A GUIDE TO COMIC BOOK GRADES.
NM, Near Mint=Like New. You really have to look close to find any flaws at all. Might have one tiny color flake, or other very minor blemish.
VF/NM, Very Fine to Near Mint=Nearly perfect, but when you look close, there is a tiny flaw or two that keep it from near mint.
VF, Very Fine=Almost Like New with just a couple of tiny, barely noticeable flaws. One or two small color flakes along the spine are acceptable, but no folds or tears.
F, Fine=A nice looking comic. Still Glossy and handsome, but has more noticeable flaws such as several color flakes along the spine. The cover should still be firmly attached at the staples.
VG, Very Good=A decent looking comic that is showing more heavy wear. May have subscription crease down the middle. May have a loose staple.
G, Good=Well worn, but still sound. Generally the lowest grade that most collectors will accept for most books. Could be soiled, lack color gloss or have tape on it. Some drawing on cover is acceptable in this grade.
FA, Fair=Really beat. Can Have large chunks missing, a completely split cover, or coupons cut out. Cover may be scribbled on.
P, Poor= Just about as bad as you can get. A rag with missing pages. Could be coverless or barely there.
