The more you buy, the more you save!If you are an non-US buyer, combined shipping does not work automatically -- please contact me with the books you want and I can make the proper arrangements.
Please see \'Seller Notes\' for details on my collection. I have over 5,000 books from the 70s & 80s and am trying to figure out the best way to list them on . Creating listings by title with issues as a variation seems to be the most efficient, plus allows me to automatically combine shipping and to offer discounts for multiple issues purchased. However, I lose the the option for buyers to make an offer. If there are specific books you would like to make an offer on, send me a message. Please check my response to see what other buyers say about the condition of my books and be sure tocheck out my other listingsfor combined shipping discounts. Finally, while is configured to not offer returns, if you feel a book has been misrepresented, I will work with you on it.
Important note about shipping:I ship my comics in their sealed Mylar bag (no backing board) sandwiched between two 8.5\" x 11\" pieces of 1/8\" corrugated cardboard placed in a 12\" x 9\" manila envelope. This should be adequate to protect the comics 99% of the time when shipped first class. You will have the choice to select either first class or economy/media mail shipping. Be advised that economy shipping is just like it sounds -- economy/3rd class and mail isn\'t treated all that well. Most of the time my packaging should withstand the abuse that 3rd class mail sees, butI can\'t be held responsible for damage caused by the post office in delivering the package as described. Choose first class shipping for more reliable handling and if you don\'t like my packing method, please contact me prior to purchase/payment to workout a different arrangement.
Batman (DC 1940-2011)Since his debut in Detective Comics #27, Batman has become one of the best-known comic heroes of all time. Created by the legendary Bob Kane, Batman is one of the rare characters who have transcended comics to become cultural icons. Batman (a.k.a. Bruce Wayne) protects the citizens of Gotham City from a never-ending array of criminals. Over the years, his foes have included such famous villains as Joker, The Penguin, Catwoman, and countless others.
Where once he was a fairly straightforward super-hero (complete with Robin, the boy sidekick), Batman has been transformed over time into an increasingly complex character. Now he is the Dark Knight, an avenger of evil who also must face up to the darkness within his own soul.
