Comic books are a sight to behold – colorful, vibrant, and packed with amazing stories that have been providing readers with adventures for decades!  Comic book collecting is a pastime that has become increasingly popular over the years, with thousands of collectors worldwide spending a considerable amount of time and money to get their hands on coveted issues. However, handling, storage, and time can take a toll on the condition of comic books, resulting in torn pages, dirty covers, and creases.  The Comic Doctor can help improve the condition of your comics while CGC Comic Grading service can help you out by grading them

What Is CGC Comics Grading?

Over time, the condition of comic books can diminish, decreasing the value of the comic. To prevent this, collectors often invest in CGC comic grading services. The Certified Guaranty Company (CGC) is a third-party grading service that evaluates the condition of a comic book and assigns it a grade on a 10-point scale. This grade represents the condition of the comic, with 10 being the best condition.

As the comic book grading industry standard, CGC’s team of graders thoroughly evaluates the comic’s condition, including the cover, pages, color, and structural quality. After grading, they seal it in a tamper-evident, archival-quality holder to protect it from damage and to preserve its condition.

Before Grading your Comics with CGC?

While a comic encapsulated in a CGC “slab” can protect a comic’s condition, it cannot “fix” some of the physical defects a comic might have. This is where The Comic Doctor comes in – the comic industry’s leader in comic book conservation. Their team of experts work tirelessly to enhance the appearance of comic books, preserving them for future generations of collectors.

The Comic Doctor’s services range from cleaning and pressing comics to facilitating grading system provided by CGC comics grading.   The Comic Doctor is really your one-stop-shop for cleaning, pressing and grading!

Their conservation process involves analyzing the comic’s condition, identifying the necessary conservation techniques, and performing the work.
