Galen130 Posted May 14, 2022 Author Share Posted May 14, 2022 1st print, softcover of Batman: Arkham Asylum-A Serious House on Serious Earth. This graphic novel is the Warner Books edition, and it won the 1990 Harvey Award for Excellence in Production. It also won the Squiddy Award for Favorite Graphic Novel (1989). I believe this comic to be in Very Fine/Near Mint condition, or better. This comic shows no wear along the spine and there are no staples to worry about. There is noticeable blunting of the bottom spine corner, especially on the back cover…which shows very mild drop damage that doesn’t break the ink. This book was read, but it was handled very carefully…which is evident by the lack of spine binding ink breakage. There are no cracks/bends along the spine from being read. $20 SHIPPED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galen130 Posted May 16, 2022 Author Share Posted May 16, 2022 Direct edition copy of Batman: Death of Innocents #1.

The first few pages of the comic show what looks to be very light moisture rippling/wrinkling near the bottom edges, but this isn’t visible on the front cover. There isn’t any sign of moisture damage, so this rippling/wrinkling could be a production defect. I’m not 100% on that. $6, PLUS SHIPPING Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galen130 Posted May 18, 2022 Author Share Posted May 18, 2022 (edited) 1st print copy of Batman/Judge Dredd: Judgement on Gotham [nn]. This one-shot comic won the UK Comic Art Award for Best Original Graphic Novel/One-shot in 1992. I believe this comic to be in Very Fine plus condition, or better. This comic shows hardly any wear on the spine and there are no staples to worry about. There is light blunting of the spine corners, but there aren’t any spine stress creases/ticks to speak of. The blunted bottom spine corner shows some very light edge wear nearby, on both covers. The back cover shows residual tape residue near the top edge, which isn’t sticky and can't be felt. I don’t know if this will clean off. Another possibility is that when the tape was removed, it took some of the paper gloss with it. I wasn't quite sure how to estimate a grade for this comic because of the 'tape' defect on the back. It might grade lower...I don't know for sure. $7, PLUS SHIPPING Edited May 18, 2022 by Galen130 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
