Very nice. This is the first time I've seen the Lawnmower Man portfolio.

Yeah it is much nicer that I was expecting and bigger too. It fits in nicely with my current art portfolio binge. It just came out on 8/5/14 but took 3 weeks for my local comic store to get them here. I think it is cool that SK did the story adaptation himself too.

Here is a nice article about it

Really close now to having all the hardbacks, then on to softbacks and upgrades on a few of the hardbacks.

I knew you would like it. A nice surprise was that it had a Grant order form inside, kinda cool.

If you're like me it's the early editions that were last to acquire........so expensive!!
I had paid anywhere from $1.00 to $1000.00 for my first/firsts. I bought a lot junk, paid too much but now feel I have a handle on what to look for. Websites like 'The Collector' were a big help (thanks to Tomas).

I still can't drive past a used bookstore, Sally Ann or Thrift Store and I check websites pretty much daily.
It was just this spring I got the last SK first trade copy I was missing (The Shining).
What are you missing?
