I'm the guilty party lol Adam is being very kind to me in re: to a time pay, so as soon as I get the book paid I'll be very happy to post it here! In the meantime here is my "placeholder" copy!

He does have great books but he is kind of the Mile High of this time on prices (IMO) tell me the price is way off. I do think its a great cover love it. :censored:

 

 

Sold in 2014 for $1374. I understand this is a tough book, but is it a tough book because there aren't many out there or is it a tough book because there is not a lot of demand hence not a lot of people selling ala More Fun 73. Once it got expensive copies started showing up.

 

A cool book and I have a single random page from it.... (shrug) so I guess I am in the club

I've been following Flash Comics very, very closely for about 5 years. This is a tough book, and there is a fair amount of demand in the market. There are two stints in the Flash run that are tough -- 25-40 and 85-104. 86 isn't the toughest of the lot (I'd give the nod to 96), but it's certainly a more challenging one.

 

I've owned three copies since 2013 - a 3.0 (sold), a 5.5 (sold), and a 7.5 (still have).

 

When prices started jumping around 2013, a few were shaken loose, but only a couple. I know of a few private sales in the last couple years, too, but only a few.

 

Best of luck for those who are hunting. This one is a doozy.

. . . GA flash books seem to be as hard to come by as ga tecs these days!

I've been following Flash Comics very, very closely for about 5 years. . . . I'd give the nod to 96 (for being the toughest to find) . . .

 

It took me nearly five years and two whiffs to find this one . . .

Carmine Infantino makes his Flash Comics debut with the penand pencils of The Ghost Patrol. His style of fluent action will become theindustry standard for a whole new generation of artist to come.

Another excellent proto-SA villain in costume yarn.
