    odin my father, according to craig shutt of CBG ask mr. silverage the end of the B.A. was legends of the dark knight. anybody on this board that disagrees with Giant Size X-Men # 1 being the start of the B.A. please start you arguements now, Conan # 1 was not the start of the B.A., and yes Tomb of Dracula is not part of the B.A. Action # 1 started the super hoero age, Showcase # 4 started the revitaliztion of super-heros, and Giant Size X-Men started intrest in super-heros again between Marvel and DC. Yes, there was gaps inbetween the ages, that's why Conan # 1 is not the start of the B.A. As mentioned in CBG 1497 via Craig Schutt, 1951-1956 (the Atomic Age?), second gap (1970-1975 Monster Age?) GL/GA 76 was a great issue, but has no catalyst to the B.A.

    the Bronze Age officially ended with the release of Dazzler # 1 the first comic book to ever be sold as direct market. i might also add as inbetween S.A. and B.A. debate about Conan being the start of the B.A., what about MOKF(master of kung fu), that came out in 1973-74 only to hop on the martial arts bandwagon, so that makes Conan a certifiable "NO" as the start of the B.A. read the article in CBG 1497, "Conan was a cool series, but it was barely a catalyst for other sword and sorcery titles, much less for super-heros to create a new age."-ask mr. silver age (craig shutt) you can email him at cshutt@earthlink.net

    MikeS, good catch on the ask Mr. Silver Age on the CBG 1497 article, i couldn't flip through my CBG mags fast enough. As mentioned in the artilce it reads "Giant Size X-Men # 1 began the Bronze Age, serving as a catalyst for more super-hero comics from Marvel and DC both."

    i will buy midgrade's if they're keys (e.g. ASM 1, FF 1, Hulk 1, etc.) that are CGC graded at a really good price, if not they have to be below book value for me to buy an ungraded midgrade issue.

    IMHO...i would have to say Giant-Size X-Men # 1, after that book was released Spectacular Spider-Man # 1 followed. comic books were once again selling strong after the horror comic expierence.
