Norrin_Radd Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 I found this article and I thought it was a really good read. http://www.abbeville.com/Products/Excerpt/1558596437Excerpt.htm It talks about GA Batman in Detective Comics and all the artists involved and stuff. I must have missed this when you posted it. Very cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Durden08 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Awesome group of Detectives NewForce, especially the #28 which isn't seen to often. What's the grade and resto work done on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.A.tor Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 (edited) Awesome group of Detectives NewForce, especially the #28 which isn't seen to often. What's the grade and resto work done on it? hello all... the Tec 28 is professional resto (by matt nelson I believe)...was a g/vg? and now is 8.0 VF (color touch, pieces added, spine and cf reinforcement)....he (they) did a nice job indeed...picked it up from Sam in your neck of the woods, Illinois (a fellow vette enthusiasts....he is selling his comics to pay for his 64 vette, I sold my ferrari to buy tec's!, but kept my 63 vette!) should have my resto5.5 #35 soon....paid 1/6th of the crippin price, so I am relatively happy thanks rick Edited August 14, 2006 by NewForceComics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1koko Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 Agree with you. It is either overpriced or my copy (link on page 319 of this thread) was bargain of the century ($5.2k 2 months ago). Definetly not my copy on CLink as I wouldn't have the gumption to put it on atthat price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 Agree with you. It is either overpriced or my copy (link on page 319 of this thread)... I only show 26 pages of this thread. What are your settings set at, 2 posts per page? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
