I’ll take it

That Sgt Fury 1 was very tempting.

More price reductions! Let's sell some books. I got called to an out of town meeting for work somewhat unexpectedly. I will be listing more books this weekend.

and just proves @bounty_coderhas impeccable taste.

@Changer is a 2x on the GI Combats @Eddy707 is a on the Doom Patrol 99

A couple of quick price reductions made.

Doom Patrol #99 (1965), 1st Beast Boy. This one also has a sticker on the bag (no shop/company noted) that says 1.8. I am also good with this. Plenty of surface wear, small corner piece missing, spine roll but well attached staples, CF detached, edge wear. It's a surprisingly solid copy except for the detached CF. $70 **SOLD to @Eddy707**

G. I. Combat #120 (1966). mycomicshop sticker still on the bag that says 5.5, and I am good with that. Pretty solid book with no major issues. $10 **SOLD to @Changer**

G. I. Combat #103 (1964), greytone cover. This one is pretty sharp with just some spine wear, and back cover foxing. I think it's a 5.5. $28 **SOLD to @Changer**

Katy Keene #15 (1954). Spine completely split and detached, only 20 pages present (the equivalent of five wraps, but I am not certain I have five complete wraps or not), a couple of those wraps also split and detached. FREE to next purchaser that claims it.

Police Comics #97, 1949. Another rerun from the aforementioned previous thread. This one has some spine wear including a couple very small staple tears, an "M" written in pencil on cover, and a couple longer corner creases bottom right front, a bit of stacking roll, chip right edge. I think it's a 3.5 copy. Zero copies on the census. $49 NOW $40 **NOW $35**

Green Lantern #36, 1949, Alex Toth cover and some of the interior art as well. This was from a previous buy, and I ran it on a previous thread. I really can't make up my mind on this one. I want to keep it, but it is an oddball in my collection. Last issue in this run is #38, so this is third from the last, and tough to find. Solidly attached and complete copy. Some spine wear including a chip in the center, blunted corners all the way around, edge wear to the back. Great blue on this cover. I think it's a 4.5. Only 18 blue labels on the census. $490 Now $465 **NOW $435**

This beauty is sold via PM

I need to pause here. Still trying to decide what other GA books I might list. I have a real problem wanting to keep them all. But, I need to recoup some cash from recent purchases, so I will keep digging and listing. Shoot me an offer if you think I am off base on prices. Thanks for looking.

G.I. Combat #80 (1960) with a great Russ Heath greytone cover. Lower grade. Spine detached, and nearly split. Metropolis sticker still on the bag says 2.0, but I think 1.8 to be safe with the split. $25 **NOW $20**

G.I. Combat #19 (1954). Gorgeous copy, that has great color and gloss, and beautiful pages. This is interesting because the interiori covers are showing tanning. The cover is attached, but it's not as tight as it should be. Interior is complete and attached. If the staples were tight, I think it would flirt with 6.0 or better (held back by the tanning). It just doesn't feel tight enough to give it more than 5.0, but it's pretty. Only five on the census. $85 NOW $70 NOW $60 **NOW $50**

Tony Trent #3 (1948). Only two on the census, though looks to be more common than that would indicate. Low grade copy here. Lower spine split of 1.5-2", completely detached cover, some wear to the edges of the last page. 1.8ish. Cool looking character called "The Face". $18

The Bouncer nn (considered to be #10? 1944) Fox Features. I'll be honest with you, I have no clue what's going on with this cover. "You're Favorite Pin-up"??? He's wearing a dress??? Interesting. A couple small stains front cover in and near the box, CF detached from the single staple, some spine roll and this caused the top edge of the back cover to be a bit high which caused some extra wear over the years. 3.0 - 3.5 range to me. Still, it's complete, and less than common? I can't find one on eBay, six on the census, no GPA sales since 2018. I guess I will throw a dart... $350 So, I threw out a big number and no takers I really was throwing a dart, albeit a high one. Let’s try $280 instead NOW $250 **NOW $210**

Joe Palooka Comics #2 (1946), Harvey Comics. Big tear across the cover about 4" horizontally in the middle. Also a corresponding tear on the first page that goes all the way across. Complete and attached (though CF is detached at the top staple). Nice lifeguard cover. 1.5 because of the tears, maybe...looks nicer. $18 **NOW $15**

Strange Adventures #3 (1950). I knew this was in the collection, and I was desperately hoping it was going to be an upgrade for my 3.5 copy, but sadly it was not. This one has a completely detached cover. Some tearing to the cover near the staples. But, the cover is in pretty decent shape besides that (no splitting), and the interior is complete and attached. Competes with 6 and 23 for the best cover in the early run, IMO (until you get to #50 ). I think this is a 2.0 copy. $45 **SOLD to @DocHoppus182**

I will get my other reprint out of the way now. Spy Smasher #1, reprint from the 70s. Indicia says the publication is named "Flashback". This one is pretty high grade with a bit of color transfer/rubbing to the front (at least I think that is actual transfer and wasn't made to look like that). Pencil on the back cover. $10

Suspense Comics #3, replica. good looking book here. Nice cover gloss and detail. It's squarebound. The back cover is not as good a copy as the front. Put this on your wall at shows to draw some extra attention. $75 **SOLD via PM**
