Buck Biggins Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Saw this on the bay. Not my book but my favorite Wonder Woman cover. This is the nicest copy I have seen for sale in 3 years! Someone should pick it up.... This book is my grail and I'm soo happy to have the highest graded which is a 6.0 You just never see this book. Thought I let my fellow WW fans know about it. WOW $225 was the end price! Tough book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boba Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 It is a great cover, but I do agree it looked a little tan and crinkled. Better luck, and perhaps a better copy, next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually already have 2 lower grade copies...one from skypinkblu with a little glitter addition and one that is just slightly worse than this one, so, this would have actually been an upgrade..

Boba Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 So did Santa bring any new WW's, All Star's or Sensation's this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.A.tor Posted January 2, 2008 Author Share Posted January 2, 2008 So did Santa bring any new WW's, All Star's or Sensation's this year? none for me....with WW now complete, and Sensations tough as nails to complete (all known inventory by me, I have scanned), so might be slow going for a little while gator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 That may be the case. Anyway, I have a spare #34 CGC 5.5 (from a recent upgrade) if anyone is looking for one, PM me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecollectron Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Hi everyone, I have a question that I'm sure someone here can answer. I just received a Wonder Woman #5 that appears complete but the page count is off. There are 16 pages to the left of the staple, but only 12 to the right. Looking at it really closely, I can see four places where there is a page trimmed close to the spine, as if something was cut out. The stories all appear to be complete, so my question is: was the book printed this way to save paper during the war or is it really missing four pages? If anyone has a raw copy and would not mind taking a look, I would really appreciate it. The pages in question are: 1.) The end of the third WW story "Mars Invades The Moon". There appears to be a page missing between WW page 14 and Susan B Anthony page 1. 2.) Between the two text story pages of "Uncle Bud Saves the Day." 3.) 4th WW story "The Return of Dr. Psycho" between pages 4 and 5. 4.) 4th WW story between pages 10 and 11. I don't want to call the seller on it until I can get some kind of confirmation. Thanks in advance. Feel free to PM me on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll check my copy after I finish on Ebay...but that's how several of the issues were made, it's really strange, they added a fold on the left side of the staple and cut out a page on the right, you will see that it looks like a page was sliced out on some. 28 pages is probably right, but I can do page counts on each story, I know mine are complete. DC did that again in 1952 on a few books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, drives me nuts too, because the friend who taught me the most about old books is a math professor and the FIRST thing he taught me to do, is to count the pages... I'll check anyway, but if that is what you are seeing, it's probably the reason...why they repeated it, in 1952, is beyond me.. Sharon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buck Biggins Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 The Sensation Comics run from 80-106 in mid to high grade has been my collecting focus the last few years. Since I haven't found anything to buy in the last 6 months I thought it be time to do a cool group shot of my progress. I tell you what, these issues have are challenge to find in grade and its been fun collecting them. I'm hoping the 83 gets a 6.0 and the 102 gets a 4.5. The 105 is a sweet 7.0 bright white pager but suffers from overhang.I also collect earlier issues but they have to be affordable. BTW, that is no stain on the carpet by the 105.
