Condition & Value
Condition Grade
Very Fine/Near Mint (CGC 9.0)
Condition Details
Minor spine stress visible along the left edge. Bottom right corner shows slight blunting. There appears to be a possible ink signature on the lower-left center of the cover that requires authentication. Surface gloss remains high.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $20.00 - $35.00; Graded (CGC 9.8): $100.00 - $150.00. Value varies significantly depending on the authentication of the visible signature.
Recent Sales
Raw copies typically sell for $15-$40 depending on condition. Signed copies (unauthenticated) fluctuate based on provenance.
Grading Recommendation
If the signature is authentic but not witnessed, CGC would give it a 'Qualified' (Green) label. It is likely not worth grading unless the goal is protection or if the signature can be verified through CBCS Verified Signature program. Estimated grade 9.0 - 9.2.
Notable Features
Features cover art by the legendary Frank Frazetta. Contains an apparent signature on the front cover (possibly Glenn Danzig). First issue of the series published by Glenn Danzig's Verotik imprint.
Authentication Notes
The signature on the cover is the primary point of authentication. The print quality and paper stock appear consistent with mid-90s indie prestige format publishing. Staple placement and gloss are consistent with a genuine first printing.
