Hope that clears up whatever you do not understand. :banana:

 

I read the word Bat and then 1 and was trying to figure out how Batman 1 fit into that continuity. Simple reading/scanning error. Trust me, I am well aware of the entirety of the Batman pantheon. I've owned them all, several times.

 

 

Okay I gotcha. I've done that before as well. And no worries - I was under the impression you knew full well and I only posted the long message explaining it all not to just reply to you but just in general to make sure I was clear with my point. To be fair my original post was quick and I could see how it could be easily confusing. :foryou:

 

And to "I've owned them all, several times." I must say that is truly impressive - I have never complete "the run" even once in its entirety but I am working on it. I love the early batman books :cloud9:

 

(As an off topic side note - I also enjoy the original start trek series and Spock was always my fav character. Spock "rules" - "Live long and prosper")

And you will own them all again (thumbs u

 

Here was my last futile attempt at it

Breathtaking... :o:applause:

I remember them all (since most were mine to begin with :baiting: )

 

This pic really is amazing. All the books there are grails for the most part! :applause:

Here is my last Detective Pre-Robin I will post for the time being. Need to get better pics and a NEW camera. Some how my wonderful brother borrowed it and broke it. So all I got is this iphone to take pics with (only 3 mp). Enough rambling -

 

 

Detective Comics #37 CGC 1.0

I bought this from Yannis when he was upgrading his (and I think his new Tec 37 will be a 2.0-2.5 when graded :applause:).

 

Edit - I deleted a pic (I double inserted the same pic)

Why thanks Show!

 

But, the landscape changed dramatically when I decided to put the #27 in the collection. So all of the lovely Dectective Comics issues in the above picture were replaced by the lone book in the top left of this picture

But, alas, the economy turned quite ugly and they all have gone on to other collections. I .....sob.... have none of them anymore.........

My good sir.......... :o

 

I am speechless with this pic. Grails, Grails - did I mention grails?

 

Tec 27 - what grade was that beauty?

 

And to you later post. The economy has hurt us all. I am sure you will be able to re-gain these issues if you so chose later on. But if nothing else. You owned a Tec 27! You owned a Batman 1! You owned a Cap 1! etc etc.

 

As far as I am concerned even owning those books (and all at once I might add) is an almost "legendary" feat that most of us (myself included) dream of completing one day.

 

You had a Detective Comics #27 - did you read it and how did it feel my man? :cloud9:

 

 

:applause::applause::applause:

 

edit - corrected spelling

Wow just an awesome array of books! Nice pick-up on the Tec 34 and 37 Bat-Man. Keep it up with those tecs!

 

Just to make things clear, I am trying to do a run of Tecs 27-37 Batman covers only. As you can see from my mini group shot, all I need is a 27 and 31 (#27 is out of my range right now, but hopefully in a few years I can be able to buy one unrestored or restored).

Sort of embarrassing to throw this up here after all those awesome pre-Robins, but...

 

My GA collection is still in its infancy, and this is my only 'Tec thus far:
