Yeah, what it says on the tin, basically.

I've got copies of all 5 Zenith reprints from Titan Books and can't decide a fair price to ask for them. What with the near religious obsession of Grant Morrison in these here parts I thought you might be able to advise...

They're in okay, readable condition. They're not mint, they're not falling apart either. Covers show wear and tear and general damage, not good really.

Inside they're perfect though. Nice clean reprints too, in the old Titan style.

On the other hand there's no sign of an end to the problems that have stopped the recent editions being sold. So they're going to be on the rare side.

Oh, I don't know, I don't know at all. Hence my asking for advice.

Erm...well, if anyone wants to offer me a tenner for the lot then we can talk. I'll be mistly using four letter words but that's still talking.

Two pounds was a bargain. Anyone got a more average price?

Well, I picked up one of them in the Notting Hill Book and Comic Exchange for £4, which I imagine is probably a bit closer to fair value. Either that or I wuz robbed.

The best thing to do, pace MacGuyver, might be to stick them on eBay, where prices usually find a level, or look at the prices previous sellers got...

Oopsy. Sax beat me to the punch there. So, there's a happy answer. eBay - separating halfwits from their hardearned since 1995.

A year or two ago, Nemesis and Charley's War collections from the same period were going for about £20 each on ebay. Given the rarity of Zenith, I think the fair price has nothing to do with it. You could make a bloody fortune off these if you offer internationally as a single lot.

I've been driving around with a padded envelope containing the first two books in the trunk for months now.

Soon, Flux, soon.
