For your kind consideration is this copy of The Transformers #8 from 1985. This Copper Age Marvel book features the 1st appearance of the Dinobots (Grimlock, Sludge, Slag & Swoop). Mark bright provided the cover art and the story, "Repeat Performance," was written by Bob Budiansky and penciled by William Johnson.      

Look, we've all had it happen. You purchase a comic book on some selling platform, whether it's an auction site or live selling app. You're all excited because you got the book for a "steal" (the seller even said so). You then receive the book in the mail only to discover that the centerfold is detached or the MVS is missing or there's staining/tanning/foxing on the back cover that the seller never revealed in their description. Well, that won't happen here. I reveal every noticeable defect on every raw book I sell. I provide numerous pics of the book from various angles. I also give you an idea of the grade of the book. In other words, I'm as transparent as possible, all the time, every time.          

In the title, I refer to the condition of this book as "NM 9.4ish." Translation: were you to send this book in to be professionally graded and slabbed, I estimate it would come back somewhere between a 9.2/NM- (near mint minus) and a 9.6/NM+ (near mint plus). Please understand, I am NOT a professional grader. This is only MY best guess, based on hundreds of submissions to CGC, of the grade of this book, nothing more. I share this grade estimate to give you a better understanding as to the condition of the book and because I'm just that nice. 

As evidenced by the pics I have provided, here are the noticeable flaws with this book: a few spine stress lines on each cover (pics 1-4 & 11). The book is complete and the staples are tight at the cover and centerfold (pic 12). Please view all 12 pics I have provided to help you determine YOUR grade estimate for this book, thanks. 

FYI, I include a free, raw mystery book with every purchase, usually from the same title...just a little incentive for you, that's all.

Your newly acquired copy of The Transformers #8 will be shipped to you, via USPS ground advantage mail, no later than the day after receiving payment (unless, of course, that day is a Sunday), bagged, boarded, swaddled in a feathery bed of bubble wrap and secured within a Gemini comic book mailer. 

Please check out my other listings. I add new books all the time.
