This piece was first auctioned on ComicLink in October of 2010. I passed on bidding then as I already had a 9.8 graded copy of this issue. I did win several other Rocky Mountain examples. I kept a list of books I missed and wondered many times over the years if they would reappear. 15 years later this book along with six other Rocky Mountain examples I missed reappeared on ComicLink. I’m thrilled to have this piece in my collection.
This cover reminds me of the films Poltergeist and The Ring.
