Bat-Man

Give me your 36! Well how would we make an even trade my 36 and my 1st born child for your 35???

Same here. I read those pre Robin stories(and the early stuff from BATMAN) around once a year. Over the past two months I read them before bed, in part to wind down. Nice to curl up to a good book, but heck why not a book with pictures - GA Bat pictures. I was always wondering how they'd end such fascinating stories. Especially in 34 where he fights the in the car and it goes of the mountain - will Batman die? - NO! - he grabs the bat-rope to the bat-gyro and off he goes and saves the day. I've read my Tec and Batman Vol. 1 Archives so many times.

Gardner Fox deserves more than an honorable mention in that list. Very true. How could I forget him! List correct !

I like the cover to #28, but there definitely is something cool about how that book looks coverless. #27 has been reprinted a zillion times, Dr. Death made it into the 30's to the 70's book, and the Monk stories were in a 100 pager. The fact that it's the second Batman story, and was unreprinted for such a long time(not until the Archives edition in the nineties) has added to its mystique. true, and if 28 was a Bat cover, more collectors would be familiar with the story @ Dolby Dickles- I think the key word in the early adventures is the mystique, such an incredible first year intro Batman had. Stories and all. Covers like 29,31,35 etc etc leave the audience in awe. I am impressed with the legacy Bill Finger, Bob Kane, Jerry Robinson, and MANY GHOSTS ARTISTS AND WRITERS left behind with these glorious early adventures. Read them all over 20 times but I always enjoy them. And oh man, Primetime!, could you imagine a Tec 28 cover? If it was as myesterious as 29 and 31 - good lord!

It's complete and unrestored, even has a married Back Cover. It's about a "VG" if I were to just grade the interior. if the back cover is married, doesn't that make it restored? No not in the current state. It's not physically attached. It would be a Green. But if I did have it attached it would be a purple restored indeed. I know the term "married" is not the best term as it makes it sound attached to the rest (restored) but I mean married as included with (qualified green)

It's complete and unrestored, even has a married Back Cover. It's about a "VG" if I were to just grade the interior.

Fantastic! Maybe I'm crazy, but my favorite book in that shot is the coverless #28. I like that issue a lot. Very underrated. I love the 28. Was incredibly difficult to track down. And you can call me crazy as well but I actually like the 28 as coverless, So you can eye some Bats goodness. Just stuns me when I hold it that it's the 2nd Batman.

Give me your 36!

Thanks everyone for the kind words! These goldies mean the world to me. Still need a complete 33, a low grade unrestored 36, and a possible upgrade to my 37 and I'll feel fully complete.

Great pick up!

Wow, another great book. I'm a fan of this cover as well. Nice displaying as well! (thumbs u Mr RedFury - you've filled my GA comic "eye candy" needs for today with all these incredible books! Thanks for posting!

Mary Nice 7.0 !

This looks really nice for a 3.5 +1 Maybe a 5.0 without the front cover chip!

1st Crime Cover!

That is one heckuva book, and in the kind of grade I love +1 WOW! An AA16 and a 4.5 blue label. Words can't express how incredible that book is!

Fellow comic lovers I would like to share my very personal and loved early Batman Tec collection. A collection I dreamed about as a young teen, and now many years later have been privileged to build as an adult. I've been asked a few times either on a thread or PM to post my early Tecs as with a name like "Bat-Man" as a handle I must be collecting a few early goodies. I've been waiting until the best time to post a group shot, and with my newly acquired Tec 39 today - I believe it is time. Without further rambling, my most beloved and treasured comics I own. The Tec 31 is a CGC 2.5 (hard to see grade in pic) and the 35 is a complete low grade as well.

Amazing pick ups! (thumbs u

Jaw dropping to say the least! Amazing Ben! I love the Tec 31 and MM9 next to eachother. What more can a collector really want!

The original art still exists? Wow. This is true. Metro displays the original art to Tec 28's cover in there store in NY. As far as I know they got it unbelievably cheap in the 90's. As no one cared for OA back then.

Congrats not just for the Pre-Robin! But for finding one period! Absolutely spectacular book!

I see...

Please drink Ir-responsibly!

for you, PAL. Terrific!
