Description: Sure, it's great that you can get your hands on sketches and/or signatures from Eric Powell, Francesco Francavilla, Matt Hawkins, and Dean Haspiel in this single lot. But that's not the best part. Listen, Sparky, here's the deal: I've literally never seen this American Vampire hardcover for sale with a Berni Wrightson signature. Never. Not anywhere. And not to put too fine a point on it, but they're not exactly making more of these. So this is probably your one and only opportunity to snag one of these bad boys. The volumes are in various conditions, but the only one that I'd consider in any way damaged might be the Goon trade, and that one has an extra sketch by Eric Powell, so let's call that a wash.

I’ve got a kid now, and that means more expenses and less room forfun collectibles, which is all terribly sad. Except for the having a kid part.But my pain is your gain (is that anything?) because I’m pricing everything tosell! Plus I will include in every shipment an extra thing thatyou will not want! What a treat! The Alex Guarantee is that if you do want thedumb, free thing I include in your package, you can return it to me for yourmoney back. (But just what you spent on that dumb, free thing. Which wasnothing. Please don’t send me back any dumb, free things. I’m trying to clearout room, remember?) --FAQs-- Shipping Will I combine shipping on multiple items? Probably! Do I shipinternationally? I don’t know! I haven’t done much of that, but if you’rewilling to cover the extra shipping cost, I don’t see why not. In either case,make sure you click “Add to cart” and then in your cart click “Request total.” Authenticity Any signatures, personalizations, and remarques werepersonally acquired from the creators by me (unless otherwise noted), and I’llbe happy to provide a certificate of authenticity to that effect upon request. Condition All gradings noted for my comics, books, and othercollectibles are my own (unless otherwise noted), but good news! I worked at acomic shop for nearly ten years, and I’ve been seriously collecting for morethan twenty years. So I may not be a CGC employee, but I am more experiencedgrading than most. I've also stored them away from sunlight, smoke, extremetemperatures and other stuff that likes to eat paper and plastic alive. I also make every effort to preserve the condition of whatyou’re buying while shipping. All single issues will come bagged and boarded,as will most standard-sized trades and hardcovers. All shipments will includeappropriate padding and reinforcement to keep the stressed-out mail carrierfrom damaging it when they toss it onto your doorstep in order to meet theirtiming requirement and make rent this month. If you want more pictures of any item, just let me know. Iget it!
