Snikt! Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 I was going through I bunch of long boxes I bought about 10 years ago and I came across a horde of Wolverine Battlebooks. I've never seen one so did a little searching around and it looks like a few people are hunting them down from time to time but not very often. I think a previous thread from a few years back called them an "oddity". It appears that they are a game of sorts that you play in comic book format. So my question is, does anyone know anything about these books? Should I keep these around or should they go into my 90's drek box? I must have 50 of these things.

fastballspecial Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 There are some blue cover ones that sell very well. Ive sold an Iron Man and Wolverine blue print fairly fast last year I think. The battlebooks have an interesting history and they have a small buyers market for them in high grade.

GeeksAreMyPeeps Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 My first job out of college was working for a small company called Comicolor that did computer coloring for comics. Pretty sure we worked on them. I think Bill Tucci (creator of Shi) was involved in their creation (and we did work for his company, Crusade).

F For Fake Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I'd think they'd definitely sell. I don't run across them often, but when I do, they move pretty quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snikt! Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share Posted September 19, 2017 Thanks for all the info. Looks like i'll bag and board them up and file them away. Maybe even send one of the nicer ones off to get graded. I've never sold a comic (i'm more of a comic hoarder), but I'd hate to have all these books that don't mean much to me if there are people who having a hard time finding them. At least now if someone is looking for them they will find this thread and can PM me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maidenmate91 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Do you only have wolverines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snikt! Posted September 20, 2017 Author Share Posted September 20, 2017 Yes, only the black wolverine ones, 89 of them to be exact. So don't be shy if you want one (or 5 or 20 or 80). I bought about 20 long boxes of wolverine back issues a while back. Just so happens that shortly after I bought them life changed a bit and they went into "storage" at my moms house in my old bedroom. Just recently I got the comic bug again and went and grabbed all my comics and I'm going through them. These Battlebooks were in one of those long boxes that I never went through.
