About this deal

Based on the issue numbers in the listing (lots 1-9, 11-19, 21-29, 34, 36, 40, 41, 43-45, 50 and more), this lot spans well into the higher numbers, which places it firmly within the third volume of The Demon published from 1990 to 1995, written initially by Alan Grant and later by Garth Ennis. The Demon centres on Etrigan, a DC Comics superhero who is a demon from Hell allied with the forces of good, primarily because of his bond with a human host named Jason Blood. Etrigan first appeared in The Demon #1 in September 1972, created by Jack Kirby. He is commonly depicted as a muscular humanoid creature with orange or yellow skin, horns, red eyes, and pointed, webbed ears, and frequently speaks in rhymes. Alan Grant launched a second ongoing title in 1990, which lasted 58 issues, two Annuals, and one #0 issue. Garth Ennis took over the title beginning with issue #40, and his run included the first appearance of his character Hitman. This large lot of 40 comics is ideal for fans of DC's darker supernatural corner, collectors building a run of the 1990s series, or readers interested in the work of both Grant and Ennis on the character.
