Bravo on your progress so far! I'll print out your list and take it with me as I make my rounds this weekend.

I would be so grateful if you would.

 

Nine of these last forty will be expensive (well, and I mean WELL, over a thousand dollars each, and then there's Detective 27 of course)

 

Eleven more should be between three hundred and a thousand each.

 

The other twenty should all be well under a hundred bucks each, but they're the most frustrating ones - cheap but unfindable. PLEASE find me a Buzzy 70. I would hate it to be the last one.

THE 40 DC COMICS I NEED TO COMPLETE THE FULL SET

 

 

Out of all the brilliance and combined knowledge on here, has anybody any idea how to find any of the last forty please ?

[uclapeterg]

Good luck Ian!!

[Ian_Levine]

Good luck Ian!!

 

Thankyou.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Timely has just found me two more. Plus Rich Muchin found my last Comic Cavalcade.

If Timely's lead pans out, it'll be down to 37

Do you have the free Cartoon Network comic with Cow & Chicken that DC put out? It was printed in 1998, but it just reprinted some stuff from 1997. It was put out by DC, though. I thought you were getting just the superhero DC stuff, but from your list, it looks like you're getting them all.

Yes indeed, I've had that for a long time.

I'm chasing up every obscure giveaway and preview that I can find, and I need any pointers from anyone about anything I might have missed.

[tilleycs]

Gotcha, just wanted to make sure. I have it (for some reason) and would gladly offer it up if you needed it. Good luck, bro!

[sterlingcomics]

Ian,

 

I've marked this as a fav thread. Please keep us updated on this thread. I plan on attending some Cons this year and I'd be happy to look for these for you. I'll PM you when I get closer to con time.

Misery !!!!!!!!!

 

The link that Timely sent to me turned out to be six years old.

They're now called Lake Side Comics, and I'd already e-mailed a list to them ages ago.

Back to 39.

Oh dear !!!!!!!

'39 is a lucky number for Golden-Age DC collectors!

Not for me. I want it to shrink rapidly.

I printed out the list and I will search the Orlando area for you. Are you going to Megacon show in Orlando?? I would hope that some of these books would be available at a large show even if it's just a few? I am planning on attending and wouldn't mind seaching for some of these there.

 

The way I see it, the more I am searching for comics on your list, the less time I have to drain my own bank account!!!!

Thankyou. When is the Megacon ??

I won't fly, so the only shows I go to are the London ones.

Ian, attached is a scan of a Kellog's Giveaway from the mid 50's. It stars Superman and has "Special Edition" in the lower left. Maybe somebody can host this for all to see. Does anybody have this? I have never seen or heard of one before. This comes from a The Man of Cereal article in CBM #63.

Well I've got the other three from the mid-fifties...

SUPERMAN DUEL IN SPACE

SUPERMAN THE SUPERSHOW OF METROPOLIS

THE SUPERMAN TIME CAPSULE.

 

But I've never seen or heard of this.

 

Just when you think you've learned it all..................

Some cold water should do the trick.

Simply amazing. I've been following your quest on these threads - it's great to see fellow collectors help you out with the list. I'm sure you will complete your collection, but when you do, will you start upgrading as well? Or are you already upgrading your books?

I'm already upgrading some when affordable better copies turn up.

 

But these last 39 are proving a real problem now.

Someone offered me the three Flash's but they were all near mint and way way out of my price league. I'd be happy with them in good. I have no problem with low grades as long as they're complete.

 

PLEASE EVERYBODY, I NEED HELP FINDING THESE LAST 39.
