ttfitz Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Saw this thread while looking around the place, and since I picked up a few last weekend at the Baltimore Comic-Con, thought I'd contribute a few. Look, a gorilla! "A Great 3-Part Novel" - all in one issue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you can enjoy both story and art. Congrats! Thanks - if you can't tell, I'm also big on Superman collecting. I was glad to find these - it's been a couple years since I've been to a convention, and I was a little overwhelmed at first. Hard to find the stuff I'm looking for, and then when I do, it's usually better condition than I want to pay for. But these books (plus one other which was 12-cent cover, Superman 152 - the last Superman I needed to have all 51+ years I've been alive; 2 Action left to go) were just what I needed.

SLR Keeping in mind that I didn't set out to get a run which covered my lifetime, it's just worked out that way - I was born in April, 1962. When I went to Baltimore, the highest issue I needed of Superman was 152, which happens to have the cover date of April, 1962. So now I have a Superman run from issue 149 (11/61). As for Action, I am missing #300 (5/63) and #295 (12/62) in order to have a complete run from #277 (6/61) up. Throw in #276 and #269, and I get a compete run back to #264 (5/60). Not everything is in the greatest of shapes - I've possibly got a couple from 1968 or so that have "Timmy" written in ink on the cover - but it is complete.

Stevenrams Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Well that's quite a collection you have. And I'll add that if you're happy with the books then condition is of no concern. And anyway, you can always upgrade some of your personal favorites over the years. SLR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLR Thanks, and you are absolutely right. Me, I decided years ago that I'd rather have 2 FN books than one NM (although it looks like that gap has widened even more), and would rather have 3 VGs than 2 FN. And for some books I'll even go to G if it is a Good "G". So I once I buy something, it usually goes off my list. In case anyone gets tired of posts without any more books, here's another 10-center I found lying around. Switching it up a bit, Detective 259.
