The Commissioner

So I'm looking to expand my bronze age Batman issues and I was curious what some of your favorite/most popular issue were?

It's September! Let's see those books!

Forgot to make a post on August 1st... Let's see those August books!

When does "Late July" officially start?

I believe that's why they call it "Christmas in July"

I've been collecting for about 3 years now and Journey into Mystery is by far my favorite SA series.

Okay so my last picture looked like garbage, so I threw something together that looked more formal like @bc post

Not as impressive as @bc but it's a start!

Nice copy! Looks a little better than a 4.5. I personally think that TTA have better monster covers than most PHM leading up to issue #27.

Anyone have any group shots of their PHM issues? I'd love to see some posts of those in here!

Only have the one in my collection and it's a bit of a lower grade.

Didn't realize how many "Lumpy Orange Guys" I had in my collection

Can't remember if I had posted these here but figured I would share them anyway!

Posted mine here before but I'd be happy to show them off again!

Congrats on such a nice looking copy! I'm working on a Journey into Mystery run right now but I've accepted that I will probably never own this book

What is a registry set? Asking for a friend

Any idea why there is such an increase?

And for my 100th post, I thought I would share my favorite PHM cover from my collection in my favorite thread!

Thanks for the history lesson, @bc!

It's July! Let's see those issues!

Nevermind, just found this on their website: A message from Christopher Jackson, founder and CEO of PCKC, and the team at Planet Comicon Kansas City: It is with great regret that we must announce the cancellation of Planet Comicon Kansas City 2020. When the covid-19 crisis struck just days before our March 20-22 show, and the Mayor of Kansas City issued an executive order cancelling all events within the city, we quickly and efficiently rescheduled the show for August 14-16, 2020. A full five months away! At that point, we were very hopeful and optimistic that we would have a grip on the situation and would be able to come back strong in August with an amazing event. Unfortunately, matters have not progressed as we had hoped. The health and safety of those attending Planet Comicon Kansas City is paramount. After consultations with the convention center management, as well as many exhibitors, creators, guests and fans, we do not see a way to move forward that would allow an event that resembles Planet Comicon Kansas City to proceed while also protecting the health and safety of the thousands of people who attend PCKC. The uncertainties of how to responsibly hold a large event simply are too great. The cancellation of Planet Comicon Kansas City 2020 is one of the most difficult decisions we have had to make as show organizers. PCKC has been providing quality entertainment to our fans for more than two decades. PCKC provides a venue for fans to meet their favorite creators and media celebrities, to shop for hard to find collectibles, to enjoy the amazing cosplay and props and displays, to game, to attend panels and presentations and nighttime activities, and so much more. It provides a safe venue for geeks to be themselves and to meet other like-minded geeks. We have developed a community of fans who enjoy and support our show. That support is greatly appreciated. It pains us that we will not be able to provide those things in 2020. However, once it is safe for fans to gather again, we will be back stronger and better than ever. Thank you again for your support.

Any word on if this show is still happening in August?
