Horray for Double Covers!

Superhero vs. Classic GGA: Batman Shadowy 8.5 vs. 9.4: Beetle CR/OW vs. W: Beetle MH vs. Nada: Beetle Winner: Ugh, I guess Blue Beetle

I am guessing there will be some amazing OA popping up from time, similar to the AF 15 art that was recently donated.

Yeah, that is the issue I was referring to. WWII + Bondage + Going to far (burning arm) If only it had little bunny rabbit cartoon characters in the background

If we could add in a "going too far" element for some of the early '50s horror comics, that would be good too

Bondage + WWII + Going too far (facing melting) = Marvel Mystery Comics #46 Another option would be the Human Torch arm melting punch cover

Action 1's cover is too atypical of other superhero and war comics of the GA, so it definately does NOT get my vote. I think almost ANY issue of All Winners is a good example with multiple superheroes battling the Axis with a little Bucky bondage thrown in for good measure.

I can't stand that cover. Terrible in every way. What!?! You don't like that crappy banner covering over the gunfighters guns?

Bob! You're cruising for a bruising with that reckless kind of talk I agree with Bob! You two are both obviously delusional In a way, I have to agree with Ciorac on this one. A couple of years ago Vince Z. from Metropolis gave his market report in the OPG. He mentioned that Metro had sold quite a few copies that year...something like 16 copies. He said that the high number of sales they had was not because the book was common, but because he really "believes" in the book, so gets his hands on a copy when ever he can. My point is, I agree with Vince...I "believe' in Batman #1, and view it as a huge Key of the Golden Age, and love every little bit of pulp in its 1940 body He acquired and sold 16 copies of Batman #1, but how many copies of Tec #27 during the same time?

Tec 27...I could always find a Batman #1 another time (though probably graded lower) but Tec 27s seem to be a lot tougher to find for sale.

Cap 1 over Showcase 4 - not even close FC 386 over Crime Does Not Pay - Classic Scrooge over a crime book that I don't really know anything about

Action 1...more important and rarer Action 1 is OW/W, while Tec 27 is only OW

Sweet collection

For $300K I wouldn't take either...but if I had to take one I would take Flash #1.

Adventure 40 over Tec 27: while I would much rather own a Tec 27, I don't want a ratty trimmed copy

Tec 1 over TOS 39: much rarer Cap 1 over Tec 1: much nicer to look at; 1st Cap! More Fun 52 over Marvel Comics 1: sweet looking issue All-American 16 over Marvel Mystery 2: don't really care for MMC 2

Wow! That Black Cat and Tomb of Terror are sweet!

Nice Actions! Especially the #18!

Nice comics everyone. I see you got a Secrets of Sinister House #20 double cover also...gijoed didn't bid against me for mine so I assume he has one also.

Sensation #1, though I guess I will go against the flow and say I like the Wonder Woman #1 cover better.

Amazing Comics #1 over Atomic #1 (still don't care who owned a comic at some point) Captain America #1 over Batman #1 (1st Cap > 1st Joker, but a tough one)

Smash Comics #17 ... it has Bozo the Robot.

What beats Tec 31? Tec 27, Batman 1, AA 16, CA 1, Marvel 1, Adv 40 For the same price

Detective #2 over Double Action #2: no resto, greater appeal, Flessel cover Detective #35 over Detective #2: Batman wins Detective #31 over Detective #35: Earlier Batman wins So what trumps #31?
