Magnus Penguin (TRADE ONLY)

I am sure this will stir up some trouble but Sean Chen sent me a magnus penguin strictly for the purposes of getting my comic collection going again. It is not numbered but it is signed. He will be stepping in here at some point to verify this. I asked him to post something here. In any case I am looking to trade Valiant comics. I am not interested in variants or VH2. PM me with all offers. I would like this to go to someone who is not on the sign up list for the magnus penguin but does have one or more of the others.

I'll get a list together tonight for that too, Rube. I've got the Shadowman of Trent's coming from Svair, and would LOVE the Magnus.

Between this and the golds you might end up getting them all. Just depends on what you come up with.

Yeah. He was in chat one night with me and a couple others and we just hit it off and he knew about my collection being sold last year. Initially he wanted me to sell it for airfare to the new york con. Told him that would not even begin to dent what it would cost. So he said get some comics.

Hey guys,

I just wanted to confirm that I did send Rubiks-Q-Bert a Magnus Penguin expressly to be traded for Valiant Comics.

The Magnus Penguin is identical to the rest of the numbered run. It is signed and labeled as AP (artist's proof) and was created as one of a few spares in the event that some of the numbered series gets damaged. It does not include the certification or package art that is usually comes with the Valiant Penguins because those have yet to be created by Svair.

The regular numbered series won't be sent out for another month since I will be in deadline hell for a while. The next Valiant Penguin will be announced soon afterward.

So, bid away gents, let's get this guy some back issues!

-Sean

Sean, you are a pillar, you really are!

I've got a box and a half of doubles to send Rube's way for your efforts!

I mean that from the bottom of my heart, you really didn't have to do that. So, in my own small way, I'm going to help our buddy Rubik along too.

Just to echo what everyone else has said, what a really cool gesture by Sean. Really nice - a class act

Good for RQB, and big ups to Sean C.

Consider this closed. DJ or Greg if you want to close this that would be ok.

Next one? Very cool, we were just talking about whether or not the Magnus penguin would be the last for a while. Glad to see it's not, well done, Sean.

No problem, I'll lock it right now.
