I absolutely love All-Stars! I've been working on my run for a while now. 24 down, 33 to go.

 

Here's a group shot I took a few weeks ago. Robert B, I bought the #36 from you at the 2006 NY Comic Con.

 

 

I would say #36 is the easiest to sell of all the higher numbers. I surely miss my All Star #36, that was a decent copy

 

Here is an All Star teaser

I love that cover!

[G.A.tor]

count me in as a GA collector that really wants a nice all star run!

I only have picked up these 2 (both unrestored, the AS 3 is the Crippin copy) and a 36 (my 3rd fav issue of the run)...the rest will come when they come (hopefully a chunk from the Bails books)...

keep posting those AS!

....what are the grades on those rick?

[Socratic Wonder]

I have always been kind of a big logo whore when it came to Golden Age books....I always felt that large logos really had that GA look and defined that era of comics. After looking at this entire run so frequently over the past month I have to admit I am much fonder of the later (small logo) issues. The early covers in the run, which are mostly stale with little action, truly pale in comparison to some of the fun action covers which saturate the later issues.

 

Don't get me wrong though, some of those early covers might be lacking action from our heroine and heroes but they still have a wonderful mystique about them.

 

Truly a great run of GA comics!

[RedFury]

I completely agree. My favorite covers are numbers 33, 35, 36, 37, 42, and 43. What do they all have in common? The artwork is by Irwin Hasen, of course!

I respectfully beg to differ. This is one of my favorites and, IMHO, one of the best war covers around:

He certainly wore his summer costume that month -- apparently forgot his leggings -- but the boys (except for that grouch, Spectre) seem glad to see him.

Well first let me say that is one white paged beauty and a wonderful war cover!

 

My argument was that as a whole there are more action packed covers in the later issues. Aside from this issue, and one or two others, all of the early covers are of the Justice Society posing. I am not saying this is a bad thing either...I mean with #3 you have one of the most recognizable GA covers and it contains zero action...doesn't detract from its coolness one bit!

 

#11 is an amazing cover though and I understand your point. I wish the early issues had more covers that resembled this one.
