Item description from the seller

- c***c (52)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe book was shipped very quickly and arrived exceptionally well-packaged. It was essentially as described in the listing--no surprise there. I would highly recommend this seller for a very positive experience. This book (Vol. 4) represents one more in my quest to have a complete set of all 15. Still looking for Vols. 5 and 14 in as good a shape as your Vol 4. If you can help me there, shoot me an e-mail Larry-BOS. Thanks
- r***d (772)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseLove it, thank you. Great looking book for its age. As described, packed well, shipped promptly. Highly recommended seller. A+Bring on the Bad Guys: Origins of the Marvel Comics Villains, ,STAN LEE Good, (#156622682494)
- _***a (486)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseI've only rated this item 3/5, but this isn't a comment on Larry-BOS or his business. Book arrived in the promised timescale, was 'like new' as described, well-packaged and was cheaper than the only alternative I could find at the time. But the question was "tell us more about this item". Haven't read properly yet, but I can see that the artist has mucked about with the original design of the legendary C57-D spaceship. Why oh why oh why? And some of the crew appear to favour wearing shorts???Forbidden Planet The Saga of the Krell Graphic Novel adaptation of the film (#156256583895)
