These books have some of the best 50's Kirby work. Very far out stuff, I would say that Jack was about 10 years ahead of his time with some of the graphic layouts he did in YC.

 

I'm with you AtlasFan, especially the combination of Kirby/Severin in YC 4.

Anybody win any of the hero books on Heritage? I thought the Young Men and the Men's Adventures went for reasonable prices. Most of the others were at the high end of reasonable, but I couldn't believe a few of them:

 

Black Knight #1, 8.5, $2,150 :o

Black Knight #2, 8.5, $1,135 :o

Captain America 77, 5.0, $1,195 :o That's a lot of $s for a VG/F

Human Torch 37, 7.0, $1,314

Human Torch 38 8.0, $1,792

 

Some people wanted these books pretty bad. I'd be interested in other peoples' comments.

It's true that you don't see the Black Knights in grade very often, but I didn't think there would be a lot of demand for them. I guess it only takes two to tango. I was also surprised with the Cap in VG/FN. I think that shows the power of this character to command top dollar versus Subby and Human Torch.

I was in on the Black Knight 1 but bowed out. I couldn't believe the prices for those. Still in the mix for the number 5 though...the best cover even though it's only a 6.5.

I was waiting for two months to pick up that Black Knight #1 to finish my run!!!

Highest graded copy, not a book that comes up very often above 6.0. I wanted at least a 7.0 copy and this book would have been a nice edition to my collection.

 

But over $2000.00 just blew me out of the water!!! :tonofbricks:

 

That really sucks but confirms my belief that this title is WAY underpriced in Overstreet and tough to find in any decent grade!!! Especially #1.

By the way, if there are ANY Black knight #1's out there I would love to see if only to help get an idea of grade for this book. We know CGC has almost nothing certified, so where are they!!!! Anybody holding a few nice copies????hm
