AARDVARK/VANAHEIMPlenty of issues of Cerebus going back
to around #30, plus Cerebus bi-weekly (reprints) and issues of Normalman
and other AV oddities.
ACG
A solid smattering
of Forbidden Worlds, Adventures into the Unknown, Magicman, plus a lot of early Herbies and more than a few
other titles. Sadly, if you're looking for Commander Battle and his Atomic Sub,
ferget it!
ANTARCTIC
PRESS Here is a company who's file has been enhanced by recent
purchases. Various issues of Warrior Nun, Shotgun Mary and earlier titles
such as Iczer Zone and Gold Digger are now in depth. Check COMICO and
ETERNITY for earlier series of Robotech.
ATLAS/SEABOARD
We have a very deep file for this 70's
upstart. Near complete runs (short as they were) of almost everything
except the very hard to find magazine titles. Great issues by Ditko, Colon, Chaykin,
Buckler, Hama and others!
CALIBER
The output of this company has been wide, but fairly
obscure. We have a large group of Caliber books which
are tough to find, including titles such as Negative Burn, early issues of
Dead World, Saint Germaine and many other obscurities and
oddities.
CHAOS
In
addition to the typical Evil Ernie and Lady Death selections, we still have titles such as
Detonator and Lynch Mob. Ask us.
CHARLTON
This Summer (2010) we received a very nice collection of Ditko Charltons; Tales of the Mysterious Traveller, Gorgo, Mysteries of the Unexplored World, and many others. These books are currently off-site, so let us know if you have any specific requests. Our selection of selection of other (non-Ditko) Charlton books is excellent, featuring plenty of titles such as
Ghostly Haunts, Fightin' Army/Navy, Doomsday+1, Timmy the Timid Ghost, and many
more.
CLASSICS
ILLUSTRATED
A nice selection of many issues of the original Gilberton run are available, including a number of first printings and rare issues, as well as Classics Illustrated Jr., and that wonderful series The World Around Us, featuring the art of Reed Crandall, Jack Kirby, George Evans and others!
CONTINUITY
If you're interested in the work of Neal Adams clones (and the occasional job by Neal himself), we have a good selection of both the early (Skate Man, Echo of Futurepast) and late (Cyberrad, Megalith) period Continuity titles.
CRUSADE
Shi, and the other spin-offs are still kicking around in our permanent file.
DARK
HORSEWe
have an excellent back stock on many Dark Horse titles. From oddities like
Propeller Man and Trekker to Star Wars and Ghost, our file covers a lot of
ground. Recent aquisitions have made this file one of our
best.
DC
Certainly one of our most comprehensive holdings, the DC
file is very deep on most titles back to the mid to late 60's. It has also
certainly been helped by recent arrivals (summer, 2010), especially: high grade Bronze age Superman, Detective, Phantom Stranger, House of Mystery,
and mid-grade copies of many late 50's / early 60's books including Batman,
Mystery in Space (as early as #8), Strange Adventures and manyothers. Remember, when we say
comprehensive, we're not kidding. If you're looking for strange and
obscure titles such as Swing with Scooter, Outcasts, Nathanial Dusk, or
Bomba, the Jungle Boy, we have them.
DELL
Yow, Dell sure put out a lot of comics! We can't claim to
have a comprehensive selection, (who can?) but recent buys (summer, 2010) have included
a fantastic selection of Four Colors, especially TV and movie photo covers. In addition there are at least 2 full boxes of vintage Dells of all types.
EC
While we don't usually keep them on hand in the store, we do
have a fair selection of original EC's, primarily War, Sci-Fi, and Crime
titles. (The horror books are increasingly difficult to keep available.)
We also recently aquired (summer, 2010) some mid-grade early issues of Mad (starting with #2) and Panic.We do have, of course, a large group of the various reprints from Gemstone
and Gladstone as well.
ECLIPSE
This is another company we are fairly deep on. I know you
Alan Moore / Neil Gaimen fans out there will be looking for issues of Miracleman. We
currently have a great selection of almost everything from 1-16, but (like everyone) not much beyond that. Also: runs of Scout, Airboy, DNAgents, Twisted Tales, Captain Victory,
plus deep catalogue titles like Axel Pressbutton, Mad Dogs, and Somerset Holmes.
ETERNITYOf course we have issues of The Trouble with Girls! What
store would be complete without them, or many other Eternity mainstays
such as Lensman, Robotech, or War of the Worlds? We have runs of these
books and many others.
FANTAGRAPHICSThis is a pretty thin file, but we
often acquire new issues. Please let us know what you're looking
for.
FIRST
COMICSWe
have an excellent selection of titles from First. Good runs of American
Flagg, Warp, Grimjack, Starslayer and many others. Terrific books by Tim
Truman, Angel Medina, Jim Starlin, Howard Chaykin and many others
abound.
