The "Grumpy" Take: If you’re going to collect a modern key, it might as well look spectacular. This is the Stjepan Šejić Variant of Teen Titans #12. Šejić has a way of making characters look better than they have any right to, and this cover is no exception. It’s the start of the "Gotham Resistance" arc, featuring the first cameo of The Batman Who Laughs, but let’s be honest—you’re here for that gorgeous cover art.
This copy is Raw and Ungraded. I’m not a professional grader—I’m a guy who values good art and a quiet room. It’s a modern book that’s been handled with care, but I’m not breaking out a protractor to check the corners. Check the photos, admire the linework, and bid accordingly.
Issue: Teen Titans #12 (2017)
Variant: Stjepan Šejić Cover (The "Pretty" Version)
Key Factor: Part 1 of "Gotham Resistance." Early Batman Who Laughs tie-in!
Condition: Raw/Ungraded. It looks sharp enough to cut, but I’ll let you be the judge.
I am The Grumpy Apothecary (AKA Grumpy Comics). Just me, a roll of tape, and a long memory for people who don't read the shipping terms.
The Armor: This book comes individually bagged and boarded. It ships in a Gemini Comic Book Mailer, because shipping comics in a bubble mailer is a sin I won't commit. 🛡️
Consolidated Shipping: * I can fit up to 10 bagged and boarded comics per mailer.
I can fit up to 3 slabbed comics per mailer.
WAIT FOR THE INVOICE if you win multiple auctions. If you pay separately, I’m shipping them separately. Let's save us both the headache.
The Method: I ship USPS Ground to keep it affordable.
The Timeline: I ship within five business days. I’m a person, not a teleportation device.
I don’t grade these. I leave the technical nitpicking to the people with the white gloves. I just source the art and pack it like it’s a national treasure. I don’t do "corporate pep talks," but I do do "bulletproof shipping."
L@@K! SEJIĆ VARIANT! MODERN KEY! BE GRUMPY! 🎨🦇📈
