Daredevil 132 CGC 9.4 white monster book

An absolutely stunning copy of Daredevil 132 30-cent price variant graded by CGC as 9.4 with White pages was auctioned by CGC this month on ebay by ebay seller pickycollector ( Feedback Score Of 1213Red star icon for feedback score in between 1,000 to 4,999).

After spirited bidding, the book sold for $447 after shipping from Canada.  This is over a 50% increase from the last sale of a 9.4 copy of this book.  Of course, this book is rare enough that the last sale of this book in this grade was over five years ago in February 2006.  The last sale of a 9.6 was also in 2004 for $500, so I expect a 9.6 auctioned today would go for $750 to $1000.

This copy is one of only five in 9.4 with only two copies graded higher.  It is one of the 30 cent variant keys for two reasons.  First, it is an early appearance of Daredevil's arch-foe Bullseye.  Secondly, the black cover and the regular price box make it very tough to find, especially in high grade.


If only Ben Affleck had made a decent movie out of Frank Miller's Daredevil work, this book would be joining the four figure club.  Easily.
