Thank you for visiting us at Slab Comics. Our goal is to
preserve modern comic books, which are key issues, or variant covers of key issues, by
having them graded and added to the National Registry.
For every eighteen dollar donation that we receive, we will
be able to add one comic book to the national registry. Please help us preserve
our history so that future generations can enjoy this uniquely American Art
Form (as described in this Congressional Resolution).
