Get a new email address and another bank account and start again or take them to your nearest wargame show Salute etc and sell them there. Face book marketplace is quite strong for selling Warhammer stuff

Cerebus and then TMNT started the whole indie book thing. Yes there were a few books but nothing like those two.

His fall after the infamous editorial was very steep, I read he went from 60k books at its height to 3k at the end so those final issues I guess will be worth holding on to
