Frequently asked questions

What are the policies on pre-orders?

Superhero Empire product screening strives for products to be roughly 9.2 NM- or better based on our assessment unless otherwise stated (item grades are subjective). Minor manufacturing defects may be present. Our goal is to get everyone the best quality book possible but limited supply from distributors may prevent us from our dream of getting everyone 9.8 candidates every time.

Preview artwork may differ from actual comic cover when produced by the publisher. Products ordered prior to release are allocated and may have limited availability. If damages or allocation result in a shortage of inventory, customers will be notified and refunded.

Purchasing of retailer incentive or exclusive covers without meeting the incentive requirement will result in product cancellation and a refund will be issued.
