A free comic book appraisal app helps identify issue, publisher, grade clues, key status, completeness, and whether a professional appraisal is needed.
Auction records are market evidence, not a final appraisal. Condition, authenticity, provenance, completeness, edition, demand, and market timing can materially change value.
Photo checklist
- Photograph front cover, back cover, indicia, issue number, publisher, date, pages, centerfold, signatures, and slab label if graded.
- Do not press, clean, tape, or remove a comic from a slab before documentation.
- Note spine ticks, tears, missing coupons, restoration, brittleness, water damage, writing, and detached staples.
