You have a great eye. The inner battle to nab that was very real.  That’s such a tough cover- Deal of the month- nice grab 👍🏻

Epic Illustrated 34, 8.0-8.5. Another great looking book with fresh qualities but some non-color breaking issues and a little bit of soiling on the back cover (visible in scan). As the last issue in the run, this issue is a little bit more challenging in high grade. Also, includes a chapter of “The Last Galactus Story” by John Byrne. It's a real cliffhanger! $30  Sold to mstrange @ 20% off

Weird, Vol. 1, No. 11 (essentially issue 2), NM+ 9.6. Just a stunning example of this book which you never see in this condition. The census only has a single 9.6 and the next highest graded is a single 9.0. The cover is glossy with great colors. $400  Sold to artifiction

French Vampirellas

I've listed many of these on the boards over the years.  They're the first major publication of Vampirella outside of the US.  They were printed with heavy cardstock covers and excellent paper quality inside.  As such, they're very hard to grade as that cardstock shows pretty much every little thing.  Very cool covers, mostly reused from US issues.  Here are 3 issues I have available this evening.

[Randall Dowling]

Vampirella 3 (French), 7.0. Nice looking copy with some sort of schmutz on the cover. Otherwise solid and tight with white pages. These French copies are pretty tough in grade. And this cover is the classic Frazetta cover used from Vampirella 5 in the US. $70  Sold to mrlatko

Vampirella (French) 8, 9.0. An exceptional copy with just a few misc. dents but otherwise, looks like it's pretty much new. Gorgeous cover by Enric, previously used on Vampirella 17 in the United States. $70

[Randall Dowling]

Vampirella 11 (French), 8.5. This is a very pretty copy with just a small amount of general wear. Very tough to find these French Vampirellas in better condition. This cover was originally used in the US for Vampirella 24. $70

Vampirella 102, NM+ 9.4-9.6, $90  Sold to dover

You should get it!  Especially since I don't need it.

Vampirella 100, 8.5. A really pretty book that has some sort of non-color breaking vertical impressions on the front cover (could be production) and has a tiny mark near the spine where it looks like somebody tapped a pen (not color touch, just a stray pen mark that's very small). Otherwise, a very pretty copy of this key book.  $75
