That is a spot on pretty book! One of my favorite Covers in the entire run. A recent purchase?

 

Thanks. I picked it up in 99' and it has a letter stating it's the Big Apple from All Star.

 

The Big Apple had some really nice books in it. I have two Green Hornets both with white pages. The 50 is one of those covers I have always loved and I still need for my collection ... 893scratchchin-thumb.gif

The paper quality is real nice... just a little rust on top staple and the problem with the BLFC. I'm working on a run of detectives myself. This is probably my favorite.

The other one I really like is 44. Fortunitely I have a copy of it. How close are you to finishing the run? I need a ton. The bulk is before issue 300. I have been focusing on the ones from ~70 to 300 right now but definitely slowed in the past several months as I have cut way back on buying and also done some big artwork pick-ups.

I like the cover, but why is Batman running away from the crooks?

I think he's just walking backwards to intimidate them.

I'm slowly working on 50-100.... real slowly. I'm not even close; Timelys keep getting in my way. I'd like to pick up a pre-Robin that's not too shabby lookin' .

That was my goal for last year, a clean pre-Robin Detective but I ended up snagging a Byrne cover instead (which I don't regret). This year, I hope to snag at least 20 more Detectives I need but so far none ... Last year, 29 yay.gif

I must strongly recommend you avoid going after the 54-100 run. (need to minimize the competition!) wink.gif
