Hi guys, sorry for digging up an old topic but i just wanted some help.

I have inherited a large, large pile of comics and although i am familiar with most of them, i havent a clue about this one.

"Crisis presents no 2 - Xpresso Special: The best in european strip art"

Finding out any info about it has been a nightmare. I have kept an eye on ebay recently to try find a seller but as of yet no avail. Any info on its series run, value etc would be appreciated!

the second xpresso special is worth about £90 if Large48 is wanting it .... otherwise £2 to me 

[ham89]

Lol well thanks for the info!

I am very open to offers but if I get non, it will be on eBay in a few days with a starting price of 99p.

Now just to get through the rest of these, only a few hundred to go!

Dale,

I thought you where the only one that paid over the odds for Number 2's............

Has anyone got the u.s continuations of accident man, sex warrior and (i think) brats bizarre (?) that were published independently after Toxic! collapsed? I have sundry few somewhere, but no idea how many were published.

SBT

Yes I have em all. There were 3 issues for Accident Man (Dark Horse), 2 for Sex warriors (Dark Horse) and 4 for Brats Bizarre (epic "heavy hitters" line). One's can also add the 4 issues of Terrarists (epic "heavy hitters" line) but technically, even if it's Pat Mills material from the exact same period they never appeared in Toxic!.

A retailer copy of Toxic! #1 was also in circulation (slightly different from the regular first issue), it is briefly described here http://whatisahero.over-blog.com/article-official-goodies-part-three-miscellaneous-88059615.html.

Crisis presents 3 the second Expresso Special, with a John Bolton Cover and a mis of new and reprinted European material
Revolver special 1 Revolver, The Horror special.  Bolton Cover, new content.

Ooh, cheers for that. I found my copies of the post-Toxic US editions in the attic recently, and I must get the remaining issues sometime. That sampler Toxic looks tempting- just how rare is it?
