  Thank you for your winning bids, be sure to check out my other collectible listings: (Comics and Comix) which include a couple of rare Signed and Numbered Hardbound editions; you can find them at the top of this listing: "See Other Items" in Seller Information section.

     I have completed listing a small box of Vintage Adult "Underground" Comix from the late 60's and early 70's, and have a small number still available, featuring memorable characters like Wonder Wart Hog, The Freak Brothers, Mr. Natural, Harold Hedd and Mr.Toad.  Awesome covers by Richard Corbin and Robert Crumb (among others), and great titles from Rip off Press, Mothers Oats Comix and of course, Zap Comics (standards for the "underground" Comix market before writers and artists owned "Independent" comic book companies).

  There are many other additional comix titles that might strike your fancy, they are unique collectables, so look for those issues too.

  I have listed several issues of different Dave Stevens material worth checking out that I personally acquired from the man himself at the 1986 Portland, Oregon Comic-Con.

  A few of these titles are autographed (in both Raw and Graded conditions).

  These autographed books are very limited and rare. True legacy issues for your collection and definitely worth checking out.

  My number one priority is your satisfaction from purchase to delivery.  

  Your feedback is welcome for any aspect of this listing.
