They are all outstanding but I imagine that they will each go for an outstanding price and none are must have for me. I remember looking through that run forty years ago at Burrel Rowe's house. He had them in binders. I could pull any individual one of the comics out and thumb through them. They were all so beautiful. The next time I saw them was in 1982 as Burrel was selling them to Geppi. $4000 for the whole run. I doubt any single one of them will go for $4000 or less now. mwotka, TheMightyMidget, tabcom and 2 others 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post comicjack Posted November 24, 2018 Author Popular Post Share Posted November 24, 2018 Mr Bedrock posted his copy so i would say it is tough. I love books like this one from Billy Wright who had many great ones. Badger, bounty_coder, MrBedrock and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The subject matter, the tone, the colors they used, and the cool primitiveness of it all. comicjack, Point Five and jimjum12 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burrell sold them for double what he paid Chuckie and had a bunch of Fawcetts and ECs left over! Geppi probably doubled his money too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
