Batman: A Death in the Family, 6th print TPB.  This book reprints the entire ‘Death in the Family’ comic story line, which features the death of Robin (Jason Todd).

VF-, or better; off-white pages.  The top spine corner shows a small tear in the paper.  Both covers show an indentation crease that barely breaks the ink.  These look almost like production creases.

$6

[Galen130]

Batman: A Lonely Place of Dying, 2nd print TPB (direct). This book reprints the entire ‘A Lonely Place of Dying’ comic story line, which won Best Story-1989 CBG Fan Awards.

VF, or better; off-white to white pages. The bottom right corner of the entire book shows a light bend that doesn’t appear to break the ink.  It does, however, lightly 'ripple' the front cover, at the bottom edge of that corner.

$8

[Galen130]

Batman: Bloodstorm [nn], 1st print hardcover.  This is a one-shot Elseworlds story featuring Catwoman and Joker appearances.

VF, or better.  The top right corner of the book shows mild bend/drop damage to the dust jacket and the book.  There is very light ink breakage to the dust jacket corner because of this, but not to the book corner. Other corners may show very minor bends due to long term storage.

The book barely fit on my scanner, so if additional photos are needed, just PM me.

$25 (or best offer)

Batman: Bride of the Demon, 1st print hardcover.  Batman tries to stop Ra's al Ghul from replenishing the earth's ozone layer and laying waste to civilization in the process.

VF/NM, or better.  This book shows a few spots of very light rubs to the gloss on the spine (dust jacket). Near the bottom page corner of each cover (not the dust jacket), there looks to be a couple of very mild indentations ‘upward’ from the bottom. I hesitate to call this drop damage because there’s no wear or creasing at those spots.

Due to the large size of this book, quality scans weren't possible. If more photos are needed, please PM me.

$25 (or best offer)

Batman/Deadman: Death and Glory, 1st print hardcover.  Along with Deadman, the story also features an appearance by Joker.

NM-, or better.  This book was read, but it was handled very carefully…which is evident by the lack of spine binding ink breakage.  A few corners of the dust jacket have extremely mild blunting or indentations that don't break ink.

$30 (or best offer)

Batman: Digital Justice, 1st print hardcover.  This graphic novel is all computer generated, and the dustjacket includes front and rear interior flaps containing text information on the graphic novel.  The front and back cover of the book (sans dustjacket) features a random pattern of computer circuits.  Jim Gordon, grandson of James Gordon, makes an appearance.

VF+, or better.  The dustjacket has mild blunting/bending near the top spine corner, as well as blunting of the top edges (dustjacket).  This is from long term storage in a bookcase.  The edge bend on the back does crease the paper, but it’s hard to tell for sure if there’s ink breakage.  You may notice in one of the photos that there seems to be a slight outward curve to the hard covers.  I’m not sure how this happened, but the curves did not create any structural issues.

Proper scans weren't possible because of the size, so photos were taken.

$25 (or best offer)

Batman: Night Cries, 1st print hardcover.  This graphic novel won the 1993 Harvey Award-Special Award for Excellence in Production, as well as the UK Comic Art Award for Best Original Graphic Novel/One-shot.  Some things frighten even the Batman.

VF/NM, or better.  Except for very light blunting/impacting on the spine corners (book), and some light cosmetic scratches, scuffs, and edge curving of the dust jacket, this book is in great shape.

Quality scans weren't possible.

$30 (or best offer)

[Galen130]

Batman: Son of the Demon, 4th print softcover.  This square-bound graphic novel features Batman and Talia al Ghul having…a child together???

VF/NM, or better.  There's very light blunting to the spine corners, and a few very mild edge bends to the cover(s).

I opted for photos instead of scans.

$10

[Galen130]

Batman 3-D, 1st print softcover.  This square-bound graphic novel features Batman and all the usual suspects in classic 50’s style 3-D animation.  The original glasses and cutout are included.

I'm not sure how to grade this one because the original 3-D glasses and the cutout they came out of were removed at the perforation. The book was read, but great care was taken to ensure no cracks or bends occurred along the spine.  If the glasses weren't removed, or the cut-out, I would have given the book a NM estimate.

$10

[Galen130]

Cadillacs and Dinosaurs: Time in Overdrive, Volume 3 [nn].  This is a 1st print, collected edition book that reprints Xenozoic Tales #9 to #12.

VF, or better.  The edges of the spine, front and back, show some light ink breakage/wear from being read.  The back has a couple of scuffs to the glossy surface that don’t break the ink.  Both covers show light edge dings either on the top or bottom.

Sorry about the scans...this book barely fit the scanner.  I can provide further pics if requested.
