There's always been more than one comic grading method. Not all books are meant to be encased in hard plastic shells with exorbitant grading fees.
Six things that make Hero Grader different
We protect each book with 2mil mylar bags and 1/16" thick acrylic backing board. Both are archival safe, American made, and will fit into normal comic storage boxes. Each book carries a label on the back indicating the title, issue number, grade, and a unique verifiable barcode with image.
We charge the same amount to grade any regular size comic book! Unlike other grading companies that charge additional fees based on age or value, we do not. Our current grading fee for all comics is only $12.99, or $14.99 for Magazines and Magazine sized comics.
Grading is based on the Overstreet scale, the industry standard for comic grading, providing both transparency and consistency. Books containing alterations are given an ”Altered" grade, while all others receive a standard grade.
Every book we grade is accompanied by scanned images showing the book as we saw it. Images are easily viewed on our website by scanning the QR code and entering the serial number found on the label.
Tired of waiting up to a year (or longer) to get your prized books back from other grading companies? We are too. Our grading process eliminates bottlenecks and ensures your books are returned to you without delay.
Started by Comic People
With over seven decades in and around comics, as retail store owners, collectors, and comic convention show-runners, we know what works — and what doesn’t. We’ve listened to the concerns of the collector community and have developed an improved grading option.
Located at 109 Gosling Road in Newington, New Hampshire, Stairway to Heaven Comics is a vibrant, welcoming hub for the New England comic and gaming community. Known for its clean, colorful, and well-stocked layout, the shop caters to both casual readers and dedicated hobbyists alike. Whether you are hunting down the latest weekly pulls from major and indie publishers, or diligently tracking the market value of vintage comic books to round out a collection, you will find an impressive inventory waiting for you.
The store features extensive boxes of back issues spanning everything from classic superheroes and westerns to highly sought-after variant covers, alongside a curated lineup of tabletop games and graphic novels. For collectors searching for rare finds from home, Stairway to Heaven Comics also operates an active online eBay shop to make hunting down keys even easier.
Conveniently situated just a short drive from the Portsmouth and Kittery tourist hubs, it's a must-visit destination for anyone looking to discover their next great story or uncover a hidden gem.
