PGM Diablo: Tales of Sanctuary Variant (and maybe help with some information, too!)

This book is not getting slabbed. It's a trainwreck. I'm posting it here in part to see it get the PGM savaging it deserves. But also because this forum is pretty widely frequented, and I could use some information about this book. The normal cover of this Dark Horse one-shot was released in 2001, and is nothing that weird (although kind of hard to find in high grades). This puppy... well, it has no cover price and lacks the ISBN and barcode of the normal issue. So I assume it was an advertising freebie or con swag, but I can find zilch info on where it actually came from. I'm hoping that someone dropping in to make fun of its condition can fill me in on the history. Oh, and if someone wants to offer me a 9.0+ copy, well, my PMs are right there... :cheers:

As for this book, if you think it looks like a defect, it's isn't my poor photography skills; it's a defect! The only thing I can say in it's defense is the long arc at front cover top that looks like a tear or really ugly crease is actually.... just a really ugly color-breaking surface scrape through the cover gloss. I guess that's better. Assume the front and back cover fields also have more non-breaking dents than I was able to show here. Because they do.

A great book for real Diablo fans. Now I don't have comic books, because some time ago I moved to another city and left all the cool stuff to my younger brother. But I took one cute art book by a famous artist who draws from Diablo and other gaming fandoms. I think you've heard about this fan artbook (Chinese artist). By the way, I haven't played Diablo 2 for a long time. I recently downloaded Metal Hellsinger. And the game reminded me of Diablo's vibes. So I decided to go back to Diablo when I had time. I've already forgotten many runic words. So I hope I'll find what I need in the yesgamers articles, as I did before.

Thanks for sharing your experience with the PGM Diablo: Tales of Sanctuary Variant. It sounds like you've encountered quite the enigma! While I can't offer much insight into its origins, I'm intrigued by your quest to unravel its history. It's fascinating how certain editions can hold such mystery. If anyone can shed light on its background, it's the knowledgeable community here.
And if you're still on the hunt for that elusive 9.0+ copy, you might want to explore the services offered by the Best Multi-Boosting Project at Boosteria. Who knows? They might just have the expertise to assist you in your quest.
