Description :

Vertigo publishers present the *Exterminators* collection features a tightly curated assortment of comic books. 26 issues total. One extra-large issue by the Bug Brothers.


All issues are in protective sleeves with boards. Missing volumes 2,3,4,5. Twenty-Six of thirty in the series.

The display highlights the series’ gritty, darkly humorous take on pest control, blending horror, satire, and urban grime into a distinctive visual identity. Each feature highly detailed illustrations of oversized insects—cockroaches, beetles, and other urban pests—rendered with unsettling realism. Human characters in exterminator gear appear alongside the creatures, often depicted in tense or chaotic scenes that hint at the series’ blend of action and dark comedy.

The titles are printed in large, rugged lettering that reinforces the grimy, underground tone of the series. The color palettes lean heavily into earth tones, sickly greens, and gritty textures, giving each issue a visceral, tactile feel. The variety of issues on display emphasizes the series’ commitment to visual storytelling and its unique niche within modern comic culture. The series’ distinctive mix of grotesque humor, environmental commentary, and stylized horror, make it an appealing set for collectors who appreciate unconventional, character‑driven comic art.
