heya. i don't know how many of y'all in the first degree of separation are into sequential art, but i've decided to sell off my comic books. those with interest should read on.

ok. got a pretty good set of matt wagner stuff on both comico and dark horse. looking through my next men found the first color print of hellboy ever. odd titles from here and there.

i am not about to grade each and every title. i will say the entire collection is very good to very fine with several near mint.

i have divided up into salable lots. i recommend serious interested parties make offer on lots as listed as i am not interested in breaking up any series collections. or buy the whole thing around $800.00.

these are all good reads for the most part. adult content mostly, not for the childrens.

anyhoo. after this offering, it goes to craigslist and then retail. get your best buy right now. cheers!
