A handy tool for any serious comic book collector. This book contains prices of most comics, has a section on grading, and also contains a short section on the history of comics. I thought there was far too much advertisment, and not enough information on comic collecting and grading. A little bit too pricey for a book full of ads. Not as good as past publications of this book. Because it contains nothing special, and since the prices are not realistic of the going market; I rate it 3 stars out of 5.
