CGC Grading Results Are In For This RARE Marvel Comic!

Marvel Tales 2 UKPV Episode 4.

Today we’re going to reveal the final grade we got from CGC on a very cool Silver Age comic book published by Marvel Comics. This is Marvel Tales #2, and it includes the very first reprints of both Avengers #1 and X-men #1. This copy is the exceedingly rare UK Price Variant, with only one singular low-grade copy in the CGC Census at the time we submitted our copy. It also happens to be a square-bound comic book so needed to be treated just a little bit differently from a normal saddle-stitched comic book. In today’s video we are going to review our journey with this comic, and find out if we hit our goal of achieving the highest grade in the CGC Census!
