Young and untested, the Secret Warriors are the offspring of the most powerful forces on Earth - and with Fury's guidance, they might just have what it takes to save the world. But their mission is upended when Fury uncovers a bombshell Hydra conspiracy that reaches back for decades to the very beginnings of S.H.I.E.L.D.! As the Howling Commandoes reunite, and the Secret Warriors face Norman Osborn's Dark Avengers and Thunderbolts, the Leviathan stirs in the darkness, preparing to take on Hydra! The only group that can stop either of these world-conquering organizations is Nick Fury's Secret Warriors. But are these young soldiers unraveling under the pressure? I am not a comics grader, but I try to be as thorough as possible when assessing books for any flaws. I don't believe in using a number grade system - to me they are mostly utilized as a method to be ambiguous about exact condition and/or individual imperfections - but I do attempt to describe anything other than minor cover shelf-scuffing/scratching in detail. If a certain flaw discussed below does not mention that it affects inside pages, then it does not. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This copy is in very good condition, with a solid spine and excellent inside pages (photo#14 example). Other than 1 tiny edge ding, it has few and lesser signs of primarily external wear. **Photo#4: -Upper spine corner: Light scuffing. **Photo#5: -Lower spine corner: Light scuffing, small/light indent near its middle. **Photo#6: -Front cover top edge: ~1/2" scuff/indent near spine corner, ~5 small ones spread around the edge.-Outer corner: Tiny scuff/bend. **Photo#7:-Front cover bottom edge: Tiny ding/indent near outer corner (photo#10 w/illumination) that shows on ~1/4 pages, otherwise light if any shelf-wear.-Outer corner: Very light ~3" indent around the corner. Tiny indent/scuff/bend/cover peel at extreme corner. **Photo#8: -Back cover top edge: Tiny ding/scuff near the spine corner, otherwise little if any shelf-wear/scuffing.-Outer corner: Tiny indent/scuff/bend, goes thru ~10 pages as a light bend. **Photo#9:-Back cover bottom edge: 2 tiny scuffs around its middle, otherwise little if any shelf-scuffing/wear. -Outer corner: Light ~1/2" indent/bend around corner. **Additionally: Front cover's spine edge possesses 4 tiny/light indents. Light ~1/2" scratch/indent near lower spine corner (photo#11 w/illumination). Tiny one nearby. Small crease/depression near bottom edge, shows on ~10 pages as a light indent. Back cover has a light ~2.5" indent/scratch near the lower spine corner (photo#12 w/illumination). 3 tiny ones near top outer corner, with a nearby very light ~2" indent/depression (photo#13 w/illumination). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I both buy to read as well as sell TPBs on here, so I understand how aggravating it is to receive a comic damaged in transit. I always pack books firmly between pieces of cardboard (among other materials/layers) via Gemini Comic mailers or bubble mailers depending on size; usually utilizing boxes for larger lots. If you have any questions or would like any additional photos, feel free to let me know. I'm always happy to combine shipping costs - either message me before completing purchase for a pre-payment price adjustment, or alternatively I can provide a refund afterwards. Thanks, and have a spectacular day!
