Wimbledon Green (Paperback)

Wimbledon Green, legendary cartoonist Seth’s charming caper set in the high-stakes world of mint-condition comic book collecting–now available in paperback!

Who is Wimbledon Green? Everybody who’s anybody in comics has something to say: auctioneers, conventioneers, retailers and Green’s own rivals weigh in on the man, his vast collection of comic books, and just how on earth he manages to keep acquiring them! His reputation precedes him and yet little is known of the man behind the myth, nay, legend of having brokered the largest sale of collectible comics in known history.

In Wimbledon Green: The Greatest Comic Book Collector in the World, critically acclaimed cartoonist and illustrator Seth draws us into a farcical world filled with passionate, exacting characters in a love letter to the art of comics and the inexplicable need to own as many comics as you can in pristine, mint condition.

This gorgeous paperback of a D&Q classic is available for purchase on its own or as part of a boxed set, also coming to stores this fall!

“The highs, lows, hopes and dreams of his complex, memorable characters, such as… Wimbledon Green, the “greatest comic book collector in the world,” are examined in scintillating and finite detail.”— Maclean’s Magazine

“Seth’s wondrously satirical look at the ossified nostalgia of the world of comics’ collectors.” —Publishers Weekly

“Wimbledon Green's past is as enigmatic as one of the masked crimefighters whose adventures Green has amassed in the vast library of his Wayne Manor-like estate…. He may be a sophisticated genius. He may be a pompous fan-boy. But he's undoubtedly a comic book fan, and so is Seth.” — The Winnipeg Free Press"

Seth’s wondrously satirical look at the ossified nostalgia of the world of comics’ collectors.
