BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! Urasawa, Naoki, et al. A Collection of Manga Volumes. Viz Media and Other Publishers, 2003-2010.

This lot consists of an assortment of softcover manga volumes published primarily between 2003 and 2010. The collection features several titles by Naoki Urasawa, including multiple volumes of 20th Century Boys and Pluto, the latter co-authored with Osamu Tezuka. Other featured creators and titles include Park Joong-Ki (Shaman Warrior), marginal and Syuji Takeya (Astral Project), Osamu Tezuka (Astro Boy Vol. 5), Masashi Kishimoto (Naruto Vol. 28), Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata (Bakuman Vol. 1), Buronson and Ryoichi Ikegami (Strain Vol. 1), Kumiko Suekane (Afterschool Charisma Vol. 1), Seimu Yoshizaki (Kingyo Used Books Vol. 1), and Hisae Iwaoka (Saturn Apartments Vol. 1). The volumes are issued by various publishers and imprints, including Viz Media (Viz Signature, IKKI, Shonen Jump, and Pulp), Dark Horse Comics, and CMX Manga. A unique feature of this lot is two volumes of 20th Century Boys (identified on packing slips as Vol. 5 and Vol. 9) that remain in their original Amazon.com shipping mailers dated April and December 2009, addressed to Martin Silver of Wynnewood, Pennsylvania. One grouping of Shaman Warrior volumes is bound with an orange ribbon. The books are octavo in format with pictorial wrappers.


Condition report:

The volumes are in generally good condition, showing minor shelf wear to the spine ends and cover corners. There is light rubbing to the wrappers of several volumes. Page edges exhibit faint natural toning consistent with the age of the paper. Two volumes remain in their original 2009 corrugated and plastic shipping mailers, which show minor wear and adhesive residue typical of older packaging.
