Published 1993-1996.* Complete series.** Singular issue/series not directly continued.*** Predator appearance. Some of the issues were photographed separately after the main sets, but they will be included all together when they are shipped. (These are issues I bought recently to add to complete series.) "Comics' Greatest World (abbreviated as CGW) was an imprint of Dark Horse Comics, launched in 1993 by "Team CGW" with the intention of giving Dark Horse its own superhero pantheon like DC Comics and Marvel Comics. Unlike the majority of Dark Horse's output at the time, all CGW characters and concepts were fully owned by Dark Horse Comics. The original idea was to make 16 issues (four arcs of four issues each) where every arc was set in a city with its own superheroes, antiheroes and villains, all set in a Shared Universe. Although every arc is independent, all of them are connected by "The Vortex", an interdimensional rift that provokes the creation of metahumans all over the USA. Each city has a distinct theme and tone to provide something for every kind of reader, with a controlling editor for each one to keep the vision and the continuity consistent between titles." I loved these books. It was a great idea for a superhero universe, with a lot of great heroes, and I followed it as long as I could (or as long as it went, which wasn't long). In particular Catalyst was a surprisingly great series (that ended too abruptly). It's a shame they didn't keep a lot of these going (or weren't able), besides X and Ghost. One of my hopes in comics is that these will get resurrected one day (maybe a rare benefit of the current nostalgia for things '90s). If you need better pictures, let me know what detail you want to see and I’ll take a better one. I will absolutely combine orders! Win more than one lot and I’ll put them together and it’s less to ship and less for you to pay. Once all your auctions are done and you’re done bidding (and if it doesn't offer this automatically) I'll send you an invoice that will have the revised shipping. (It may take me a couple days if I’m not working on eBay listings when they close, but you can also send me a message to say that you’re done bidding and ready for them to be shipped.) Buy more to save more! I don’t mind waiting for payment if you’re buying more than one lot. I’m open to whatever form of shipping you want, and I can adjust the price by sending you an invoice. (I’ll send them via Media Mail if you don’t say otherwise, and by default I will send all orders to the same address if they can be combined.) I don’t have a business. I’m on here to get rid of stuff I’ve had in storage for a while. It’s a lot of great stuff from my personal collection that I’ve loved over the years but it’s also a lot of stuff and it’s time. Usually I sell comics on here (a lot of from the late ‘80s to the early ‘00s). I'm just about finished with Dark Horse, Image, indies, Vertigo, mainstream DC, non-superhero Marvels, now it’s mainstream Marvels (next Avengers & Avengers-related, including Black Panther, then later Spider-Mans, Captain Americas, and tons of Daredevils) after that. I’m a reader so the runs I offer might be inconsistent by book, with single issues often replaced by a trade or collection, but it’s likely a full run to serve reading. I’ll consider best offers, especially if you want to buy more than one lot. If the formatting of the text in this box looks sloppy, it happened after I posted it. When I wrote this it all looked fine and consistent but eBay mangles it with HTML after. Hopefully you don't pay attention to these things (though thanks if you read this far), but I do and this is ghastly to me but I have too many of these to post to go over (and it shouldn't have changed in the first place). Let me know how you're liking the issues! Keep in touch!marlanharris dot com
