Great cover. I've never seen this one before.

I know this would be a huge amount of ground to cover but I would love to see this happen, already have Surter present and who else is going to counter him? Story already has the Hela sublot also.

what a difference. never knew my first copy was so faded. no cover on GCD at the time

picked this up a few days ago, first time I'd seen that cover

I pulled this from GCD. Is this Berk's former copy or the 3rd copy? or maybe a 4th? Just wondering. Congrats on bagging a really tough book.

With all your resources and connections I've seen you and others say you can and have completed runs of GA series within a fairly short time frame (less than 5 years), and obviously 1930s books are hard to find in any condition sometimes, and then you have these Centaurs which had distribution problems to make them even tougher. Something I've wondered though, have you ever come across one of these super tough books in the wild, which you were able to scoop up ridiculously cheap? Or are you always surrounded by other collectors/dealers that price books like these to you accordingly?

Always liked this one

I know I do, every day. I know I can go to GCD and just look at them all at once, but most of these are books I do not know when I see them, so I like to get surprised by a new one every morning. Knowing these are all in one collection makes it a little different.

Ha I was thinking that as well. If so what a family. Is that Granny Arrow throwing flaming torches at grandson because he broke curfew?

Glad you like them. The first issue of the series (#3) is actually John Buscema!! Shocked when I first saw that.

Charlton was based in Derby, Connecticut and had to endure a couple of floods during the later part of 1955. Supposedly alot of comics in the factory were destroyed. I know I have had alot of trouble finding some titles dated late 1955-early 1957.

They should have added that he WILL shoot first in the warning.

First time I've noticed this, but did Eisner sign his work like this often?

First Batman but I see a Clark Kent hairdo.

Yoda in Episode 8. Seems so.

The add even says rugged vinyl.

I've been sniffing for a hint of Flash #5 since I expanded into GA back around 2k, no luck. Several other collectors I know say they have never seen one in over 40 years of looking. I think the consensus from the GCD guys is that it was planned as a mail-out only issue to subscribers like Stuntman #3 was, but was never produced. No concrete evidence has ever surfaced. I'm still looking though of course.

According to the Keltner Index 60 pages is the correct page count. Issues 11-14 were all only 60 pages.

All are fairly scarce in my experience. I lucked out I think and picked up a #1 and #4 several years ago from the same ebay seller, then a #2 about a year after that. Finally found a decent #3 last year or so.
