Eerie Tops Strange

As far as I can tell, the last time we saw a comic book on Top eBay Chess Items by Price (March 2010), was Strange Adventures on eBay (August 2020). I recorded the vital statistics for that item, noting,

The item pictured below was titled 'Strange Adventures #35 CGC 8.5 OW-W DC-1953 Chess Cover'. It sold for US $643.93 after 26 bids from 12 bidders.

The vital statistics for the item pictured on this post below were not so clear. The title, 'Eerie Adventures #1 Ziff Davis Comics 1951 Golden Age Skeleton Chess Cover', was clear enough, but the 'Best offer accepted' price was not. In the list of top items by descending price, the item appearing just above it was listed at '$20.06 Buy It Now + $1,029.86 shipping'. The item appearing below it was listed at '$975.99 or Best Offer + $64.00 shipping'.

The 'Eerie Adventures' comic was listed at '$1,000.00 Best offer accepted + $47.59 shipping'. Whatever the real selling price, it was considerably more than the 'Strange Adventures' comic.

The description repeated the title and added only,

This comic has bends, tears, and creases. Small piece out of right side of cover.

I searched my collection of past eBay images and found four instances of the same comic. I don't keep vital statistics for most eBay images -- they are only important if I use the item in a post -- but I do keep descriptions. The best description was from the first instance of the item, recorded back in December 2001:-

Eerie Adventures #1 by Ziff-Davis in the Winter of 1951. THIS ONE HAS IT ALL! Artwork by Bob Powell and Bernard Krigstein; used in Seduction Of The Innocent (SOTI); headlights, bondage, and painted "Good Girl Art" cover; and a CHESS game cover for the enthusiasts of that game! Solid complete glossy copy with supple creamy pages. Would grade higher than g/vg but for 1" corner off top right, 1/2" tear outer edge at girl's neck (see scan). Guide range is $40/120/325.

Two more descriptions, both from 2006, provided a few more details:-

One of the all time best chess cover ever ! Two great Bob Powell stories inside. • Photo size is 7 by 9-3/4 inches.

The 'Eerie' cover lists the price at ten cents. What does a newly published comic cost today?
