I always enjoyed Phantom Zone stories. Beautiful copy!

Nice book, Dan. It was great running into you and your wife on Saturday. Too bad I couldn't stay or else we could have roamed the aisles of Comic-Con together. Got good prices on the three books I bought and Bob Storms of Hi-Grade Comics threw in the new OSPG in the purchase. He's a cool guy and the GI Combat 92 is another great addition to my war collection. Gonna try to get a room at next year's show. Later

This great thread could use a bump. Today's purchase at Comic-Con International in San Diego: Superboy 86 containing the first appearance of Pete Ross and the 4th Legion of Superheroes.

Very slight miscut but I'm still very pleased with the book and the grade. I'm a big fan of D. Sprang and his covers.

nice copy (thumbs u You're darn tootin' it's nice. That a very sweet book.

Two BA Neal Adams' Batmans

Finally found a nice-looking mid-grade copy of this book:

One of my favorite non-superhero titles: Mystery in Space 17 from Dec. 1953/Jan. 1954 Another pre-code MIS: #20 from June/July 1954 And an early post-code MIS from Aug/Sept 1954. One of my favorite covers because it's free of dialogue.

That's a nice one! (thumbs u Fantastic book, Dale!! I just love that era and Batman Sci-Fi books. They're much underrated, yet they are well-loved by collectors both old and new. Congrats on the pickup.

Great Books, Hepcat. Used to love reading those back in the day.

Quite a comeback. I'd love to be able to read every one of those 96 pages!

It's low grade, but it'll do. One of my favorite Flash covers of all time. Every day at 6:30 in the morn while I'm on the treadmill at the local "Y", I always think of this cover. When it came to The Flash the great Infatino was the master. Nice pickup, my friend.

What a fantastic copy. The colors just pop. BTW, one of the very best covers of the SA. I've read the book many times and love the origin tale. Congrats!

Vey nice! I was the underbidder on the Heritage #1 in 8.0 You know, I got confused over which day that one was going to come up. I thought it went low. It would definitely have sold for more if I had been on the ball. Edited to add: I think it was the same copy that sold on HA and then was available for offers on that site. If so, it sold for less than I offered through the site. I think the whole book is cool; not just the PQ. Presents very well for a 1.0.

Recent purchase:

Agreed!! Congrats!

Great book, Jimbo!! Congrats on the winning bid. I'm really appreciating the artwork on many of DC war titles.

Here are a couple recently acquired war books and one not so recent unless you consider a purchase made in the mid-1990s recent: G.I. Combat 46 cover dated March 1957and the third DC issue of the iconic title: Here's the one I bought many moons ago. Wish how I could make the colors on the book match the colors of the scan. The colors of the book are really much sharper. Anyway, here they are:

A fairly recent purchase. It's not HG so those HG collectors, look away and close your eyes or throw tomatoes at it but it's a pretty LG copy and it didn't cost a zillion bucks. Adventure Comics 256 in CGC 4.0 with OW/W PQ containing the origin of Green Arrow as drawn by the King:

That's one heckava 3.0. I don't believe I've ever seen a CGC 3.0 look as beautiful as that copy. Never heard of the title but I wouldn't mind owning one.

How much do you think this copy will fetch, Jeff? I'm thinking 18-20 grand!

Beautiful book, Steve. But I'm totally flummoxed. You actually had a book slabbed. Wonderful copy!

Presents well for a 3.5, Dan. Vivid and deep colors. GLWTS.
