A 3.0 sold for $350 in October 2019; a 4.0 sold for $515 in February 2020. "Some strange kind of internal swipery may have been at work [at Standard] since Out of the Shadows #11 contains a story, 'The Wig,' which is very similar to 'The Fatal Strand' [Adventures into Darkness #8]. In 'The Wig,' by a capable artist named Mike Roy, a barber doesn't appreciate the humor of one of his wiseguy customers and proceeds to cut the man's throat. The only feature of the victim which does appeal to the bald barber is his rich blond hair. Hairless Leon makes a wig out of the golden locks... only to discover that the wig has 'ideas' of its own. In a conclusion quite reminiscent of the earlier tale, the wig strangles the bad guy and then, like some kind of primeval tribble, waddles downstairs to join the rest of the golden jokester's body parts in a makeshift grave." A deluxe limited edition of 12 hardcover catalogues is available, in addition to a small number of softcovers. 400 lots, fully illustrated. Fun reference, great keepsake. Softcover $40, deluxe hardcover with dust jacket and limitation plate $200. Eight of the 12 hardcovers are pre-ordered and the rest will go quickly, so reserve yours now.
