Item Description

CAMELOT 3000 #1 - 12 (1983-85) 8.0 VF Complete Maxi-Series! Brian Bolland!

CAMELOT 3000 was a twelve-issue maxi-series written by Mike W. Barr, penciled by British artist Brian Bolland, and published by DC Comics from 1982 to 1985. It was one of DC's first direct market projects, and first maxi-series. It was also the first comic book series to be printed on Baxter paper instead of newsprint.

The series follows the adventures of KING ARTHUR, MERLIN and the reincarnated KNIGHTS OF THE ROUND TABLE as they reemerge in an overpopulated future world of 3000 A.D. to fight off an alien invasion masterminded by ARTHUR's old nemesis, MORGAN LE FAY.

(This was British artist Bolland's first major work in the USA. At the time the logistics of transatlantic collaborations were difficult, and the series was created using the full script method in part because it was the easiest way for Barr and Bolland to work together while an ocean separated them. This was also the first time that Bolland had his work inked regularly by someone other than himself and he wasn't comfortable with this, so made his pencils very heavily detailed in order to leave the inker as little room for creative reinterpretation as possible. This, combined with Bolland's personal goal to top himself with each new issue, made it difficult for him to keep up with the series's monthly schedule, and the last several issues were late. Barr has recounted that Bolland spent NINE MONTHS drawing the final issue!)

Here are all 12 issues of CAMELOT 3000, all in great shape for being nearly 40 years old! The bindings are strong, the pages are nicely white, and there are no blemishes or flaws to be seen! We give the group of 12 issues an aggregate rating of 8.0 VF . . for which the Overstreet Price Guide assigns a value of $60 for the entire set.

But we'll have MERLIN magically transform that price tag down to a tiny $20 . . . with an equally tiny shipping charge of just $3!!

Pull the Sword out of the Stone and put this set on a Throne in your collection!
