  1. The PQ is less than ideal though. the cover exhibits no characteristics of a book with light tan pages (if that makes any sense) such as
  2. Makes my 23 worth $15K Way too high for the 24. The #24 on c-link dropped in price a couple of thou Needs to be down more. You going for it. No. If I had it, that money would go toward an upgrade to my #22. Besides, it'd be more at home in a higher-grade set

  4. Thanks! I was pretty thrilled . . . although truth be told, I was looking for a .5 bump in grade But who can complain about a PQ bump.
  5. The PQ is less than ideal though. It is an old label book, though, so there might be hope for a PQ bump. I just found out today that the old label SC #22 with Cream pages I resubbed is now a CR/OW. In any case, I would expect prices on #23 and #24 to pull back after the movie hype dies......... Know what you mean. I resubbed my CR/OW SC #22 and it came back an OW/W

  8. . . . for the Justice League fanatics (just left message in the Flash collectors threads) Did anyone catch the The Big Bang Theory final show of the season, episode called The Justice League Recombination? I wonder if this exposure in prime-time television will result in new fans for the Justice League franchise? http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/ActionFigureNews/news/?a=26427
  9. For all you Flash fanatics. Did anyone catch the The Big Bang Theory last night. It was the final show of the season, the episode was called The Justice League Recombination? There was a neat sequence with Sheldon as the Flash, running at super-speed to the Grand Canyon and back to the apartment he shares with Leonard. Very cool.
  10. I am jealous (not sick). Seriously, congrads
  11. I think I just became a pedigree Hi Jay ditto on the innocuous copy
  12. which one never mind, I see it. I love this line: "Scans are LARGER than issue itself, defects are enlarged, therefore this issue WILL look much sharper in person" I guess you send a note telling CGC not to look too closely at the defects when they grade it. Too much
  13. Ok. But 16 just didn't seem like a lot of HG copies graded to me.
  14. (thumbs u I happened to be looking to see if there were any in the for sale section. There aren't. An 3.5 is coming up to auction.
  15. For a DC book from 1956, let alone THE key, that`s a lot! Really Wonder when this book sold? It looks pretty decent. Wonder how it would fare at CGC? http://www.comiclink.com/itemdetail.asp?back=%2Fsearch_adv.asp%3Fall%3Dy%26TITLE%3Dshowcase%26TITLEOPT%3DALL%26ISSUE%3D%26Condition%3D%26ConditionTo%3D%26CensusRank%3D%26SearchPageQuality%3D%26Pedigree%3D%26PRICEF%3D%26PRICET%3D%26DESCRIPTION%3D%26DESCRIPTIONOPT%3DALL%26SearchRemarks%3D%26SearchCGC%3D%26EXCLUDE%3D%26CATEGORIES%3D-1%26WCATEGORIES%3D-1%26SORT%3DCATEG%26_where_forsale%3Dy%26_where_auctions%3Dy%26x%3D47%26y%3D4%26where_forsale%3Dy&id=788029 Date stamped, no less
  16. I think Mac Man hit on something, that fans may respond to the Sci-Fi aspect of it. If you look at it, I think that's the difference between SA DC & Marvel. DC comics and especially the covers have more of a "science fiction" angle to many of them (Flash, Green Lantern, Atom even the justice league - fogedebout Mystery in Space, Strange Adventures, Tales of the Unexpected, etc., etc.) while Marvel tended to deal with more social issues. Maybe why the older kids seemed to flocked to Marvel when I was a kid, with Johnny Storm goin' to college and Peter Parker's chick problems. They're both great for different reasons. Now we return to the regularly scheduled program
  17. Yeah. Nobody should really bother buying it
  18. - maybe you missed the thread in comics general pizzing all over the trailer I liked it. Granted, some might say we are a bit biased But the very fact that they finally have the movie technology to even attempt doing a film about one of our favorite comic characters, has got to be worth seeing. I can't wait to see Flash on film, as was prophesized on the cover of Showcase #4.
  19. A roof is a pretty good reason. Watch, the next one will be better
  20. There's always another. . . Isn't there
  21. the race is on ! buy all your Showcase 4s before the movie hype begins ?!@ Easy money for everyone keep buying Flash movie in 2014 !@ Seriously it was 1 bidder for 1 book that sold for more then it should have. 2 weeks prior in an auction format a 7.5 sold for 12.6K. They're not on fire, by any means, and no guarantee they will be anytime soon, I'm just saying . . . that these things are unpredictable and cyclical. I mean who called the craze over Showcase #22? They are lucky people now. Sounds like you know the seller showcase22gr1959?
