Wow indeed!

It has been on the opening page of Whiz comics since the 1940's.

 

SNAP!

He pops up in the DCU from time to time.

Wow!

 

Great Book Roy!!

 

Did you even read all the junque I wrote??

 

I thought the wall of text was just some kind of funky design.

Seriously, awesome book. Quite the key there!

Dear G.A.tor

 

I know this is the GA forum but do you have a forecast for HG silver keys? Anecdotaly I have noticed prices softening. The Avengers 4 9.6 being an example.

 

Thanks in advance

Supply + demand= price.

Since demand remains relatively stable for hg sa keys, the main variable becomes supply...that is not fixed. More and more hg copies either surface or are "created" so I see a continuing of price softening unless something leads to an increase in demand.

 

True or False and why?:

 

The world's population increases daily. Therefore, the population of comic collectors increases daily. Thus, demand for comics increases daily. The increased demand for comics > increase in the population of comics

false... There is no correlation between an increase in population and increase in the percentage of that population that enjoys comics

 

Wouldn't have to be an increase in percentage. Same percentage on an increased # = a bigger #

 

Example:

 

Pop: 5 billion

% collecting comics: .01%

# collecting Comics: 500,000

 

Pop: 6 billion

% collecting comics: .01%

# collecting Comics: 600,000

 

But how are you determining that the collecting percentage will be maintained at .01%?

Can't go wrong with those Claw covers!!

Probably the wrong forum to ask, but did Dynamite Comics do any Claw stories when they did all those GA reboots a couple years ago?

Cool page, Speedy!

Someday I will take a proper plunge into OA...

 

I think I missed these the first time around. Beautiful books. Are they from a pedigree collection?

 

Top one is a Cosmic Aero. The other two aren't peds as far as I know.

Wow, awesome books. I didn't know you were a Centaur guy. I've always been tempted to go there but I've got too many money pits to sidestep as is.

Yep.

I love them both as well, though it seems history has decided that 31 is more iconic.

Ok, I got one now.

 

This is me pretending it's no big deal.

 

The real me, however:

 

 

You lucky son of a

I figured I only needed one eye.

Ok, I got one now.

This is me pretending it's no big deal.

The real me, however:

I may be a tad conservative, true.

My bad...I read the listing wrong and thought it was just the cover...so yeah, I'll vote for 3kish as well.

Any guesses as to how much this one will go for...

Somewhere a little south of 2k, maybe?

#34 is the last WONDER WOMAN I ever bought.

 

mm

You definitely weren't alone. WW 40-80 are really tough in nice shape.

Back from CGC:

 

This cover is all kinds of awesome!

Awesome...it's like a Romita cover....with cats!

Poor guy. An experience like that is likely to sour a newbie collector.

His zealotry about . was strange to witness.

Thanks, I must have missed the follow-up. After all that trumpeting of the glories of ., he cashed out, eh?

bob, about trusting your knowledge of victorian era kinda stuff, what did you tell our former boardie those obidiah oldbooks you sold him were worth?

I don't think you can lay the blame at Bob's feet for what that former boardie did. He was a one-man market drag as he overhyped his purchases so much. He didn't do a great job of defending his position, alienating many comic collectors in the process. And then he sold too soon after he acquired them. Had he bought an Action 1 and behaved the way he did, he might have taken a loss on that, too!

Is this about the guy who did the "Superman vs. Obadiah" thread way back when?

I say we start a CGC petition so that they'll slab cuneiform tablets.

No Spectre???

his in the movie

 

Yup. Del Toro even mentions him in the video interview.

So exciting!

I'd be down for a Fourth World saga on celluloid, but I'm probably the only one.
