A sharp, high-grade copy of Invincible #45 that fits perfectly into any Invincible, Image Comics, or Robert Kirkman-focused collection.The condition box is filled with a selection even though it doesn't pertain to this listing, as it has been graded by an independent third party in CGC. It is a mandatory item to state, but doesn't apply a CGC book as it has two separate components, a casing and an interior book. Any defects would be listed within the description as a result.