GOLD
KEYOur
file on Gold Key has grown dramatically over recent years, and now
includes many early and premiere issues of titles such as George of the
Jungle, The Jetsons, Hanna Barbera Super TV Heroes, Bullwinkle, Astro Boy,
and so on. There are also plenty of other solid runs of Boris Karloff (and
Karloffs' Thriller), Tarzan, Magnus, Star Trek, Twilight Zone and so
on.
HARRIS
Many issues of Harris' Vampirella are available, as well as
some of their other short lived titles such as Q-Unit. See the Warren
listing for original (magazine)issues of Vampirella.
HARVEY
We have a nice selection of many Harvey titles, including
a good group of recently acquired mid to low-grade 50's horror titles! (With super fantastic work by Lee Elias, Bob Powell and many others!) Wendy, Stumbo, Bunny, Richie
Rich, and many others are available, including quite a few 25 cent
Giants.
IMAGEOur Image file is quite heavy (all that enamel coated stock,
don't you know). If you're looking for issues of Wildcats, Spawn,
Youngblood and the like, we can help! In fact, with the recent aquisition
of thosands of Image books, you'd be hard pressed to stump
us.
INNOVATION
Innovation titles are reasonably hard to find, and some
become more collectable each year. The movie and TV properties continue to
generate interest, and we have many of them, including issues of Forbidden
Planet, Lost in Space, and Freddy's Nightmares. We also have much of the
superhero part of the line, such as Justice Machine and Cobalt
Blue.
KITCHEN
SINK
We have a good selection of the main Kitchen Sink, including The Spirit, Dearth Rattle and Kings In Disguise, and many others.
MALIBUThose of you who are interested in Malibu's superhero line
will find that we can help you. We have a terrific selection of their
early books, relaunches, and Marvel merger issues.
MARVEL
With DC, Marvel is the Big Daddy (with apologies to
Tennessee Williams) of the Atlas file. We have a very comprehensive Marvel
selection from the early 60's through today. Looking for Millie the Model?
Omega the Unknown? Captain Savage and his Leatherneck Raiders? We have
'em, as well as solid runs of most major titles: Amazing Spider-Man back
to #6, Fantastic Four back to #2, Uncanny X-Men back to #2, Avengers back
to #8, and on and on. Recent purchases include early runs of
Suspense, Spidey, FF, Thor, Hulk, Captain America, Marvel Tales, Marvel
Superheroes, high grade copies of many Bronze and late Bronze titles, plus nearly 2 full runs of high grade Conans. In
addition we have snagged dozens of high grade copies of early 70's Marvel mags such
as Tales of the Zombie, Monsters Unleashed, Dracula Lives and
others.
MILLENIUM
Short lived, but they had a few titles of note, including
Doc Savage. We do have a good number of their books in our file.
NOW
COMICS
Who
can forget the publisher of Green Hornet, Twilight Zone, The Terminator,
Speed Racer, and Bats, Cats, and Cadillacs? We sure can't, because our
file is full of runs of each of these titles, plus just about everything
else which Now published over the years. The most recent material (from
'92-'93) is the toughest to find, but our overstock file has much of this material.
ONI
PRESS
Not as comprehensive as other publishers, but there is a very solid group of these books kicking around the file.
QUALITY/FLEETWAYLots and lots of the judicial titles
(Judge Dredd, Judge Anderson, Judge Death), plus solid runs of many of
their other titles, including Sam Slade, Slaine, and more.
RIP OFF
PRESS"Mainline" books like Freak Brothers, Fat Freddies Cat, and
Rip Off Comics are in pretty good supply, while other titles are spotty.
Check with us for other undergrounds as well.
SIRIUS Other than Dawn, does anyone care? All you Animal Mystic fans can take care of your cravings here.
TEKNO COMICS (Big
Entertainment)We have most of the comics published by this short lived
giant. Books by Neil Gaiman, Leonard Nimoy, Gene Roddenberry have fueled a
niche market for these books.
TOPPS
Most of the Topps books are in good supply with the notable
exception of Xena. Only a handful remain. X-Files, Kirbyverse, Zorro and
others, all available.
VALIANT/ACCLAIM
Oh, yeah, we have runs and runs of
these books. They seem to have had a minor revival in recent years, but there
was a lot of great work by Bob Layton, Barry Smith, Steve Ditko, Dave
Lapham, Bart Sears, Joe Quesada, and others.
VIZ
Our file is limited to the early years of their comic book run. Very little beyond 2000.
WARREN
We have a lot of Warrens, but not necessarily in store. If you're looking for middle to high grade copies of Creepy, Eerie and Vampi from
the late 60's to early 70's, we should be able to find something for you.
OTHER
PUBLISHERS
Remember, just because it's not on this list doesn't mean we
don't have it! We have hundreds of titles by dozens of other publishers in
addition to the ones listed above, including many books from the 40's and
50's that are kept off site. These include (but are not limited to) publications
