The #59 usually sells for £75-100 so you can buy this lot and then make your money back on the other 22 copies. I sold an extremely nice one for £99 at the back end of last year and another nice one went for £80 around a month ago, so the £150 isn't such a bad deal.
Re: the Marvelman #25, if you genuinely want a copy I know of a couple in people's collections and they'd listen to serious offers. But then I think a nice graded copy would probably sell for around £5-10k at auction depending on the day.
Its probably the most valuable British comic right at the moment and most likely a good candidate for an investment depending on how the new miracleman series pans out.
Even though I'm in the middle of a reduction, there are still a few issues I'm still after
I still need a better copy of the 1981 Cheeky Summer Special, four issues of Sperky (77, 121, 123 and 126) and the last Topper (No. 1963, even if it means getting a whole year of issues, as I had done recently with the Beezer.)
I am also after a better copy of the third issue of Whizzer and Chips (minus free gift)
Many thanks koollectablz - regarding Marvelman 25, sadly I couldn't afford anything like that at the moment - it's really is just a wish on my wishlist!

Hi,
Ewan and I have been trying to figure out how many known copies of Marvelman 25 exist. Can you provide any more info on the ones you know about?

I have no regrets not buying one for £15 ten years ago
is the answer to that.
