Condition report:
The collection is in overall excellent condition, appearing near-mint with sharp corners and straight, uncracked spines across both hardcovers and trade paperbacks (photos 1, 2, and 4). A significant portion of the lot remains in original factory shrink-wrap, including Batman: Damned and several volumes of the Detective Comics New 52 run (photos 3 and 4).
