This is a well-preserved copy of Locke & Key / Sandman Universe: Hell & Gone #1 (Cover B by JH Williams III). The book presents nicely with a clean front and back cover, but close inspection reveals minor spine stress ticks near both staple areas. Interior pages appear clean, white, and free of damage.

Press candidate: good

The minor spine ticks and stress lines could potentially be improved with professional pressing, possibly bringing the book up to a 9.4 or even 9.6 grade.

3 defects identified

minor crease — left spine area, mid-cover: Small spine tick/stress line visible along the left edge near the staple area
minor crease — spine, upper area: Light spine stress/tick visible near upper staple
minor other — spine, full length: Minor spine stress with very slight waviness along the spine edge
