Got these during a midtown sale a few days ago. Wven though they were marked as Good to Very fine theyre actually higher grade than that and all ranged from $1.50-$2.12. I played the game way back in the day and its absolutely bonkers
Been looking for this book in NM or better for many many years.
This issue comes up often enough, but never in tippy top notch condition.
Held my breath upon receipt as the pictures looked good (that’s happened before though) and finally got one I can be proud to say is Near Mint. I’ve been looking for super high grade Treasuries for years and they just don’t come up often. This Wizard of Oz one for sure.
I focus on the “Original Story” Treasuries (Spidey/Superman, Muhammad Ali/Superman, the Olympics one with spidey and hulk, etc…). The other Treasuries that are reprints don’t really move me much; even in super high grade.
Everybody has that weird specific thing they have been looking for to add to the personal collection right?
Well, this is mine. This book is beyond a ghost. It’s almost downright unfindable.
This is the MyComyc 1-10 collected edition circa 1985. It re-binds issues 1-10 of the Spanish MyComyc magazine featuring the first appearances of the characters from the Droids and Ewoks 80s cartoons.
This magazine is so obscure that Lucasfilm themselves can’t actually verify that they ever licensed the publisher the rights to the Star Wars characters. Dark Horse wanted to publish the material in an omnibus and Lucasfilm denied the request. They couldn’t verify the license, so they didn’t want to legitimize the publication.
I call this a re-binding because it isn’t actually a reprint. They took the previously published issues and simply rebound them together inside of a front and back cover. The book contains the complete issues including the back cover ads.
I’ve been hunting this book since about 2015 and I finally found one. It’s the only one I’ve ever seen come up for sale.
Christmas present to myself. Love the games and finally decided to buy this issue. It even still had the coupon. You think EB games will still honor it lol
