As you look at the content below, you will find many of your questions about how we grade and slab comic books answered. We also added some fun facts about various comic books for your amusement.

We follow a grading scale from 2.0 to 10.0.
If you have a truly mint comic book, which many comic books are, you will receive a 10.0 from us.
We’re going to check for number of pages, color of pages, how brittle pages may be, and overall quality of the boxes from the plates.
Each slabbed comic book will receive a custom label that identifies the book, the book makers, a grade, holographic RTS stickers, and encapsulation.
Each comic book comes with this guarantee on the back label:
RTS has graded and slabbed this comic book to the best of our abilities. Grades are carefully given and assigned by our team of graders. Our slab holders work to encapsulate the comic book, and keep them in present condition. Proper storage of the comic book away from the elements is key to preservation. Opening the holder will void any RTS grading, and destroy the preservation. As always, thanks for choosing Radical Titan Supreme and have fun!
We have key characteristics on our slabs and labels that allows us to verify that a comic book was indeed graded and slabbed by us.
Not all of the comic books that we sell are priceless wonders, and that’s okay. We sell all kinds of comics even for a buck or two. Reading copies may be in rough shape. We also do bulk deals on some comic books.

We have some of the best selling comic books that you will find on the market. X-Men 1 is said to have sold the most. Superman has always held value over time. Low numbered issues in good shape are valuable. Prices go up and down just like anything out there.
Our grading company Radical Titan Supreme is born out of our thrift store Superior Pickers located in Superior, WI. So much is thrown away that has value. We like to think we help to preserve lost treasures, and a bit of our history.
We are always on the hunt for golden age issues. There are a handful of comics we always have our eyes on for our customers. We’re better sellers than buyers though, so if you have something you want to sell there’s no promises with us.
It’s always exciting to ship your comic books off for grading. We are very customer oriented, so talking to us before sending off your comics is highly encouraged. We don’t want to be one of those companies that is hard to contact. So pick up the phone, or send us an email at your convenience.
As we’re collectors ourselves, we take the time to watch those great documentaries about comic books. One we highly recommend is “Batman & Bill.” According to the show, Bill Finger is the real creator of Batman.
Although our specialty is in comic books, we also sell some action figures, signs, rings and inflatables from the Marvel and DC universes.
Very often, comic books that relate to present or recent movies rise in value. We have seen that with our comic books as well. Spider-Man, Iron-Man, Fantastic Four, Avengers, Superman, Batman, and of course the Hulk are trending upwards.

Many times, when a comic book is missing covers or pages, the value plummets. Although this is true, it doesn’t mean that your comic book doesn’t have value. There are many slabbed copies of single pages out there for hundreds of dollars. Some people also do decoupage with these pages and make good money.
So many times we have seen restored copies actually lose their value. There are little tips and trick
The first comic book in the United States was “The Adventures of Mr. Obadiah Oldbuck.” It was sold in 1842.
The biggest comic book is Attack on Titan, a Japanese Manga series which measures 39 inches by 27 inches.
DC stands for Detective Comics, and Marvel refers to marvelous or a wonder to read.
The first Hulk was actually grey, and they switched to green as time went on.
One of the turtles was almost named Bernini.
