I just grabbed a raw copy off eBay cheap and will see what I get as far as contents. And to further muddy up things, there is a graded copy also on eBay that listed “second printing” on the label!

I'm not aware of any Warren Vampirella's with variations in contents. There's the usual mish-mash of Newsstand, Direct, and Canadian variants on the latter part of the run, and the GCD shows a slight variant cover on #4, but I'm not sure that's not just an ink running out issue looking at it.

I'll triple-check my copy when I get home. Anybody else have an unslabbed copy handy? I have (if CGC is correct) a slabbed copy of Sulipas's described 4b (with 2 Corben stories) AKA GCD 4a. As OtherEric as pointed out, Sulipa's 4b matches exactly what GCG lists as their 4a (only 2 Corben stories). My unslabbed copy has 3 Corben stories BUT has "Pure As Snow" in place of "Power and the Gory" as per GCD 4b BUT is contrary to Sulipa's 4a. AND it has "The Woodlik Inheritance" in place of "Hunter" as per Sulipa BUT it does match GCD 4b. So, I seem to have version 4b of the GCD. To be clear (?), my issue 4 has: The Believer!

I'm starting to wonder if Sulipa is wrong about it being the rarer variant; if he got a batch from the Warren warehouse he could have a skewed view. Beautiful copy, by the way!

The lists overlap a lot, but I have “all the Archie Goodwin edited Warrens” on my list just as much as “all the Frazetta Warrens”. You'll note that list carefully avoids Eerie #1… Randall Dowling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
