Item Description
Condition: VG-FFREEBIE FUN PACKS with EVERY packageDoctor Tomorrow (Acclaim 1997) #1-6, 8-12
From Comicbase:
"Bart Simms has what is either the ultimate super-power, or the most worthless one. As Dr. Tomorrow, he’s a man from the future, able to employ modern technology, and a knowledge of upcoming events to alter the course of world history.
Shortly after appearing on the scene, he became a hero in the fight against the Axis forces. By helping stop the Nazis, he may have saved untold lives. At the same time, he must face two horrifying possibilities. The first is that some slight action he undertakes could alter the future in unforeseen—and possibly catastrophic ways. Perhaps the person he saves goes on to become the world’s greatest killer…or perhaps his actions could even prevent his future self from coming into being. But the second possibility may be even worse. What if the future is fixed, and nothing he—or anyone else—does can change anything?"
The Warehouse of Wonders presents a lot of Doctor Tomorrow issues from Acclaim's attempt at establishing themselves as a media juggernaut for the young male demographic. Written by Bob Layton and drawn by a variety of artist from Don Perlin to Alex Maleev to Jim Hall to Andrew Wildman, read these time spanning adventures! Wonder how much he screwed up with his meddling!
All issues VG-F condition.
End Of Description
Read this legend for an understanding for how our grading system works:
M = Mint
a
perfect, unread comic. White pages, sharp corners, perfectly aligned
cover, tight staples, sharp square corners, no creases, marks, fading of
any kind - no flaw whatsoever. We have never actually graded a book as
Mint. to Quote Phil Seuling: "Mint is a flavor of chewing gum."
Nm = Near Mint
This
is what most comics look like when purchased new, presuming no
harassment on the racks. Tight staples, glossy cover, sharp corners, no
marks, white pages. Any flaws are HINTS of a flaw. Maybe look very
closely and you the perfectionist will see a miniscule mis-alignment of
the cover with the pages, or the hint of the rounding of a corner. Run
your fingers down the spine and you may feel a crease which isn't
visible to the eye. Those are the kind of things which mean that nearly
all "as new" comics are graded as Near Mint rather than Mint. You will
notice that in our 1000s of listings, we don't use this grade either.
VF-NM is usually our top grade.
VF = Very Fine
Excellent
condition. Sharp, bright and clean. May have minor spine wear or a
small corner crease, or slight surface wear. Often, at first glance a
Very Fine comic will appear Near Mint, although closer inspection will
reveal trace ( but distinct) imperfections. This is typically the best
grade seen for Silver Age comics.
F = Fine
a
nice book, still attractive to look at. An optimistic first glance
might reasonably hope for a VF or even a VF-NM. Staples still firm,
there is at least some gloss, good corners, but closer look reveals yet
more imperfections.
Vg = Very Good
a
solid book. Immediately visible but not dramatic flaws - conversely no
dramatic virtues either. Just clean somewhat worn and solid. Maybe some
creases but no significant tears. Staples still solid. Book still
solid, but clearly worn.
G = Good
As
VG, but with flaws more pronounced. Creases are a little bigger, maybe a
larger tear, staples still well attached, but may have stress tears
around them. There may be small chips out of the cover. The wear is
everywhere but the book is still sound.
FR = Fair
A
Fair comic is well worn with large flaws, but the book and cover are
still, possibly a piece or two missing from the cover, a staple may be
loose. OK for a reader, a cheap placeholder for a collector.
Pr = Poor
Any
graded book should be complete. A book in POOR has its cover and all
its pages. Things may be loose or waiting to get lost, there may be a
piece missing here or there, but the book is there. Still readable. We
do not give incomplete books a grade.
Note
that when a grade appears as (VG-F) or something similar, it means the
book was somewhere in-between the two selected grades. And when a
listing appears as (G+), it means that the book was slightly better
than the grade described, or slightly less in the case of (G-).
