Comic Book New Releases April 24
April Update: We are now handling new release comics a bit differently. Most new release comics will be offered as "New" rather than assigned indivdual grades. A comic that we offer listed as "New" without a grade could fall anywhere between Very Fine and Near Mint unless otherwise specified in the listing. Many incentive variants and higher value new releases will continue to be assigned grades.
Preview comics expected to arrive May 8
