Swamp Thing (question from a coinie, sorry)

[BodyBag]

Swamp Thing, in the 80's, Totlieben (I'm sure I spelled his name wrong). Are these worth anything?

Letsee, what time izzit?

 

Oh, OK, the first few of the run, 20-24 will fetch from $8-$20 in Mint. #37, first John Constantine, $15 in Mint. The draw is the writer, Alan Moore, who came on in #20 (but that issue not by Totleben). Steve Bissette and John Totleben (not sure I spelled that right either) preceeded Moore's arrival by a few issues, and those pre-Moore issues are currently almost worthless.

 

So, not worth a lot monetarily, but one of the great mainstream comics achievements of all time, IMHO.

 

Cheers,

Nice bike.....but the pictures too small for me to tell what it is........Hyabusa? (sp?)

[BodyBag]

Bugaboo,

It's a BMW K1100RS, which I don't own, I just like the picture and aspire to owning it. I have a Suzuki Bandit 1200, which is not a BMW, but is faster than anything they make!

Hey, just wondering, can certified comics be opened, so that you can look at the pages? If not, how do you know the grade isn't BS?

You have an inquiring mind and as such, I suggest that you abandon all interest in nonsensical coin collecting and immediate read ALL the comic threads...TWICE. Repent...this is the perfect day for ALL Coinees to repent their lost souls.

"Nice bike"

 

You said it, Bug. I just hope he can acheive escape velocity on it should he happen to ride by when Arcadia is using the deep recesses of TJenitals "Inner Sanctum", to tone and tarnish the traditional Easter Coins, if the suction of Arcadia's withdrawal starts to inexhorably suck both he and his bike in!!!

Out of my element. i want my mommy!

they are basically worth nothing, BUT they are probably the best mainstream/horror/superhero book of the past 40 years. Swamp Thing 24 is the best JLA story ever, and for a just spectacular read, pick up Swamp Thing Annual 2 and Swamp Thing 53.
