Popular Post Rip Posted May 1 Popular Post Share Posted May 1 (edited) Was lucky enough to get a few tough big ones recently. Eerie 43 CGC 9.4 very hard to find above 9.0 And then Creepy 9 CGC 9.8 with white pages to boot. (First Wrightson!) Never thought I would have a shot at getting a copy (Thanks to boardie Mstrange!!) Seemly like its almost impossible to find with a clean non-scraped up back cover. Hope to show another really tough Frazetta soon.

Popular Post batmiesta Posted May 3 Author Popular Post Share Posted May 3 TOZ # 2 is such a great cover and very hard to find in HG, took me years and several copies to find one worth grading in the grade I wanted.

Every time I think I’ll get a 9.8 I’m wrong. I’m more likely to get a 7.5! Personally I don’t consider those stress lines color breaking. batmiesta 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chevalmeow Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 (edited) Not sure if this information is correct so any help is greatly appreciated. I have begun to try and seek out the replica issues 1, 2, 3 & 30 of Vampirella as issued by Dynamite Publishing. I am not sure what versions were released. Grand Comic Database indicates #1 with the regular logo, a blue foil, a red foil and a platinum foil. There also seems to be a 2nd printing of this facsimile. I only have the regular logo issue: Issue #2 seems to have the regular cover and a silver foil logo. I have both of them: Issue 3 has the regular logo, a platinum foil cover, a red foil cover and a reprint of this facsimile. I have the regular logo and the platinum foil cover: Issue #30 has the regular blue logo but I am not sure if it had any other variants: So, does anyone have any of the issues that I am "missing"? It would help verify their existence! I would be nice to also know what the print runs are for each as they are described as being limited. Thanks!

Stevemmg Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 In the spring of 2019, they announced that they would be reprinting several issues for the 50th anniversary. The first issue shipped in July, coinciding with the 50 year month. . The database is correct on the first issue. Here are the print runs and retail prices of the first issue: Red printed cover, print run unknown, cover price retail of $6.99 Red foil cover, print run of 500, retail $50 Blue foil cover, print run of 300, retail $75 Platinum cover, print run of 200, retail $100 The second print they are likely referring to is the shattered cover released in October 2023.

Stevemmg Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 The second reprint, #2, shipped in December of 2019. I’ve never seen a variant version of this, and they didn’t solicit any through previews or their site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
