ALF #1 COMIC BOOK MARVEL ALIEN LIFE FORM VINTAGE 1988!!


ALF #1 Comic Book.

Alf is an alien from the planet Melmac. While traveling through space, his craft developed problems and he crashed down on Earth, eventually winding up in the Tanner Family’s garage. Young Brian Tanner immediately took a liking to Alf and introduced him to his family: sister Lynn, baby Eric, and parents Kate and Willie. All of them eventually got used to having a wisecracking alien who looked a bit like an ugly teddy bear around the house. All of them, that is, except Lucky, the family cat. Cats, it seems, were something of a delicacy on Melmac, and Alf was continually chasing after her with dinner in mind.

A goofy, but remarkably popular television show, Alf also enjoyed a respectable run as a comic book.

G.I. JOE VS TRANSFORMERS COMIC BOOK.

features two successful toy lines who have also proven surprisingly popular as comic books.

The G.I. Joes, stars of their series G.I. Joe, A Real American Hero, have been stationed at Fort Lewis, Seattle, Washington at the site of the world’s first mobile solar/nuclear power station. As expected, trouble shows up in the form of Torch and his gang of gun-slinging bikers who bust in and nearly take a congressman hostage. The Joes stop the attack, but others had plans on the station as well. The good Transformers—the Autobots—decided to stand guard in case the Decepticons (the evil Transformers) decided to hijack the station. Unfortunately, even as the Autobots discovered the Decepticons’ presence on the base, the Joes discovered the Autobots. Having never met before, they assumed the Autobots were the enemy, and attacked them. But even as they did battle, the Decepticons appeared to make off with the station!

TRANSFORMERS #1 COMIC BOOK. HEADMASTERS

The ORIGINAL TRANSFORMERS Comic Book that was published by Marvel Comics in the eighties! 1987

The peaceful planet Nebulos, seemed to be an ideal haven for Fortress Maximus and his fellow Autobots as they sought refuge from the constant war that raged on their homeworld, Cybertron. But they did not count on the natural suspicion and xenophobia that most people feel for the unknown and unfamiliar, especially if that suspicion can be utilized by unscrupulous officials for their own ends. Lord Zarak is just such an official.

The Decepticons of Cybertron are not content to simply allow the Autobots to emigrate. And that attitude is just what Lord Zarak expects to use when he contacts Cybertron with information of the Autobots location. That may be a tact that Zarak will regret unless selected citizens of Nebulos, surgically altered to become The Headmasters, prevail.

MACROSS #1 Comic Book. ROBOTECH

COLLECTORS ITEM FIRST ISSUE!

Highly Recommended! Published by Comico in 1985. FULL COLOR!

This item was never sold in any mass market retail outlets and could only be purchased from comic book specialty stores.

This first release from Comico used character names such as "Rick Yamata" from the English language version of Macross before the completion of the 85-episode Robotech series in 1985. One of the hardest issues to find!

When an alien spaceship crashed on Macross Island, it had a profound effect upon humanity. Suddenly shocked into realizing that they were not alone in the universe, the various races of man agreed to cease their fighting, and band together instead. They built upon the technology found in the wrecked spaceship, calling it “Robotech.” Using the products of that technology, they formed the Robotech Defenders, an Earth defense force.

Many years later, Robotech would face its greatest challenge, when it encounters the Zentraedi, a warlike alien race. Hopelessly outnumbered by the Zentraedi warships, the Robotech warriors must somehow beat the odds if Earth is to survive.

RARE and OUT OF PRINT.

HARD TO FIND COLLECTORS ITEM FOR FANS OF WOLVERINE.

This story takes place not long after Kitty Pryde joined the X-Men (when she was still called “Ariel”). The tale began when Kitty learned that her father, a prominent Illinois banker, was being blackmailed by the Yakuza (Japanese mob). They threatened to reveal that he had tampered with his bank’s books unless he went with them to Japan to help them in their money-laundering operations. Kitty overheard the conversation and resolved to follow her father to Japan and rescue him. Quickly discovering that she was way over her head, Kitty called on fellow X-Man Wolverine, who quickly traveled to Japan to aid her.

In this action-packed series, the two struggle together to survive the Yakuza and save Kitty’s father. Along the way, they encounter both Yukio, a dangerous ronin with a heart of gold, and Lady Mariko, Wolverine’s great love, and the incidental head of a powerful crime family.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

TRANSFORMERS #2 COMIC BOOK VINTAGE MARVEL 1984 OPTIMUS!


TRANSFORMERS VINTAGE #2 COMIC BOOK.

The ORIGINAL TRANSFORMERS Comic Book that was published by Marvel Comics in the eighties!

On a faraway world in the Alpha Centauri system, there existed a world known as Cybertron. There, through a strange process of carbon-bonding, a race of mechanical beings called Autobots evolved, eventually transforming their world into a paradise.

But one group, the Decepticons, were not content with their peaceful life, and launched a deadly war for control of Cybertron. After a terrible global conflict, the Decepticons were on the verge of total defeat when they changed plans suddenly and fled to Earth. There they disguised themselves in other forms, such as cars and planes. But at a moment’s notice, they could once again transform into terrible machines of destruction. To save Earth from their ravages, the Autobots were also forced to come to Earth to battle their age-old enemy.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION




SILVER SURFER #1

RARE 1ST ISSUE OF THE 1988 COMIC BOOK SERIES STARRING FEATURING THE LEGENDARY COLLABORATION BETWEEN TWO OF THE GREATEST COMICS CREATORS OF ALL TIME.
RARE and OUT OF PRINT.
HARD TO FIND COLLECTORS ITEMS.

One of Europe's finest comic book artists, JEAN "MOEBIUS" GIRAUD and co-creator for much of the Marvel Universe, STAN "THE MAN" LEE, team up on an Epic Tale of one of Lee's greatest creations... THE SILVER SURFER.

At the time of it's publication, the world had never seen a Marvel comic published with a European artist's unique and delicate art style. The level of detail and dynamic penwork could not be equaled by any other artist at that time.

The world-eating Galactus presents himself to humanity as a God, quickly winning legions to his anarchistic new religion -- all as a plan to destroy earth by getting humans to destroy themselves. The Silver Surfer, still in exile on earth at this point, sets out to stop him, but hasn't counted on the fanatical devotion of the newly-converted humans.

Written by Stan Lee. Illustrated, coloured and lettered by Moebius (Jean Giraud)

The graphic novel by Lee/Moebius won the Eisner Award for best finite/limited series in 1989.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Visit the POP CULTURE SHOP eBAY Store!

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION


TRANSFORMERS VERSUS GI JOE VINTAGE COMIC BOOK.

published in 1987 by Marvel Comics.
GI Joe and the Transformers were Hasbro's two best selling toy lines. As one might guess, the Autobots teamed up the G.I. Joe and the evil Decepticons teamed up with Cobra.

This is the extremely rare issue.

COLLECTOR'S ITEM! Highly sought after.

Teaming-up the Transformers with the other popular Hasbro property of the 1980s, G.I. Joe. The Joes, the Autobots, and Cobra (after being betrayed by the Decepticons) must join forces to stop the Decepticons from activating an energy drill device to suck up energy from the Earth's core, which would destroy the planet in the process.

The plot revolves around a power station that has the potential to destroy the Earth and help the Decepticons rule their home planet of Cybertron. The story line keeps in sync with both the Transformers and G.I. Joe comic which provides some sudden strange shifts in the story. Therefor it is part of the official continuity of both GI Joe & Transformers.

The series does have importance, as the story featured Bumblebee being destroyed by G.I. Joe forces and rebuilt as Goldbug.
