When you get the credit memo in the mail, post it in "this week in your collection." I still have some from the 80's.

I'm not being cheap. A small stack of WF comics (non keys, not exceptional grade) just can't equal a barn full of parts. You would think he would take the cash and go focus on what he finds to be fun, but people can be strange

Torture me...I've been trying to get a non-collector in my area to part with a stack of WF from that very era (plus a few either side) for over a year now....he found them while cleaning out his parents' house, but he's a car guy and wants to parse the antique car parts that he found first...

Gone too. I really wanted page 4, but I figured what the heck, make the shipping worth it. I do like the table scene across the top of 5.

Sorry, I was unclear. This is all that was available. The dealer had sold the other half of the story already.

Thx! Not sure about sales thread...other half of story is already out there (I inquired about the whole thing, but only these three ages were to be had). I will keep page 4 for sure, not sure about the other two. I have wall space for them. But they will get added to my pile of OA. Framing art, like slabbing, is often something I put off in favor of buying books.

That helps, thanks! But while 121 may be the biggest key book among SA Bats villain intro keys, if the question is who is the biggest Bats villain introduced in the SA, Poison Ivy jumps to mind for me.

I also wonder the point of this particular comparison.

And 5 of these.

Thank you to Patriot6, Cliff R., and OdinsSecrets for asking if I had any more Archies to offer at the beginning of my last sales thread a couple weeks ago. As a result, I went digging and pulled an Everything's Archie #113 from my boxes. When I ran some searches to figure out what to ask for it, I came across half the OA from Stan Goldberg's "Archie the Barbarian" story from that issue. Love the version of Cheryl Blossom in this one!

Some of my favorite reading when these came out -- I read 107 and 109 (among others) over and over and over.

On the other end of the size spectrum, I traded for this today. Not the easiest Matt Baker cover to find.

So can anyone around here pop a copy of 128 into this thread?

Let's make that $65 shipped.

I think it's two different questions. In terms of value, a high grade bats 121 would probably rack up a higher number in an auction vs a comparable (and likely more common) copy of ASM 14. In terms of historical significance, ASM 14 hands down. Green Goblin is Spidey's arch villain, Mr Freeze (as a character) barely matters. Don't drop the bricks on me over that one -- I didn't say the concept barely matters; Captain Cold rocks as a villain. But Mr Freeze has not been significant in th Batman pantheon of villains in a long time. And he was never top dog.

Absolutely gorgeous copies! Seeing these makes me want reader copies because, growing up with bronze and early copper, I always thought the Spidey villain Hydroman was a neat concept. I'd love to read these to see how directly he was based on this hero. (And clearly Man o' Metal looks like Stan recycled him into the Molten Man in the silver age.) Thank you for sharing them!

Many do, especially first printings, which can be hard to tell. I'm far from an expert on UG; I picked up about 80 as a subset of a large collection I swallowed. I bought a Fogel's Underground Comix Guide; it was well worth the money! (About $40) Hope this helps.
