  1. I think Europe would explain no Shocker etc. My Spidey- Sense tells me that Mysterio is making himself look like the hero and he’s a villain.
  2. $6k a point ?? What was it 5 years ago ? Realize it could just be the auction house but maybe not
  3. So bad it’s good. I found myself hating and looking forward to the sequel at the same time. Hardy and venom make it
  4. Horrible movie. It should sleep with the fishes
  5. Meh. I’m sure it’s solid though. Trailer didn’t get me psyched. Like the twist in aunt May , flash , and mj. Why no spider sense with Fury’s arrival ? Mysterious. Excellent !
  6. Berkakicious ! I remember years ago Metro had a coverless misding the first wrap, raw, for 4K 😳
  7. Just gorgeous !!! It’s now slabbed but here it is in its raw form ( I did read it before submitting it to its Tomb ). You were right Woo—it’s grown on me 👏 https://comics.ha.com/itm/golden-age-1938-1955-/superhero/detective-comics-27-dc-1939-condition-coverless-and-missing-centerfold/a/7169-91027.s
  8. That is awesome. Almost worth a trip to Cleveland. Almost.
  9. Had no idea Bats & Robin we’re in the Star Soangled title
  10. I like it better than Cap 1 also but I think the market has spoken for the near future. Too much separation now. That being said, super important and cool issue and deserves to be in the conversation of the top 3 imo.
  11. Personally. I don’t feel that is a unreasonable. The 0.5’s, 1.0’s of the world can command a premium because of the limited possibilities to own own one in conjunction with limited funds to those higher grades.
  12. Would love to keep this thread moving with the uncovering of more concrete data. I myself am speculating at the 200-350 range at this point. Maybe surviving copies are a hint ? Do estimated surviving copies equal est. surviving copies of Action 1 ? I’ve heard both yes and speculation of 100 more
  13. Tried Google many a times. That article never came up
  14. With Action selling so well and Supes 1 just around the corner -the Action comic that January might have been the majority holder of that 709k
  15. But before this I thought it was going to take the worlds greatest detective to get close
  16. Thx Showcase for the guesstimate and the info about the newsstand comparison to Supes 1. I always found it interesting that we could find a reference to action 1 at 202,000 ( the trial with Fawcett ) , MC 1 at 880,000 ( both printings ). Supes 1 at 900,000 ( 3 printings ) and Cap 1 at a 1 M print run but not Tec 27. Wouldn’t be surprised if it was at the lower end of your guesstimate or even closer to Action 1s print run with guesstimates of survival and the article referenced above. Certainly a lot less outside of Action 1 than any mentioned above.
  17. And it takes a guy with only 13 posts...... Thank you Turnado for what appears to be an excellent reference piece and welcome to the Boards !!!!!
  18. Borock didn’t know either. Maybe the Librarian at DC in Burbank can help.....
  19. I’ve been asking for months under an array of different topics but no one seems to know. #SHOCKED! What was the original print run of Detective Comics #27 ?? C’mon GA experts ! Help a Gold brother out !!
