House on the Borderland, too.  Some nice books.

Thanks!  I was very fortunate to get this copy.  Love it!

Great score.  Which 20 are missing?

Got my latest from Steve in 4 days.  Extremely well packed.  One of the best graders and sellers on the boards.

Spirit 16 9.0 $25 The final Warren issue before it goes over to those newcomers at Kitchen Sink Press, it's a giant sized affair going out with a bang.  "Who Killed Cox Robin?" inside.  Tough to find one this nice.

Yeah I went a bit ballistic on that session. There were a lot of stronger bids than I anticipated. 😂 again I'm certain we unknowingly punished each other. It'll be a bit before I get to mine but will share a few when so. 

I did end up with the Hell-Rider #2. Didn't expect to need to go that high. But it's a book that has been relatively more difficult to find for me in HG and with it being Don Rosas old copy I sprung. 

Two other highlights that I was prepared to combat on were:

Dracula Lives #9 CGC 9.8 w

- I've found this book exceptionally more difficult in HG than the surrounding copies. Might just be me. It's my favorite cover of the run. Luis Dominguez really brought it with this one. 

Eerie #60 CGC 9.8 w

- Ken Kelly masterpiece. Figured there was a good chance I would never see another this nice.  

I have had the same experience with Dracula Lives #9.  Got a nice copy now but it was really hard to find.

Eerie 54 CGC 9.4 $90 ow/w Brutally difficult period to get high grade copies with black front and back covers. This is a top 5 copy of another Sanjulian covered beauty. More of the recurring Mummy and Werewolf stories within.

I just got this modern Vampirella grail back from CGC today. It's a pain to photograph correctly, but it looks so much better in person. I actually rolled the dice and sold my 9.0 copy before I sent this one to be graded. Jackpot on the upgrade! 

Vengeance of Vampirella #1 Royal Blue Edition

 

 

You had 2 copies?!!!

I have a few of these magazines with awful miscuts much worse that were never trimmed.  Just the poor quality of the printing/assembly process.  That Vampirella 1 isn't too bad and it looks to be a nice grade but I would rather have a lower grade copy without cut off words. 

+1

A glance at copies sold at heritage suggests that there's an unusual amount of space underneath the text at the bottom as well, possibly even some white paper at the bottom of the cover which may or may not be the interior pages.  So my very inexpert guess would be bad miscut rather than trimming.  But I'm sure others more familiar with the book could assess that better.

It is a miscut cover, shifted towards the top.  Otherwise, it is a nice copy.
