Cracking price for this Detective Comics #1000 (Forbidden Planet 40th Anniversary Bolland Variant Set) - Limited Edition : Only 1500 Produced

A meaty 96 pages each comic too.

Detective Comics #1000 Forbidden Planet 40th Anniversary Bolland Variant Set, contains the Colour Variant and a Black and White Variant only available within this set. Limited to 1,500.

As part of DC’s year-long global celebration of Batman’s 80th anniversary, DC is publishing a momentous 1,000th issue of DETECTIVE COMICS.

The series that introduced the world’s most popular Super Hero and the title from which the DC brand was born. This must-have collector’s item debuts March 27, 2019 and includes all-new stories plus a wraparound cover from the powerhouse art team of fan favourite artist Jim Lee, inker Scott Williams and colorist Alex Sinclair.

DETECTIVE COMICS #1000 is highlighted by an original story from the team of writer Peter J. Tomasi and artist Doug Mahnke that not only launches a new story arc but introduces a new version of the Arkham Knight to DC comics canon.

Tomasi is no stranger to this character, having written his video game origins in 2015’s BATMAN: ARKHAM KNIGHT, GENESIS miniseries.

DETECTIVE COMICS #1000 also features a two-page spread spotlighting the current state of the Batman universe by Jason Fabok, plus a treasure trove of original stories from a who’s who of comic writers and artists, all honouring the milestone anniversary of The World’s Greatest Detective, including:

Kevin Smith and Jim Lee
Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev
Warren Ellis and Becky Cloonan
Paul Dini and Dustin Nguyen
Denny O’Neil and Steve Epting (a sequel to O’Neil’s 1976 DETECTIVE COMICS story “There’s No Hope in Crime Alley”)

    I've always loved Brian Bollands work from the house of hammer magazine, 2000ad and cover of the drifters greatest hits album he did in the 70s and his dark knight stuff (edited)

    Yep, I was a bit miffed at the postage, but it is two meaty comics, bagged and boarded in a cardboard 'box' so guess it goes over the lower postage rate that they offer.

    Bolland's a great artist especially his JD/Anderson/Dark Judges stuff.

    His DC stuff isn't his best work IMO became to watered down

    Bolland Strips! worth a read to get some background take on the guy

    I was in that shop a few weeks ago and no sign of it - it's been out a while and they don't tend to keep older issues for long there.
