Silver Surfer Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 One of the best GA covers period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirbyJack Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 It surprises me to hear that. I'd choose Adventure 40 over any other DC 1st app., with three exceptions; Action 1, Detective 27, or Flash 1. FoggyNelson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't think you'd need to reach if the book is as inert as we're hearing. FoggyNelson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The offers I've had to buy the book were above fair market value. People didn't want to take a huge bath on it. I've been looking for a restored copy for ages...

sacentaur Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Adventure 40 is a great book, maybe the rarest DC key, but with the source material including NY Worlds Fair '39 there is some slippage over the issue's standing in DC's hero pantheon. Besides, Sandman is not exactly a 'hot' character at the moment. I'm so happy Bedrock came along and sold me the right copy at the right price. As I said, a great book but not a great investment. walclark and piper 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan. Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 What do you guys think of the Adventure 40 cgc 3.5 that sold for 10.5k at comiclink tonight? It sounds cheap? Am I wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacentaur Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Detached cover may have affected the bottom line on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
