Batman Killing Joke Deluxe Edition Hardcover HC/Graphic Novel DC Comics Joker

Description: For sale today is the essential, controversial, and classic DC Comics hardcover (hc) graphic novel Batman: The Killing Joker, by Alan Moore and Brian Bolland, published in 2008. It is the deluxe edition, and the seventeenth (that's ridiculous, 17 times in print?!?) printing. The classic Batman tale by Alan Moore and Brian Bolland returns in an all-new special edition! This edition - celebrating the 20th anniversary of the landmark work - features all-new coloring by Bolland, and includes the story 'An Innocent Guy,' previously featured in BATMAN: BLACK AND WHITE! I am not a comics grader, but I try to be as thorough as possible when assessing books for any flaws. I don't believe in using a number grade system - to me they are mostly utilized as a method to be ambiguous about exact condition and/or individual imperfections - but I do attempt to describe anything other than minor cover shelf-scuffing/scratching in detail. If a certain flaw discussed below does not mention that it affects inside pages, then it does not. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This copy is in good overall condition, with a solid spine, a very good hardcover (photo#11) and excellent inside pages (photo#12 example). Other than a few jacket creases, it has some lighter signs of wear, all of which affect its externals. **Photo#4: -Upper spine corner: Jacket has light scuffing.-Lower spine corner: Jacket has some indents/compression, also shows on the hardcover below at the spine, and around it on the front cover as a ~3/4" indent.**Photo#5: -Front cover top edge: Some scuffing around its middle.-Outer corner: Small scuff, shows lightly on hardcover below. **Photo#6:-Front cover bottom edge: Light scuffing/flaring mostly around jacket's middle, with a ~1" scuff towards the outer corner. Horizontal ~2" jacket crease/ ~3"depression nearby edge's middle (photo#9 w/illumination).-Outer corner: ~1" crease/indent around jacket corner, shows as a small/light indent on hardcover below. Tiny tear at extreme jacket corner. **Photo#7: -Back cover top edge: 2 small scuffs towards spine corner, 1 more near jacket's middle, otherwise light if any shelf-wear.-Outer corner: Minimal wear. **Photo#8:-Back cover bottom edge: Light ~1.5" curved jacket crease nearby edge's middle that ends in two small scuffs on the edge (photo#10 w/illumination). 1 more small scuff nearby spine corner. -Outer corner: Nearby curved ~1.5" jacket crease (also in photo#10). Corner itself has a tiny scuff/indent. **Additionally: Front jacket cover possesses a tiny indent/scratch near its lower half, a nearby small one. Both covers have a column of very light shelf-scuffing nearby their spine edges. Inside jacket flaps have light flaring when opened. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I both buy to read as well as sell TPBs on here, so I understand how aggravating it is to receive a comic damaged in transit. I always pack books firmly between pieces of cardboard (among other materials/layers) via Gemini Comic mailers or bubble mailers depending on size; usually utilizing boxes for larger lots. If you have any questions or would like any additional photos, feel free to let me know. I'm always happy to combine shipping costs - either message me before completing purchase for a pre-payment price adjustment, or alternatively I can provide a refund afterwards. Thanks, and have an amazing day!
