Nice books, but it looks like CGC screwed up the label on this one. The publisher stated is DC but it's a Marvel comic. Nice catch, Claudio! Nice catch! I wonder if CGC is careless in labeling moderns. In the same batch my GI Joe 26 2nd print was label as first print.

I'm happy to score these.

It ain't sold by me yet. Nice sales data. Roy

Who's Hal, you? Hi Don.

For Hal Jordan.

I do indeed...especially during basketball or softball games... Good choice, I also prefer this energy drink over the others. (thumbs u

Dear Gator, I know you drink Coke Zero, but do you also drink Gatorade?

Very impress batch and good luck. I say average choice if it's the value, but a great choice to preserve the books as pedigree status.

Since it's so low on the totem pole and not cost worthy, it's best to leave it as is and get a repro cover (seen on ebay) for about $20.

Maybe that's about tho change Let's assume the FMV of SC4 has increase 15-20% the last few years. At that rate, $32200-$33600 would be a more realistic value for the Mohawk copy. (thumbs u

Nice interior and PQ on that copy. That rusted staple is a turn-off.

Nice score!

The Showcase 22 "Savannah" was must likely a proxy battle.

That's more than double the FMV. It last sold in 2009 for $28K.

Very very nice example. May be lower grade, but thats a fine book regardless of any number. PQ and all! Definitely one of the best Superman covers out there.

it ended at 20K, with BP it was 23900, correct... live bidding you have to bid via increment, so how did it just "jump" from 14 to 20K...it would have had to of progressed by $1K increments, so in theory, at least 6 bids would have had to of been made (maybe very quickly, don't know, didn't see it)... was an internet proxy what won it? was it bid by heritage live or by floor, etc...all these factor into the value, if one can read between the lines (thumbs u I had internet contact and saw the live bid. I had "18200" ready to enter and in 1 nanosecond it jumped from 14 to 20. I did not even have time to click!! Doesn't matter as I was not willing to go over 20. Before the live auction, it was at $13K+BP for $15500 than in jump to $20K. Looks like proxy bids jumped it up quickly. All before buyer's premium: possible three proxy bids. Let's make an assumption, one proxy bid was $18K, second $19K, and third $20K.

As I recalled and as you said...it jumped from $14K to $20K and at least two bids took it to $24K.

to pay 23900 for a 8.0 that looks like an avg 8.0 one would "assume" they might have had some pressing thoughts about it ? Still very nice even if no possible potential. with multiple sales in the 17K range, almost 24K is not comparable to me Do you feel this copy has potential? The slight rusted staples is a somewhat turn-off, but great copy overall. my gut was this was (and is) a sub 20K copy...someone(s) obviously think diffferently than me and presumably put their money where their mouth is, but that doesn't sway my opinion... there is nothing "new" that would cause this copy to sell for 40% more than avg, given it is not as nice as 2 other 8.0's that sold for considerably less... just my I like your thinking and it could have been "I have to get it".
