie token of gratitude: D.C., Dark Horse, Image (includes an array of labels), Independent, Marvel, Valiant, or Vertigo. If you don't than I will select something akin to your purchase.
