At this rate it won't be long before it passes Marvel Comics #1 in 9.0 value. Look at the bright side - Marvel fanboys can laugh that it has taken this long for a big DC SA key to surpass it since a few SA Marvel keys did that a while back. The market knows something. It's speculating either the 9.0 may be the best grade out there...or a 9.2 may still be lurking out there.

The ComicLink 9.0 is in the CGC gallery. I see a 7.5 displayed in the CGC gallery, no? Don't know what happen...maybe they rotate the gallery pictures time to time. Yes, I did see the ComicLink 9.0 in a new holder.

The ComicLink 9.0 is in the CGC gallery.

Since it had off-white pages it deserves a 10-25% premium. I may raise the valuations, since when will the next time you will see a 8.5 plus for sale. I feel like doing a re-subb. Where's aman619 ? He said no way a SC22 in 9.2 would fetch $100k...it just might now ! Yelp, It would be in the 100K club. Man...your 7.5 ow/w looks so sweet now. (thumbs u Any SC22 6 and above is a slam dunk!! That 6.5 oughta FLY out of ebay now ! Im here and Im surprised about the 59K sale. I was thinking earlier today that the current market fever is scary, That highs are too high and many sales seem out of whack. But, then I think Ive felt that way before... at price levels far below where we are now. I am leery of the sudden price acceleration we are witnessing with Sh22. Its all happening sp fast, and the movie hasn't even bombed yet! kidding, but thats a distinct possibility isnt it? SHowcase 22 has been the first appearance of GL for 40 years now, And in the past 6 months, prices have skyrocketed. WLL A 9.2 REACH 100K? The 50K sale makes it possible. anyway. dont label me a hater. my copy is on that llst and Im doing fine with it thank you very much. Ive thought 22 has been undervalued for a long time. But this ride its on is pretty wild. Hope it doesnt blow a tread!

Today...history is made. Congrats to all the members and the 6.0 and above members

Scheduled for grading Good luck! Official: Universal 3.5 CREAM TO OFF-WHITE Not bad, I was really hoping for the 4.0 but hey, it is what it is. Owning a solid copy is cool. I guess we will see your copy soon.

I think a lone 9.0 would have sold for $65-80K. As tth2 mention, the 9.0 is in good hands and my 8.5 is in good hands. I think DocJoe mention he may auction his. I think he will get $35K now. Hey...don't forget about us peons out here...my 7.5 ain't raw peanuts!! (thumbs u I'll take your copy over the 8.0 Mound City Copy anyday. (thumbs u

And this HA sale was for the weaker looking of the 9.0s. So...the ComicLink copy should be $65-80K.

His copy is a 8.5 cream/off white pages.

Scheduled for grading Good luck!

I'm not a fan of LT-OW unless it is a Golden Age. I just would pass on that 8.5 copy...just my preference.

Thanks (thumbs u Green Lantern #1 is not as scarce as Showcase 22 in high grade. I just wanted to upgrade my low grade copy.

You had a nice Green Lantern #1 and I wish I bought that from you. There are plenty of other 7.0s out there if you are still looking. (thumbs u Yours was a decent price...and I like the eye appeal. It was the 7.0 that Brent auctioned off last week. Checked the ended auction...unfortunately I missed it. Decent deal on the GL1 7.0. (thumbs u What did it go for? Really low...like $1600.

Hi Everyone, The CGC census has been updated. The new tally is now 268. No new copies above 4.5 the last month. (thumbs u Below is the list of the new additions. 1- 4.5 1- 4.0 2- 1.8 1- 2.5 2- 2.0 1- 1.0 Deletions 1- 9.0 1- 7.5 Restored 1.3.5 1-2.5 2-0.5

Good to know...and hope someday to see this copy.

Perhaps the CL 9.0 was resubbed. One out of many possible explanations? The Comic Link copy looks like it was re-subbed if you look at the CGC gallery. Does that mean the Detective27kid copy has not be graded yet by the buyer? I highly doubt that the old Clink 9.0 copy was resubbed. As Tim alluded in an earlier post, it is in very strong hands. I actually meant re-holdered...since it was in the old CGC label...if you look at the #39 Overstreet on the first page ComicLink ad, this copy is in the old holder. I think CGC must have made a mistake it the last census and added the restored 9.0 copy to the universal grade in the last census. Since you mention strong hands, Palamas 7.5, Showcase22gr1959 8.5, Peewee2 7.5 are also in very strong hands. There would be quite an incentive to do a resub if it were an old label even if one weren't planning on selling it all all (your definition of strong hands?). I recently had books I don't plan on selling resubbed. They were in old labels and the grading seemed about right. So since I was going to reholder them anyways, I accepted the risk and cost. Quite true and sometimes worth the risk and cost to improve the grade for the collection. For me, it's more of CGC handling the book (taking it out of the holder, grading again) and risking additional wear. I can always re-sub my SC22 and hope for a higher grade since it had a grader's notes of 8.5 and 9.0.
