A beautiful book, except for the curse of cream/off-white pages. In my mind, the market penalizes books too much for that characteristic, as I won this book for less than some 9.4s. At any rate, defect and all it is one if four highest graded as of 6/2020. This book was acquired in the March 2020 CL auction.

Issue #11 is a mini-key, in that it features the first appearance of Mira, who was a prominent figure in the Aquaman movie and played by Amber Heard. Because of the black cover, it is a particularly tough issue to find in high grade and tends to be the most expensive of any Aquaman issue, including #1. The top copy in the census, a 9.4 Pacific Coast pedigree, recently came on the market and sold for about $30,000. While this copy was much cheaper, it is currently one of the four highest graded copies by CGC. Acquired in the September 19, 2019 CC auction.
