2nd most favorite Adams cover

[oakman29]

Supes #317 has to be the big dog of this era.

Where is the back cover scan, Jason?

[TeddieMercede]

We need to get to the end of round 1 so I can start voting on the ones I really like again.

All-New Collectors' Edition #C-56

I thought it was a wrap-around, but couldn't find the full cover in my initial search .

 

Do you have one you could provide?

[Ajl007]

[mrlatko]

 

Fixed it. Thanks Aaron and Ryan. A couple others are wrap-around treasuries also, but I looked at the backs and they are nothing special IMHO. Those covers don't seem to be in the running anyway.

Not anymore. I had a few at one time but they all sold quickly at a local show when I took them. Wonder why?

[mrlatko]

I thought the Adam Strange Justice League or Muhammad Ali would dominate, but I underestimated the power of Ra's al Ghul from C-51!

[kimik]

It is an awesome cover, and the story arc plays a big role in its popularity as well. This edition contains the classic Bats #232, 243 and 244 story line if I recall correctly. (thumbs u

And Bats #242 with a very under appreciated Mike Kaluta cover.

[Ken Aldred]

You know, I've never seen that full cover before. (thumbs u I'll have to find a copy myself, especially taking into account what's reprinted inside. It'll go nicely with the raw NM All-New Collectors' Edition C-56 I picked up a few months back.

[Brian48]

That's actually my favorite of the Limited Collector's Editions. My second favorite is C-25.

 

[Ken Aldred]

For me that's one of the greatest Batman images. (thumbs u

 

Again, this is another book I never ever remember to search for, which includes a reprint of one of my favourite Adams-drawn issues, Detective 404.
