Welcome to Gemstone Publishing! Best known as the home of The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide, Gemstone Publishing was formed by Diamond Comic Distributors President and Chief Executive Officer Stephen A. Geppi as a conduit for his efforts in preserving and promoting the history of the comics medium. Starting out, Gemstone separately acquired Russ Cochran Publisher and Overstreet Publications, which brought with them The Complete EC Library and the noted line of price guides, respectively. As a result, Gemstone also publishes The Overstreet Comic Book Grading Guide, The Big Big Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide, Hake’s Price Guide to Character Toys, The Overstreet Toy Ring Price Guide, and The Overstreet Indian Arrowheads Identification and Price Guide, and co-published Tales of Terror! - The EC Companion with Fantagraphics Books. Additionally, Gemstone has licensed with Disney Publishing Worldwide and publishes a variety of Disney Comic Books featuring many of the beloved characters that had not appeared on comics shop shelves for years, including Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, and others. Gemstone also has several projects in the works with the acclaimed EC Comics of the 1950s. In 2002, Gemstone and sister company Diamond International Galleries launched Scoop, a free, weekly information e-mail newsletter, which has grown in readership at an amazing rate.
