This is a book that has yet to get its due. The Batman 227 of bronze Supes....and a bigger standout relative to the other Adams covers in the run.

Amen. Plus, unlike Batman 227, this is a seminal issue in terms of plot and the long-term history of the character. Is there any Superman cover MORE iconic than this one?

DC Showcase #97 9.8 CGC (Power Girl)

 

Sold for $460.44

 

Don't' know why this book is hot right now. DC Showcase #98 is much scarcer.

Justice League of America #137 9.8 CGC (Captain Marvel Vs. Superman)

 

Sold for $275

 

Back in 2011, I bought mine from a board member here for $250. At the time, I knew I over paid, but I really wanted the book. Now it's getting a lot of steam because DC announce the Captain Marvel film. And we (Probably just me) speculating that DC will put these iconic characters to fight one another.

"1st Solo Power Girl Comic." is probably where the hype is coming from. I wonder if the other one that's been on Ebay for a month or so will get snapped up now. I actually bid on this copy because it's a better presenting example than the other one, but it just seems that early Power Girl is hot. All-Star 58 is not showing up very often in high grade and when it does people are setting new records it seems.

Agreed. It's a pretty awesome cover.

I don't find those Showcase Powergirl's that hard to find myself.

The Justice League on the other hand I think I have only found 1 in the past year and didn't want to pay what they were asking.

Raw's of course.

Come on comic world, AS 59 is the one to get, that's where her character REALLY starts developing! (Why is it that my collection includes so many mini-hoards of second appearances?)

I agree that the Showcase books aren't hard to find raw. In grade though, they're scarce, and 98 especially.

"This Superman #233 seems like it ended pretty high to me... "

There's a great 1970s jigsaw puzzle of this cover that is nice sized and you can get it for $10-15. A lot of awesome Adams puzzles, including some Batman stuff he drew just "straight to puzzle" and a few taken from Batman 251.
