Nate Piekos is best known as a letterer. He's created fonts and done title design and lettering for DC, Marvel, Image, and Dark Horse. His work has had an Eisner nomination and won several lesser awards.

But he also published a webcomic, back in the day. Realm of Atland is a heroic adventure that's a little silly at times. Piekos has long since allowed the site to vanish from the web but you can still read it via the Wayback Machine. He also made it available in print comic form as the self-published Atland. Individual issues are relatively elusive; I don't have anywhere near the full run.

But the first Atland story in a comic book isn't in Atland. It's in this obscure book, Digital Webbing Presents 22.

Maybe I've blown a gasket but was that supposed to be the Ezekiel character in madame web?  :shy:

Edit to add congrats on the first digger and overall grades!

BTW I own a copy too slabbed, not as good a grade, but I hadn't heard the backstory much if at all, but good to know so thanks

I have another copy at a 9.4. I didn’t care for Madame Web either, but I did pick up this one at a LCs in Eau Claire, WI back in June:

Awesome awesome awesome 💯  I thought the movie was campy like with what's her name looking and acting like a cheerleader, I kept expecting Freddy or Jason lol but I didn't think it wasn't worth it for some reason. :cheers:

That asm 210 I don't own at all, hasn't been in the cards but is needed at some point lol agreed on that.

My Ezekiel was a 8,5 newsstand signed cgc by Campbell,  but the raw was under $30, which wasn't bad, but dag gum Campbell sig with a press cost $130 wah wah hahaha.

doh! I'm just glad to see it is still collected :shy:

I can’t seem to find a similar comic, with the direct market UPC box, posted anywhere.  Is this a Canadian Price Variant?

Hmm…now I see this is a “bartcode” issue?

lol I was just about to point out the "bart", I knew a friend who owned and sold one, and I don't know if it ever "took off?" but it was at least "something", and should sell regardless, but idk the premium either but would guess it would get one!
