How modern collectors view DC 10c superhero books varies across different titles. While some such as Adventure Comics can be seen as quaint and nostalgic, others such as Jimmy Olsen are perhaps seen less kindly, as silly relics of a bygone age. Few will ever collect them as they are around in such small numbers, especially in nice condition. They will likely remain as a curiosity. It is important that all titles are collected and so preserved for future collectors.

They did a great job of piquing the reader's curiosity with the cover. steelcity and adamstrange 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with all the points you've mentioned here. Though as a kid I preferred Aquaman, Wonder Woman and the Julius Schwartz titles to the "Superman" family titles, I certainly recognize that even the secondary Mort Weisinger titles such as Jimmy Olsen have a charm of their own. As a result, I respect what collectors such as Silver have accomplished with respect to acquiring high grade "Superman" titles going back to the 1950's including Jimmy Olsen and Superboy. Moreover despite the breadth of my own collection of DC comics, I actually envy the depth of Silver's "Superman" title collection.
