ciorac Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 I voted for two of those in the superhero GA cover contest. I don't know if it was a comment by SeanK or if it was Batman Fan's mentioning how he takes his Batman 1 out a few times a year to enjoy reading it, but I can tell my subconscious is starting to wrap itself around the idea that it's the book I'd most like to own. Kind of underappreciated on this board because it's not as rare as certain DC keys but I think it's time for opinions to start shifting. Congrats! It was a BIG weekend for me! Thanks HOC! It has long been my favorite book. So much great stuff packed into a first issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HouseofComics.Com Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 I count myself fortunate to have had the Famous First Edition as an eight-year-old so GA Batman stuff seems very natural to me. Imagine my shock to grow up and find out there aren't any newsboys on the corners shouting "Wuxtry!" Or was it "Extry!"? I can't remember, I'm sure Norrin Radd remembers.

I just re-read your post again, and your words ring so true. Many blow off Bat 1, because there are quite a few copies out there, by golden age standards. But few #1 issues give you as much as this one does. Cap 1 comes to mind, Action 1 of course, but that is about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
