  1. I agree with Rick and Rich. Be sure and check the auction again. He's updated with many scans. Very nice book. Are we allowed to own TWO copies of a 22 ? Why don't see anything wrong with that? Two's a couple and three is a company.
  2. It looks to be on the CGC case...not the book. kimik, if you're still looking for one, this may be it. It will depend on the price. I have a 5.0 already, plus a slabbed 4.0 and possibly another copy on the way. Looking at the stain a little closer it looks more like a circle with some crossed lines through it written lightly in pen/pencil. kimik, I asked the seller a question about it.....will update the Boards if/when I get a response. Looks like Parlez vous francais had answered kimik questions. Anybody looking to own a nice copy, this is your chance.
  3. I have a SC 22 at cgc now that might be in the 5.5 range...will be watching this one closely! Good luck...hope it achieves that grade. Regarding the 5.5 on Ebay, this is definitely one of the better 5.5 around. The color and page quality is astounding. My prediction is it will sell between $3000-4000. Anybody else wants to make a prediction?
  4. Darn it kimik!! I thought you were referencing a KILLER copy !! Green Lantern movie talk on The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien. http://splashpage.mtv.com/2009/08/27/bradley-cooper-on-his-green-lantern-audition-i-couldnt-not-do-christian-bales-batman/#more-20479 I can't wait to see the flick. I hope the red head (Abin Sur) is in there... Abin Sur appearance would be a plus for us Green Lantern fans. If he's not in the first movie, maybe the second. I guess I'm getting ahead of myself here. Hard to do any type origin story w/o him. Seven low grade copies in Comic Connect now...still none grade higher than 4.0. There is a 3.5 which actually looks very presentable if anybody would like a copy. To reiterate, CGC 5.0 graded copy are scarce and good investment. http://www.comicconnect.com/bookSearch.php?order=&sort=asc&pageNum=0&pageSize=50&aSearchPos=up&searchType=advanced&title=showcase&issue=22&GO.x=22&GO.y=4&GO=GO i only see the 1 trashed copy on cc ?? Comic Connect's site must been have updating last night and it was a glitch. I thought these books were kind of familiar because I have seen them on there site before. It seems to good to be true and the price were a bit low . I have checked and I only see one now. I Didn't meet to shock everyone.

  8. Darn it kimik!! I thought you were referencing a KILLER copy !! Elitist high grade collector! Seriously, though, I am curious to see how high this one goes as it will tell us how robust the market is. If it tops $200, I am going to laugh hard. Hey, let's not make to much fun about the comic connect copy. It 's been well loved by kids. Just Imagine how many times it's passed around in school.
  9. Your are correct. There are very copies for sell the the market place right now and a majority of them grades less than 4.0. My copies aren't up for sell anytime soon or not at all (thumbs u .
  10. Very nice run (greedy !) (thumbs u well. shucks you shamed me into digging a few out. very low res camera photo. Theyre all nice enough, but close inspection reveals stuff this pic doesnt show. Enjoy. Very Nice!!! Are the two Showcase #22 all unrestored? What grade is the slabbed one. Question:Why is Showcase #22 is hard to find? Answer: Because krytospidey, aman, and others have more than one copy.

  12. Very nice run (greedy !) Nice four copies!!! These are my grades from left to right for what I can see. 2.5, 3.5, 2.0, 3.5.
  13. (It's a joke aman). Yes, post them, we'd love to see them. The PQ avg or above avg ? Yeah, the club would love to see them! It will be a great addition to this club.
  14. Just the reverse. Good news for anyone hoarding Showcase 22s, because the run up lasts longer as the anticipation time is what causes the run up. The movie will get made, but the problems attached to it may drag it out a bit. Perhaps one day it will get killed, but certainly most people don't believe that right now. Book isn't cooling whatsoever right now, as demand is still at a fever pitch and based on the offers on copies I've had above 6.0, it makes it nearly impossible to turn down some of the offers i've received. But I have thus far because I believe the future on this book is still very bright. This is just the pause that refreshes. There are so few copies out there for sale. If any copies (normally grades less than 5.0) that are priced reasonably, it would be snatch up. Take this opportunity to buy and you will be rewarded in the long term.
  15. Show off. Books above five figures are out of most collector's range. With prices of quality vintage comics climbing steady off the past years, five figure prices will be in the past. I predict if a Showcase #22 CGC 9.2 ever surface, it will be in the 100000 the club. no way jose. I think it would be a possibility. These are a few recent sales of Showcase 4. Showcase #4 9.6 CGC 5/22/2009 Heritage Sale $179,250 Showcase #4 9.4 CGC ComicConnect sale, 9/29/2008 $160,200

  17. Metropolis had a Showcase 22 CGC 8.0 a few days ago and it sold already. It was a private sale, and no price was disclose. Rick, was that the copy you offer $12500 from a private collector. If it was, this copy probably sold for over $15000+???20000 +
  18. Has the movie been announced when it will hit the theatres? Any other threads on the Boards about it? [/quote Yes, the movie has been announced and is expected for middle of 2011 release. Ryan Reynolds is cast to be Hal Jordan.
  19. Did Pacific Comic Exchange sell their CGC 3.0 copy for $850.00? Below are some recent sales from a few dealers. Metropolis 2.5 raw $475 Harley Yee 5.0 raw $1400 4.0 raw $ 900 I would say harley's copies were more like 4.0 and 3.0 (thumbs u Looking at Harley's grading system on books in the past, i'd have to concur as well Any collector or investor planning to pay higher dollar for this book, should definitely buy a CGC graded copy; otherwise find, a second opinion or look at the book thoroughly.

  21. But, it is such a nice copy......... My estimate is it probably will sell between $175-$300.
  22. Video footage would kick azz! As for the enjoyment factor, I was just rearranging my slabbed Avenger collection and thinking to myself "holy $%it!, this is cumbersome and somewhat annoying to move about." To crack or not to crack....... Looking forward to to the video footage. YouTube? Also, yes, peewee is an elite collector who enjoys the quality of vintage material (touch, see, and smell).
  23. Thanks to Rick for the speeeedy service and the opportunity to own this GEM. Anyone wanting to do biz with Rick will have no problema. He's fast, knowledgeable, fair, honest, and ships ultra fast. Enjoy the scans of a 50 year old rare event! Well done!!! Absolutely gorgeous!!! Bone white pages!!! Congrats!!! Over five digits???
