This one would definitely be a top five contender for sure.

Its funny, when I compare Marvel and DC Books from this same era, it's like looking at books from two different Earths...Earth-1 and Earth-What?!

DC was the powerhouse, with three decades of solid publishing to back it up, but if I was ten years old in 1965 I'm pretty sure Marvel would have been getting my 12 cents.

Looking back as an aging collector, there's a certain charm and sense of history that I get from the DC books as they progress from decade to decade that makes me happy as a run collecter.  Perhaps there's an essay in here somewhere for another day...

Yeah i have to admit that as bad as that cover is ... now i am wondering how it all happened ( Jimmy marrying a gorilla) and how it worked out ?? so even though it is hokey there was some decent allure due to cover to buy this issue back then !!

And we all know DC LOVED gorilla covers !! i heard they were always some of their top sellers!!

With covers like this how did DC even compete with Marvel back then??

DC funny 

great DOOM covers !!

This must have been extremely alluring back in the day... because it still is in this day !

Once again some great additions ...... !!!!!!!   LIKE !!!!

one of my favorite war comics covers is my avatar..... OAAW #2

Nice ! there is a boardie who loves high grade DC checkerboards, ! he must already have this issue

Its so hard to follow the old adage of buying the keys first because they increase in value quicker and  sometimes cost so much more two years down the road than today .................

Avengers #16 should be designated a "classic cover" !!

Two nice pick-ups, way to go !

Excellent story..... hope you can sell them smoothly

Me too

The GI Combat wash tone run of covers is one of the greatest stretch of consecutive covers by any series!

JLA's are still an affordable series in today's market IMO

this is a nice journal ti have enjoyed following your comic quest

Sweet pick ups ! that DD 5 (first Matador) looks more like an 8.0 ! i love that story and artwork, early DD's are awesome and relatively affordable ! the DD 14 is nice too

Both GL's are really good looking mid grade books

are you putting them in mylar's ?

Excellent mid-life sports car analogy ........

and that #54 presents real well !

I love G.I. Combat ! your duplicates are better than my keeper copies, someday i may go for the 1-100 run ! it's so tempting but i don't even want to start it yet,

i applaud you for you registry set !

i really like the 1-44 issues run (not sure if too many other people do though)

I think issue #1 might be one of the most violent covers ever depicted

i love the grey tone issues and #76 (man vs tank cover i think its #76) is my second favorite war cover of all time!! 

my all time favorite war cover is my avatar

War comics are and underappreciated genre, are still affordable and readily available !!

SWEEEEET !!

nice pick ups !

Looks like you have a decent LCBS  (local comic book store??)
