Owner's Description

This nice looking CGC graded 9.8 copy of Detective Comics 481 was added to this set on Wednesday, June 1, 2022, and replaced a 9.6 CGC graded copy. As of the CGC Census of May 31, 2022, it was one of two 9.8 copies of this issue; the highest graded copies, followed by 7 copies in 9.6 and 14 copies in 9.4, including my 9.4 Don Rosa Collection copy ("Historical" note: "update: as of April 15, 2018, there is one CGC graded 9.8 copy of this issue).

"Whether a 9.8 copy is "out there," of course, remains to be seen; yes, there is as of April 15, 2018, one CGC graded 9.8 copy. Although I do not recall the exact number of original owner (oo) copies of this book that I own, I "guesstimate" it is at least four. However, not having looked at my oo books in almost twenty-five years, give or take, I do not recall whether any of my oo Tec 481 copies do not have the pervasive Tec 481 "problem." (13-3-19-199-8...)

Oh, and lest I forget, another fantastic cover and a wonderful group of stories in this issue.

"Keeper, until I locate a typical CGC graded 9.8 copy."
