Alas, in December 1939 there were a lot of folks whose Cosmic Clocks were about to hit midnight. 

Yikes, you got that right.

I was curious about this.   I’d guess the variants?  Perhaps the the sales #’s residuals are different??

thanks

I just read this from page 1 of this thread (2003).  If the poster though higher graded GA books were getting expensive back in 2003, I would be curious what they thought of prices today.

I wonder how much they paid for that action.  $300?

Ill take strange tales 146

Ill take flash 174.

47-57 of sub mariner Ill take

Ill take all the strange tales from 151-167.

Better scans:

Baker cover?

If any of the books above were sold, edit their post to note it.  

Otherwise it can appear as if you’re trying to sell sold items.  

#17?

both nice books with staple pops

Rick, I know you’re out of the collecting side, but... please tell me,  did these survive, and if so, will you at least keep one of them?

I’m looking to buy a quality Christmas gift and since I’m not experienced in animation OA, I’d rather pay extra from a reputable dealer than less on ebay.  Reputable Japanese dealers with fast shipping would be fine too.  I found several USA based animation art dealers but none dealing in Japanese anime.

Thanks for any help!

ASM1 is a great book and while AF15 will always be THE KEY spidey book ASM1 is certainly next in line and a top 10 Marvel Silver Age book.

What I wonder is whether/how much more ASM1 would be worth if it contained the First Spider-Man - i.e., I think if Spidey appeared in ASM1 first (and AF15 did not exist) then ASM1 would be more expensive than AF15 currently is - or to put it another way, I wonder how much more AF15 would be worth if it was also the start of Spider-Man's flagship title ....... obviously we will never know what the delta would be, but I think it would not be insignificant.

Interesting idea, it makes me wonder what asm#2 would be worth if asm1 was the 1st app.  

Would asm#2 (the 2nd app of SM in this scenerio) be worth as much as ASM#1?  I highly doubt it.  

The majority of ASM#1 is from the #1 and the debut the solo hero title, waaaaaay less from 2nd appearance, or the “out of reach so I’ll settle” theory.  I can’t think of any 2nd app books that command 1/2+ the value of a 1st appearance besides #1s.  (Superman #1/batman #1/wonder woman #1)

Don’t put off taking care of it.  Some stuff has to happen within a limited time for the most help.  Not sure on this situation.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but surprisingly, ASM#1 was valued more than AF15 for a period of time.

The Af15 and Asm1 situation reminds me of The Wonder Woman keys:

All Star #8 -her first appearance.  Worth the most.

Sensation Comics #1 her second appearance and first cover appearance. Considered the scarcest of the three and possibly undervalued.

Wonder Woman #1  Her 10th appearance, first solo book, it’s value situationally competes with Sensation #1. 

The debut titles Amazing Spider-Man, Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and even Iron Man just command appeal!

I always thought the 1968 solo starts of Captain America, Doctor Strange, and Hulk would be valued more (and just feel/look cooler) if they were proper #1s.

This weekend was crazy...bumping one of my favorite threads because I finally completed a long time collecting goal of mine. Captain America Comics #1 blue label complete 

Through perseverance, a boardie, lot's of messages back and forth, selling some pc books, and of course lot's of money...my dream has come true 

Thank you Riddler 

Grats!!!!  What a great feeling!!

Thanks everyone, I forgot all about the brave and the bold stuff.

I’m totally into detective or batman, makes no dif to me.  I just like the color/feel of the old paper, not reprints.

I was surprised Adams only did 17 interiors and they don’t even seem to be full issue length.  I guess for such a legendary run/artist character combo I expected more.  More of a cover guy I guess.  I wish he did more at marvel back in the day.

At first glance Mid grade run looks like...  1k for 17 issues.  

Batman $500-800

Tec $250-$400 ish

Pretty popular run.

I've been thinking about putting together runs of Neal's interior work for the two titles in raw reader/mid grade, and was curious on what approximate costs should be.

I know there's some pretty high dollar books in there, but any info would be great.   Which run is better?  Which is cheaper?   Is it worth it?

Thanks!
