Gotham Kid Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 (edited) Much like we have one for ComicConnect and Heritage, we should have one for ComicLink. I like the idea of having all discussions bundled into a single thread. Makes things so much easier to research later on. We can kick this thread off with ComicLink Summer Featured Auction 2019 Edited June 22, 2019 by Gotham Kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since this book doesn't come to market too often, I guess this is another opportunity to see if this book really still deserves to be sitting at #4 in Overstreet's Top 100 Chart? Well, there's a good possibilty it'll be surpassed by Batman #1 when the new guide hits next month, but personally there's a few other books I would still put higher than AA 16, even though I do love its supposed rarity relative to the other big keys.

In one fell swoop, you have a Universal (ComicLink), Conserved (HA) and Restored (HA) copy all being offered at the same time. lou_fine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I guess it's as common as dirt like Cap 1 which apparently also has quite a few copies coming up in this next set of major auctions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean it's not going to get me one of those AA 16's, not even the restored one? Maybe I should try for one of those common as dirt Cap 1's then. Especially since I got my low quality compost for free from the landfill last month when they were giving it away on the weekends. Hmm.................free compost for GA books. Sounds like a good deal to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I buy regularly from both and know the scans aren’t reality but it really adds to the stress of not knowing if the book is going to look better or worse than the scans since colors vary oh so much on golden age books. The above being the same book, same grade, completely different appearance...

(even though it’s just a cheap Canadian knock off and not a true variant...) I was talking about the AA 16. Funny it was out the same time as that 'Tec. I can understand when a lesser book has a full page ad for a huge book. But notating a huge book has a full page ad for a much lesser book is just weird to me.
