Comics has something of a revolution in the early 90s.  I'm not an expert on the subject, but I think it was due in part to computer-generated artwork, and new publishers.  This was the period in which Superman "died", as well.  (I mostly collected Thor.)

I got a D20 module the other day, off of Ebay, that might be a collectors item one day.

It is The Eldest Son, part of the Dark Heaven Legends game line by Reaper Miniatures.  

It was Reaper's first and only (I think) attempt at a module to directly support their miniatures line.  It is actually not bad, and the interior and cover art are very good (as one might expect).

Since there was only one in the line (the second, Vicious Circle, was cancelled), it seems like the sort of collecting trivia that might be popular in two decades.

I'm looking for a copy of the Rappan Athuk Reloaded boxed set in NM condition. Anyone got a spare?

OK...not technically a D20 product.  It is for Castles and Crusades, but I think this belongs in the OGL/D20 camp.

Not a bad price so far.

On the subject...

I picked up Rappan Athuk---Reloaded the other day, both as an investment (it sells for $75 in the stores and has already sold for as much as $100 online) and out of curiousity.  

Anyway, if you play 3rd edition, it's a nice purchase, the dozens of levels and hundreds of pages could keep your group busy for awhile. If you play another version of D&D, it could be nice purchase because unlike other 3rd ed products there are no stat blocks crapping up the descriptions...they are all in another book, separate from the main text. Anothee book contains all the maps.  Without the ever annoying stat blocks, it doesn't interfere with a DM's creative juices if he wants to convert it to another edition.

Yep...there was 1000 printed and they are all sold out. And these came with numbered cards a few of which got the person prizes or were signed by Demon Lords
One card allowed free Necromancer Games products for life I believe and don't think anyone has come forward yet (demon signed one has been announced though)

Necromancer Games has gone to the model of placing the majority of its stat blocks at the back (something I prefer what with d20's way of presenting them.)
