Description & Details
This auction features a fantastic Green Lantern collection, gaming cards like Magic the Gathering and Pokemon, die-cast collectibles, X-Men comics and more.
The Green Lantern collection contains Silver Age cornerstones like Showcase #22 and Green Lantern #1 (1960) through modern epics like Blackest Night, Rebirth, and Brightest Day, the catalog covers key first appearances, major story arcs, signed editions, Absolutes, hardcovers, trades, figures, and promo items that are carefully grouped for both readers and high‑end collectors. We've decided to use this opportunity to launch our Green Lantern creator, Martin Nodell limited edition and signed Alan Scott figures. Complementing the Lantern focus is a strong lineup of X‑Men, Pokémon and Magic: The Gathering, vintage and modern non‑sports cards (Marvel, DC, TV and movies, wrestling), plus die‑cast vehicles and Masters of the Universe figure singles and lots.
This auction is perfectly timed with DC Studios’ new Green Lantern–focused series Lanterns premiering August 16, 2026 on HBO and Max, a noir‑style thriller following veteran Hal Jordan and new recruit John Stewart as they investigate a murder in the American heartland. As anticipation builds and the Green Lantern Corps returns to mainstream spotlight, demand is rising for key issues featuring Hal, John, Guy Gardner, the Guardians, and classic villains like Sinestro and Star Sapphire—many of which are represented here in depth. Between the landmark Silver Age origins, Bronze Age Adams/O’Neil social‑issue run, pivotal 1980s–2000s Corps and Earth‑based storylines, and modern omnibuses and Absolutes, this sale offers an ideal opportunity for collectors who want to lock in core Lantern material ahead of the show.
Highlights within the Lantern focus include cornerstone keys (Showcase #22–24, Green Lantern #1, early Silver issues with first appearances of Pieface, Tomar‑Re, Sinestro, Star Sapphire, Dr. Polaris, Black Hand, Guy Gardner, the Omega Men, and more), complete or near complete runs (Vol. 3 and Vol. 4, Mosaic, Larfleeze, Guy Gardner/Warrior), modern event sets (full Blackest Night with rings, Brightest Day, Far Sector, Johns‑era runs with signed copies, premium Absolutes and DC Archive Editions), and a broad array of figures, statues, toys, collectibles, and promo pieces to round out displays. Add in strong crossover lots like Crisis on Infinite Earths, New Teen Titans keys, Spectre runs, harder to find Pokémon singles (Charizard, Shadowless, e‑Reader and Delta Species holos), graded Marvel Universe card groups, and vintage MOTU figure singles and groups.
