Thank you for dropping by. You’ve found a nice lot of 22 Red 5 (one slipped in by Red Giant) Comic Books from 2016-2022. For some reason Red 5 has a knack for getting its titles optioned for major motion pictures (Rift, Afterburn, Riptide, Riptide Draken) and this lot has plenty of that source material. Once these films hit the mainstream, we can expect many of these already HTF back issues to soar in demand and value (there were low print runs to begin with).
