Comic Description

Condition & Value
Condition Grade
Fine/Very Fine (CGC 7.0 - 7.5 Est.)
Condition Details
Visible price stickers on the protective bag (not the book itself, but potentially hiding defects). Visible color-breaking spine stress, blunting on the upper-right corner, and minor edge wear along the bottom. Significant shelf wear and curvature due to storage method.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $5 - $15 USD / Graded: $30 - $50 USD. Market for non-English foreign editions is generally lower for standard modern issues.
Recent Sales
Comparable non-key 90s German Spider-Man issues typically sell in bundles for €2-€5 or individually for $10 including shipping on eBay.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The cost of CGC/CBCS grading exceeds the current market value of the comic. The presence of foreign language text usually lowers the ceiling for common modern issues unless it is a rare variant or key first appearance.
Notable Features
Foreign Language Edition (German). Features 'Mein Mörder... Chameleon!' tagline on cover. Includes regional price box in Deutsche Marks (DM 4,95).
Authentication Notes
The high-gloss cover finish, Marvel/Panini branding, and specific regional price indicators are consistent with legitimate European prints from the late 1990s.
