Warlord Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I've got two cool new additions to the DCW hoard! This pack is unusual in that it includes Wonder Woman #260 which is somewhat commonly seen in a 3-pack with Wonder Woman #255, #257, #260 (#255 in middle). Not many DC Whitmans have been spotted in multiple combos! The awesome thing about this pack is that it's the first time I've ever seen a multi-pack that contains Superboy & LSH #257! I have never seen this 2-pack before, and haven't ever seen either of these comics in any other pack combo! On top of that, these are two tough to find issues, and super tough in HG.

Warlord Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Here's another goodie I'm adding to my collection, a nice Super Friends #22! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Amazing Chump Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Is this anything? I see the variant on GCD, but don't see it listed in the census. Is it unrecognized, or just something that's as common as the regular version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warlord Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 It's the Whitman version as opposed to the Gold Key version is all. I don't think anyone is going to claim that it's a particularly rare Whitman version. But it's a nice copy of an Uncle Scrooge book, so you've got that!

Shark Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Just back from CGC: I recently purchased 3 or 4 lots in an online auction of what was advertised as a "complete set" of The Black Hole. So I was hoping that these lots contained an issue #4. Unfortunately, none of them did. I paid very little for each lot and the other copies of 1 thru 3 were all in nice shape so I still came out OK in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrwoogieman Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 (edited) I was just sorting through a pile of about 30 different Whitmans. Got an Addams Family 1 in there that looks pretty nice, a Wacky Races, Funky Phantom, bunch of ducks books, etc., etc. And -- wave of nostalgia alert -- one of them was Hanna Barbara Fun-In with Inch High Private Eye!! I had totally forgotten about that cartoon! Edited February 28, 2013 by mrwoogieman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bergdoll Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Just had some great luck with a long box of odds and ends. Some great Whitman's - including one of the elusive WRC&S that has been annoying me by being HTF. Love the super-hero scans above. Those are wonderful books.

Out of curiosity, what does WRC&S stand for? Or, is the R supposed to be a D? In which case, nevermind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wall-Crawler Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 I have learned so much since joining these boards. Not so long ago, I would have pretty much dismissed these books. I am still in the process of going through a large collection I bought. These are the Gold Key Whitman's I have found...To date...Not sure if there is anything really significant yet, but it has been great finding out about them! Sorry for the blurry pics... Off to check out the list that is posted on Page 1! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wall-Crawler Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 For 'description sake' how does the Whitman 'ranking' order work? For example is it Rare, Scarce, Uncommon or some other order? Just trying to figure out the pecking order so to speak. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiceX Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 It depends on the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicwiz Posted June 20, 2013 Author Share Posted June 20, 2013 Doug has expanded the list since I first started this thread, so there are more books which have since hit the top 80-100 rarest Whitmans. I would say that apart from the fact that the 75 cent price variants were intended for the Canadian market, they are among the rarest Whitman's I've encountered. I've owned more Black Hole 4's, Uncle Scrooge 179's and Woody Woodpecker 191's than I have the 75 cent price variants for Winnie the Pooh 33, Little Lulu 268 or WDC&S 510. High grades (9.4 or higher) are practically non-existent. The census totals on the heavy hitters is still extremely low - 54 for Uncle Scrooge 179, which is arguably the most prized of the Whitman rares. If going by rarest, the census totals drop significantly with 11 for Black Hole 4 and 8 for Woody Woodpecker 191. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
