This Week in Your Bronze Age Collection!! 35 35

[jools&jim]

Here's a higher-grade fun one from 1979 that just came in -- Flash gets dosed with Angel Dust (!), wigs out & hallucinates, then goes completely bonkers on the JLA satellite, knocking it out of its orbit. Wild!  Ace action cover by (DC secret weapon) Richard Giordano, too -- Batman gets lit up like a Christmas tree; Wonder Woman takes a forearm shiver; and GL gets a super-speed boot upside his head.  Ouch!

I bought these from a dealer friend who purchased these from a hardcore 90s Deathlok speculator

Classic Byrne. Still fondly remember buying these right off the spinner rack and reading them over and over and over. Great stories and a great pickup!

Can never have too much Deathlok. His time will come!

Just re-read this classic Flash run in the Death of Iris West TPB. Bronze Age gold!

Lol I was looking at my 2 copies today

You can really tell between the blue and purple, with the print color

Got this back from CGC today.  Highest graded on the census.

I actually think it might look better than the US ASM 101.  In that comic the cover art is crowded and cropped too tight.  The art has been expanded slightly here.  I think it frames up better.

As a bonus Thor 165 is in here too.

Never even seen a copy of this book before, thanks for sharing.

This is the last of the Bats 52 pagers I needed in 9.0 or higher. Always loved the cover but kept putting off buying a copy. Love white pagers:

Always loved this Punisher cover and recently picked this one up. For Bronze Age, my target is CGC 9.4 with WP and newsstand. Picked this one up for one quarter of what a 9.8 would have cost and just as happy to have it in the collection!

One of my favorite BA covers! Congratulations.

A VERY generous gift from a very dear friend...

Went to a local show. Not much there that I was willing to pay for. Found some interesting $1 comics.
