I took a look through my collection this weekend. Some of these came from my LCS back when the first prints flew off the shelves. The others came from the Toys R Us sets.

Congrats! That is a nice set of books for sure!

I have not found one . I do not believe they did, but that doesn't mean one will not turn up. 

For sure!

Thank you for the info sir.

V.

Ok, thought so.

Love the Bat Symbol but do you know if they actually made one with “DCU” logo?

V.

It think it may have “Bat” symbol.

I don’t think the “Animated Series” one is, is it?

Hey Buddy

Have you opened one of these packs before?

V.

 One thing I have definitely noticed now after the last two conventions that I have attended is that the dealers are no longer over looking DCU variants. Several had either a separate box of DCU variants or had them in with their “premium” variants. 
  I noticed this starting to happen back in 2019. With one dealer in particular I had chosen a few books from a newly acquired collection to buy. He thumbed through them and separated the DCU variants and made mention to me that they would cost more since they were the DCU Prints, but he had no idea of the value either way.

 I think the days of finding these in the $1-$2 book bins is coming to a close.

 Now it seems everyone has caught on, good or bad…

Just curious and kinda testing the waters, but would anyone be interested in my MOS 2nd print CGC 9.4?

A grail book popped up on eBay and I might be interested in letting this go.

I was thinking in the $400 range unless I am way off base.

Also depends on how out of hand this grails goes for as I may not be able to swing it financially regardless and would just keep the MOS then.

 

 

I, too think that is a little high for a 9.4 based on what I’ve seen. You may get that but probably will have to wait for the right buyer to come along in a very “niche” market.

Good luck on the grail. Let us know how it goes!

I found this third printing on eBay. It arrived today and looks like a serious contender!

  Reveal hidden contents

It does some small but pressable defects. This one is going in the submission pile. 

Good Luck Brandon!

I know we’ll be the 2nd to know how it goes:)!

@Vfactor1

Thank you so much for the books and the Chick Fil A gift card! I know where I will be having lunch on Monday! 

The ASM 55 web head book is cool and it’s always nice to revisit the Excalibur and X-factor of the late 80s ! 

I hope you and your family have great holidays and a very safe and healthy New Year! 

 

Glad you like them. Was definitely stuff out of my normal wheelhouse. Was fun to look for stuff I knew very little about and learned stuff along the way!

Here is a rare sight.  All of the known DC Universe variants of Superman (1987 series) in one place, thanks to @archivist and @onlyweaknesskryptonite.  The hard to find ones are Superman 77, 96, 113 and 117.  My good friend @archivist found the Superman 113 in Germany (he lives there), which is example of the network that is sometimes needed to compile complete collections of rare variants.  Now I have all known DCU variants in the titles of Batman, Detective, Adv of Superman, Superman, Action, Justice League and Superman Man of Steel except for Superman MOS 39.  If anyone can find that one for me, I would gladly pay a bounty of $200 to get it.

p.s.  I hate that 74 and 77 are out of order in my photo, but I'm not pulling that monkey fighter 77 back out of the fire safe to make the correction...lol

p.p.s.   Two Superman 104's are shown above (one regular DCU UPC and the other one with stickered DCU UPC)

Wow, simply amazing my friend! Very proud of you!

V.

Thank you for sharing the experience,
