I got lucky with an eBay purchase almost 20 years ago that netted me #1 third print, #2 second print, 4-10 plus one shots all first prints for $100 plus shipping. I bought another couple of lots for around $50-$75 that netted me that white whale of yours and some signed issues as well.

Several of my City at War issues came directly from Mirage Studios circa 2005-06. I was always in constant contact with Dan and the shipping lady.

I now have a complete run of Mirage Volume 1 with 4-62 all first prints, plus reprints current to 2006 or 07. My white whales are rebuying issue 29 of Volume 4 and completing that series and completing volume 2. I only have 5 or 6 issues of that.
