My brother met Mike Diana, and got me this from new york about three years ago because he knew I loved the 'Iron Monkey' album cover Diana did, but this comic is waaaaay to sick for me. No wonder he went to jail. All that aside, his style is visceral and has merit, and for serious comic collectors this is a historical piece
Anyway, this copy is a first edition, and is signed by Mike Diana as well. Unsigned this horrid collection fetches over £100, so who knows what this signed version is worth. I'm selling it for f**k all as I need some quick cash.
If you're interested check it out on ebay

Was it any good?
It was horrendous, and you flinch at every one of the 224 pages. It's kind of the comic equivalent of 'a serbian film' But it's a big bit of comic history, so I wanted to check it out. Moments of Diana's single panel work are real nice though - but on the whole I have never seen anything else like it
