Opinions on this Vampirella #1

[divad]

I don't have this book in hand yet, so all I have is this photo. Please give me your thoughts and opinions:

 

 

Thanks!

8.0/8.5 top has water damage??

[Jayman]

At first glance I would say 9.2 but looking closer I see what looks like some scuffing on areas on the cover

(under # 1 Sept.) and a (long vertical scuff starting from where it says "a warren magazine" down to her foot on the skull).

That combined with the bindery tears, minor spine tics and the slight color chip on the top edge I say 9.0.

Still a very nice copy!

I hope not! I see a bit of waviness in the photo, but there shouldn't be any (for what I paid for it!)

 

My guess/hope is that it is just the cover stock . . .

I noticed the slight waviness at the top but my guess is that it is not WD.

Could just be slight warping from humidity. No direct water contact, ie. no stains.

In duplicate. Without seeing Jayman's post I was going for a VF/NM 9.0. I have a CGC VF/NM 9.0 Psycho #14 (completely black cover) that has very comparable defects. I would feel secure with that, as long as that is not water damage creating the waviness.

That could be light scuffing on the left, but it almost looks like vl marker or perhaps photo flash relection?

 

On the right, I see what you're talking about . . .

 

I've been looking for a decent copy for about 6 months now -- can't wait to read it!

 

Then I am going to submit along with a VF copy of Vampi Annual #2 and perhaps a Spectacular Spider-Man #2

Oh Yes she is! Here's my copy from Doug Sulipa 9.2 with a shot at 9.4
