Tri-Color Brian Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Since I have very few B&Bs, I'll just jump in here and show my favorite before Silver posts his 9.6... hchill25, MR SigS, Math Teacher and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Posted October 28, 2022 Author Share Posted October 28, 2022 Brian, I love the Cave Carson issues as well. Unfortunately no 9.6’s! 😂 Tri-Color Brian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Silver Posted October 29, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 29, 2022 For whatever reason I don't seem to have pictures of brave and the bold 29 and 30.

Popular Post Silver Posted October 29, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 29, 2022 (edited) Well, speaking of Cave Carson, let's get to it. His first issue in #31 is considered a very tough issue in high grade. I have had to upgrade mine twice, once from a low grade copy to a 5.5, and then a couple of years ago to this raw copy: Edited October 29, 2022 by Silver hchill25, buttock, Tri-Color Brian and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Posted October 29, 2022 Author Share Posted October 29, 2022 This is my second copy of this issue, I had a low grade copy for years (decades) until I got this CGC 8.0 and de-slabbed it: Math Teacher, Tri-Color Brian, hchill25 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Posted October 29, 2022 Author Share Posted October 29, 2022 This issue I have had since the 70's no real need to upgrade it as it was the nicest early issue of B&B that I had: Math Teacher, PopKulture, hchill25 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sauce Dog Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Okay i'm now in the #28 club...after having built this in a cave! With a box of scraps! Literally...a pile of ripped up pages (many taped together that I had to remove), and missing the front and back covers (so I hunted down a replacement back cover and installed a facsimile front cover in order to make this the best looking for display, bottom of the barrel key ever). How it started... ...how it turned out. Tri-Color Brian, Math Teacher, PopKulture and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Math Teacher Posted December 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 30, 2022 @Silver, I can't compete with your books, but I'm pretty happy with what I have. Of the covers above, I have always been partial to Hawkman #1. Yes, I know it isn't by Joe Kubert, but I like Murphy Anderson quite a bit. When I started reading comics, I was always fascinated by this cover. I finally got a copy of this book in the early 1980s, and then I upgraded to this last year, I believe.
