[1950's war comics]

although i will most likely never get issue #4 , ... this is also on my bucket list and currently within my budget , .. but a decent one seldom is offered,.. i have only seen a few for sale on eBay in five years

[1950's war comics]

and i also will be getting Showcase 2 and 3  i think they are AWESOME !

It's strange but if these issues were for sale in Ireland I'm betting that they would still be left in the box except for the Flash of course.

I came across this one today, talk about your reality television.

i can understand the lack of interest in Showcase 2 and 3....

but you think there would be no demand for a Showcase #1 in Ireland ? 

Wow , actually back in the not too long ago day,  i think Showcase #1 was a top ten Overstreet silver age book

i bought Cracked off the shelves back in the day ,.. about twice a year compared to buying Mad almost every issue ...

i liked Cracked too and i remember their big saying was ..."we know we are #2,.. so we try harder"  

[1950's war comics]

by the way........

Cracked are still DIRT CHEAP these days on eBay ,... can't barely give them away ... even the issues from the 50's.....

Not Showcase but a comic that's not a hero title.

i'm thinking that Tomahawk might just be one of the longest running / least collected series out there

they have some awesome covers along with the well known Neal Adams covers too

 

That's a harsh cover.  Was that the reason the guy wrote Bone Tomahawk?  Brutal movie.

The covers to these and #1 are far more interesting than #4 for me, especially #3!

I have to admit I've never bought a DC Showcase, and to be honest I can't remember ever seeing one on the spinner racks in the UK, though I know they were sold over here. Maybe others were just quicker off the mark in buying them?

me too,... and Showcase 2 and 3 are really tough in CGC 6.0 fine or better,... all i every see for sale are low grade issues,... VG at best and they want close to $400.00 for a CGC graded 4,0 on fleeceBay
