NM Mars Attacks Cards and Comic Books, based on the 1962 set.(please see all 12 scans of set) This set was released by Pocket Comics TM.of Adcor Inc.,in 1988 under license from The Topps Company Inc. as an updated homage to the original famous 1962 Mars Attack set. The series of mini comic books, which were to feature each of the famous Mars Attacks 1962 sci-fi based story cards 1-54 as an X3 size spread on the middle pages. Unfortunately the series was badly advertised/promoted and the first four of 54 issues didn't get the sales neded and they were pulled after number 4 was released,hence are now very rare. Similarily the superb 1962 series on which they are based was also pulled prematurely, but that was due to complaints about the horrific images (gentler times then)? and has since become the most sought after and highly valued non-sport set of all time (and the BEST!!!). Each of the four mini comic also have a different 28 page colour illustrated story by Mario A. Bruni which cronicles the Martian Invasion, beautifully illustrated and superbly drawn (SCAN 11). The mini comics came packed in dealer boxes, Box 1 contained 25 copies of #1's and 25 copies of #2's, in Box 2 came #3's and 4's.On the outside of these two boxes there was a parallel card series to collect from Pocket Comics which had to be cut from the empty box (SCAN 12)..so even rarer than the pocket comics themselves!! In this auction you will get ALL (SCAN 1)four mini comic books #1,#2,#3 and #4, PLUS the four rare Pocket Comic cards 1,2,3 and 4 from the Dealer boxes.All are in NM/Mint condition. |
