Classics Illustrated Study Guide #19 ~ Adapts Edmond Rostand's Cyrano de Bergerac. Adapted by Ken Fitch. Illustrated by Alex Blum. Cover art by Richard Case. Essay by Sherwood Smith, M.A. Acclaim Books, June 1997. It is hard to believe that these issues are over fifteen years old! An interesting addition to Classics Illustrated history that has been largely overlooked by collectors. This copy is fine with light wear and a small scuff on Cyrano's cheek.

Digest format is not very popular with collectors. Somebody should have told the folks at Acclaim Books that before they launched their 1997 Classics Illustrated series. As it was, the series didn't sell well and was cancelled after 62 issues. Of significance, it did add three new issues to the Classics Illustrated canon. Because of their dismal sales, this series is getting difficult to find.

I'm a fairly conservative grader. Since comic book grading is pretty subjective, please base your bid on my scan of the comic and make up your own mind about the value.
