Predator vs Magnus Robot Fighter tpb?

Post by riftt »

Did the trade paperback of Predator vs Magnus have an introduction or afterword? If so would anyone be able to send me a hi-res scan of it? Can't believe this trade is still so expensive.

not that exspensive. A lot go unsold. I passed on one recently for £20.
Do you want me to see if still available?
I wish their was a Spinal Tap comic, and I had a copy CGC graded at 11.

No, just a picture gallery (mainly with the card images).

Yeh, sorry about that. I think I drove up the price. Had an idea and bought several, even got invaluable help from people here, but put it on hold. But as burnout guy says, they can be found. Your post is a good reminder to get going again. One day I will have more to say.

In that case if anyone could send me a scan of the tpb cover (or if that cover art is available somewhere online let me know!) as well as the introduction to the Steel Nation tpb I'd appreciate it.

I can snap a photo, but may take a day.
I think I have one in English. Saw a foreign edition recently and know where that is.
Hopefully English editions next to or near it. (otherwise in main collection in storage).

Will do today, or this afternoon. Steel nation I have, but don't have access to at the moment.

Thanks guys I hadn't realized this TPB existed. Im sure it's no rare information just news to me. What issues does it include? Just Mag v Pred #1 & #2? As published as original comics? That seems like it would make a thin TPB.
I've been looking everywhere for the ultra-rare Turok vs Blister issue. Anybody able to help me out?

Yep, it's thin, just those two issues... and it was released in 1994 when there were still plenty of copies of Predator vs Magnus #1 and #2 in the dollar bins.
Not many retailers needed to order a 1994 two-issue graphic novel to try to sell for $7.95 when they couldn't get rid of both original 1992 comics for $2 total.

wow.. I certainly would not mind acquiring one of these unread copies out there if anyone is willing to help me with that. Happy to pay for your time and effort of course.

Thanks in advance.

So the one you are looking at is in Spanish? but you have others in storage? I would like to buy one of the regular ones you have (non-Spanish) if you are in the market to sell; otherwise, thank you very much for looking into it. :)
