| Archie, Oct-82 | 1st Appearance Of Cheryl Blossom
#4 in this year's Top 100. Angelo notes: In March of 2024 a 6.5 CGC sold for $260.In December of 2023 an 8.5 CGC ow/w sold for $555. First appearance of Cheryl Blossom! This mega key Price Variant is really tough to find in very high grades and scarcely comes up for sale. Very early CPV Cheryl Blossom appearances are great investments. Ben notes: Note that Archie only introduced direct editions much later, so for earlier Archie issues like this one there was only newsstand distribution and thus two total types (the two different cover priced newsstand versions) instead of three; one thing this difference means is that the percentage of total copies that are the CPV is much higher when compared to Marvel/DC CPVs. Sal notes: This book is easily the most unnoticed key CPV out there. I have personally seen dozens of auctions over the years where the seller had no clue it was the Canadian Price Variant version. Demand has weakened for all early Cheryl Blossom appearances unfortunately. Conan notes: Example variant sales at MyComicShop: a raw GD 2.0 on 7/10/2024 for $91.85 (buy it now), a CGC 6.5 on 1/23/2024 for $210.00 (buy it now) Doug notes: 1st appearance of CHERYL BLOSSOM in Dare to be Bare = 5 page-s; CGC label note: 1st appearance of Cheryl Blossom. 75 cent cover price. |
