Published by IDW Comics in 2010, this is a new series based on the hit sci-fi TV series Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Angel. We bought these as they were published for the purpose of reselling them, and all of our copies are mint, unread issues (unless specified differently in the description), stored carefully for many years in a pet and smoke free environment. In fact, when you open the cover to one it is probably the first time it will have ever been opened. We classify them as near mint because even a comic straight from the printers can always have some VERY minor fault. The photo is for identification only and they are shipped bagged and boarded for their protection. Please check out our other items up for bid and our ebay store, including additional comics, magazines, and other Buffy, Angel and Spike merchandise.
