Spawn #9 Image Comics 3/93 Direct Edition White Pages CGC Graded

Spawn #9 (3/93) from Image Comics is a key issue renowned for the first appearance of Medieval Spawn and Angela, two of the franchise’s most iconic characters. This Direct Edition version features white pages and was manufactured with a rigid card stock cover and no UPC code on the back—distinguishing it from the Newsstand Edition, which has a yellow UPC and newsprint interior. Both versions are recognized by CGC as distinct variants due to these manufacturing differences.

Graded by CGC, this copy is professionally authenticated and preserved in high-grade condition (e.g., CGC 9.8 or higher), ensuring exceptional page quality, centering, and long-term value. While Direct Edition copies were far more common—accounting for approximately 98% of submissions on the CGC census—high-grade examples remain highly sought after by collectors. The Direct Edition’s clean, premium paper stock and association with Todd McFarlane’s landmark run enhance its desirability.
