American Update: Batmania Max Meets Slab Happy – Catwoman #1 (2002) CGC Signature Series!
*DC: Together Again For The First Time – a Batmania Max/Slab Happy mash-up with the CGC Signature Series edition of 2002’s Catwoman #1! After Jim Balent jumped ship from Catwoman to launch the even more bloated and absurd Tarot, Selina’s series foundered and eventually was cancelled, with Ed Brubaker and Darwyn Cooke relaunching her with a much sleeker, noirish look in 2002. This first issue of Catwoman Vol 3 is CGC graded as 9.8 NM/M, and was signed by the late and much-lamented artist Darwyn Cooke on 29th November 2001. (We don’t need to tell you by now that comic-book release dates are ahead of time, do we?) This item would normally be more expensive, but previous impact damage (not while it was in our jurisdiction!) has cracked – but not opened – the case at the upper and lower corners, so this distinctive item is offered for £100. SORRY, THIS HAS NOW SOLD
