Jayman Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 To all of the magazine gurus here: Is the Vampirella Special Hardcover edition in Spanish only, or is there English versions also? I seem to remember someone posting theirs but can’t recall what language it was printed in. Any help is appreciated! jimjum12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherEric Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 I don't have it, but there is an English language hardcover. Supposedly limited to 500 copies, I believe, and supposedly about half were so badly made they weren't sold. Not positive it they sold 500 of an original 1000, or 250 of an original 500.

Do you happen to know if the print runs were the same for the English and Spanish editions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevalmeow Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 (edited) It was published in Spain(?) for Warren in English by Joseph Toutain via his publishing company Toutain-Editor. This English edition was limited to 500 signed & numbered copies. Many were damaged due to poor printing/manufacturing quality. At the same time it was published in Spanish for European consumers. Don't know what the print run was for that. I have both the Warren, English and Spanish version.

OtherEric Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 I have no idea what the Spanish print run was. Also, posting a picture of the English paperback, just to add some color to the thread. I really wouldn't mind upgrading my copy some day, it's fairly beat. Artifiction, Brandon Shepherd, Randall Dowling and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am currently looking at a Toutain Spanish edition but would prefer an English copy if possible. jimjum12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axe Elf Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Hardcover is out of my league, but my $41 softcover looks pretty good in a bag (just don't take it out to inspect the back cover). batmiesta, OtherEric, jimjum12 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not read through all of the Spanish version but what I did see was exactly as the English version. I believe that they ought to be exactly the same as my understanding is that they were printed at the same time. In his book, "A Gathering Horror", David Horne lists the Spanish version as having 1500 copies. He was not positive and stated that his information was derived from a back cover ad from a magazine which stated that the HC was limited to 1500.

Popular Post Jayman Posted April 4 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 4 Well the squeaky wheel gets the oil after all! After starting this thread inquiring about this book, I was offered a copy. @Stevemmg was kind enough to let one of his go, thanks again Steve! It truly is a wonderful book.
