White Dragon Comics, 246 Stadden Road Suite 202 in Tannersville, was robbed sometime late on April 19 or early on April 20, Pocono Township police wrote in a release. The burglar appears to have smashed the front door before making off with several vintage issues, authorities said.

A White Dragon spokesperson told Daily Voice that the missing comics were "high-end wall books," including early appearances of the X-Men, Wolverine, and the first appearance of Harley Quinn.

The spokesman estimated the losses at about $3,000.

"The response from our friends and community has been overwhelming," White Dragon wrote on Facebook. "Being burgled will certainly not break what we have grown together."

Anyone with information is asked to call Corporal Austin Anglemyer of the Pocono Twp. Police Department at 570-629-7200 ext. 238 or email aranglemyer@poconopd.org. Anonymous tips can be submitted at the Monroe County Crime Watch webpage.
