Popular Post MAR1979 Posted October 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 18, 2021 (edited) Another popped up while going through my slabs for scanning. There are only a few comics that remind me of my Dad, this is one of them. I do miss him. This was first month DC differentiated between Newsstand vs Direct Sale. They must have printed tons of the Direct version this first month. Not saying this newsstand is "rare" but from my observations it's lower in population. I do wonder if Jim Starlin thought this cover would be so remembered over 40 years later? It an excellent cover, but of course that's not the reason it's remembered.

The take on the characters differs from the comics, of course so too did both Cartoon series'. IMHO Raven and Wonder Girl are excellent. Also love Blackfire. Casting, scripting, for Jason Todd was perfect they found someone who I dislike in the same way as I did in the late 1980's comics. Sure wish Cyborg wasn't hiding out with Doom Patrol.

Popular Post MAR1979 Posted October 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 28, 2021 (edited) A DC for which I did purposely seek, something I almost never do, the newsstand edition. As child on a summer trip to New York with my Grandmother I picked up WW283 at a Newsstand below World Trade Center Tower 1 (Never Forget) Excellent Perez cover and Huntress backup Edited September 8, 2022 by MAR1979 ADAMANTIUM, mec3437, Dmac538 and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Lpgk Posted November 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 1, 2021 I bought a large collection from a kid that was stationed overseas. Apparently the base where he bought his comics only stocked newsies. These are just a few that are notable. I have about 2 long boxes left of copper NS.

These Green Lantern issues aren't newsstands - but the other photos you showed are. Just making sure you know how to recognize the difference.
