nice pick up, I have 2 copies of 107 in vg range but that one has a very clean cover. and there is no tanning which seems to happen on the light blue covers. And white pages as well (thumbs u

Manage to snag this book for my TTA run

[Silver]

Amazing that we both have a HG copy of book that may turn up once every generation in grade. Actually the colors on mine are sharper. Should have adjusted the colors. I just bought it at Wonder Con less than two weeks ago.

 

I asked about you at Wonder Con and heard you weren't there?

[Stevenrams]

I showed up just on Sunday. I took advantage of the $8.00 Sr. Citizen discount admission fee.

 

I had prior committments on both Friday and Saturday.

 

Too bad we missed on another.

One of my grails. Or at least, one of my grails that I could afford. Got it for below guide, too!

[southerncross]

that's a nice looking copy for issue 1, and below guide great pickup (thumbs u this is one book I'd like to get but always get side tracked towards something else

[Bomber-Bob]

Had to say goodbye to a few books to welcome these.

 

Great books, all of them. Congrats!

That was the one auction I was watching from the group. Forgot to bid on it.

Just picked this up on eBay:

 

Looks to be in good shape plus I got it for cheap. My silly noob question is how come it's listed as being worth more raw than graded and slabbed? I pulled this from ComicsPriceGuide.com:

 

 

Condition Raw Value Graded Value

10.0 (GEM MINT) $300 $300

9.9 (MINT) $200 $200

9.8 (NM/M) $100 $100

9.6 (NEAR MINT+)$75 $75

9.4 (NEAR MINT) $50 $50

9.2 (NEAR MINT-) $40 $28

9.0 (VF/NM) $35 $21

 

Doesn't make much sense to me. Can someone elaborate?

[Jeffro.]

Couple new funny animal DCs.

Don't know about the price, but I am trying to figure out why that was posted in the SA forum?

[Arkadin]

DC really knew how to tune into kids' deepest fears and dreams.

 

The image of a phantom Superboy desperately trying to communicate with - and touch - his parents, the rising hysteria in his >GASP< ...pretty potent stuff. It's a great fantasy cover.

 

Oh yeah, I hear it's a key too...

Does this qualify as "Silver"? 1970 is right on the edge of the comic age.

 

A book that I've been hunting down for quite a while now and finally got a great price on it. Absolutely love this piece.
