My son Alex, his best friend Fernando lost his mom due to Covid on Sunday. He's a special needs child. They started a gofundme page. Thank you! West https://www.gofundme.com/f/in-honor-of-kathleen-gressett?qid=8450400ae0c799a7fb1246b690b1a150

I used my first set so much it fell apart after 16 years!

They are both sold.

You got it!

1 set is sold, 1 set left.

Two friends of mine were arguing their hobbies, comics and cards and which was better. The card friend said, “You collect drawings.” The comic friend said, “Well, you collect pictures of men!” Out of context, they are both right!

Great page!

Actually, in an imperfect world I believe he was striving to be better than average, to be the best Ditko he could be. I guess we all take away different things from philosophy!

A chance to pick up 65 Sensation Comics from the MH collection was too good to pass up. His collection was probably VERY thin on that title. Of all the GA DC titles Sensation Comics seem to be the rarest (probably because most boys didn't buy or keep them), especially in high grade.

The book was owned by dealer Joe V. when I saw it in SD. He sold it to the dentist, letting go of the MH copy. I offered to trade the Mile High run of Sensation Comics to get the book. I flew out to the east coast and traded the 65 Sensation Mile Highs I had for the AT Detective 29, the All Flash MH run, 4 Action Comcs MH's & a nice size check (and with that check I bought the Adventure Comics #42 & #79 MH's from Pat Kochanek). The dentist was able to get back the Det 29 MH.

No, the Church is lower grade.

I was going through scans of books I used to own. Here's a scan of the Allentown Copy of Detective Comics #29 that I took back in 1999.

DC : Sixty Years of the World's Favorite Comic Book Heroes by Les Daniels. In excellent condition! Hardcover. In 1935, popular culture was transformed forever when DC published its first book of all-new, all-original comic material. To the delight of millions of kids everywhere, the modern comic book was born. With the introduction of Superman in 1938. DC Comics made history again, this time with the publication of the first super hero comic book. To this day, the Man of Steel remains the most recognized and celebrated hero in the world. Inspired by its innovative early success, DC went on to create legions of other superheores -- Batman, Wonder Woman, the Flash, Green Lantern, and dozens more of the most popular comic book characters ever created. In the sixty years since the first super heroes were created, the artists, writers, and editors of DC Comics have been developing, refining and extending the reach of their comic book characters. The DC fictional world has branched into a worldwide profusion of entertainment formats: books, toys, movies, radio, television, video games, and an online computer network. Here, for the very first time, is the complete story of America's favorite heroes and their talented, dedicated creators. In over 100 short and spirited essays, author Les Daniels offers remarkable new anecdotes about the company's history, traces the complex genealogies of the characters, describes behind-the-scenes politics that influence the stories, and interviews dozens of artists and writers -- the real stars of his engrossing tales. The reader can open the book anywhere and become immersed immediately in the fantasy world of high adventure and magical mayhem. $14.00

I see they have a run of high grade Pep Comics, including a #1. That book is WAY undervalued when you compare it to Captain America. The Shield is the first American patriotic superhero! It came out much earlier than Cap 1 and is way rarer!!!
