Which Neal Adams' books are a better investment - DC or Marvel?

[Rip]

Bats 222

I have 2 VF/NM's now and a strong VF that has been popped out of its CGC tomb.

It looks much higher but it has a light crease non color breaking crease that knocks it down.

Someday I'll get that 9.4

Although Avengers 93 is tough find in high grade, the body of the Adams Marvel work isn't as well known or as sought after as the Batman and other DC work.

 

Well, let's see how high they go in this Showcase New England auction:

BTW, is it just me or do the books look overgraded?

[Aman619]

yeah...you can see bent corners on many scans....

Bad job grading this time...

At least .5 to 1.0 off.

I hope people don't bid up that FF 12 because it's not a VG+ but a VG- and I'm looking for one in that grade.

[Foolkiller]

of course they're over graded... it's raw and it's showcase new england. the only kinds of raw grades they give out are the ones that aren't accurate.

Here's my personal favorite (I just wish I had bought more than 10 when I was a kid)...

HOW DID THE JOKER GET SO BIG!?!?

It's Apache Chief Joker....a nefarious breeding of the crown prince of crime and the native american colossus.

My two favorites. Neal Adams covered books sold something like 25%-35% higher than non-Adams books. And who said kids have no taste.

[12c_Comic]

I'am not a expert but is this a N.Adams Covers......

 

[kimik]

Yes. Nice book!
