Popular Post the blob Posted January 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 13, 2021 OK, same idea as the last thread. Dunno what the CA equivalent of Bats 227 or 251 are. Maybe Batman 423? Jayman posted this one in Bronze and it is definitely up there as a desireable book because of the cover long after anyone cared about this sort of cross-over, which sed to be a big deal: mec3437, Legion HQ, maidenmate91 and 5 others 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post the blob Posted January 13, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 13, 2021 This book has bounced around. It was worth something in the early 90s, and I have been able to sell it for a little bit of a premium over the years in nice shape ($7-$10), but I see a bunch of low price sales recently, so I guess folks don't care anymore. I love this cover and buy it when I see it. I may have 10 copies. shiverbones, SpidersComics, whetteon and 6 others 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm here, I finally broke down and bought Next Men #21 but not too many thread findings on my radar to post up. Still, I haven't bought too many for this thread either that I can vouch should be crazy status Jasonmorris1000000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the blob Posted January 13, 2021 Author Share Posted January 13, 2021 I'm not using my own scans necessarily. Mike Zeck might be half of these covers, JTLarsen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broke as a Joke Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 So many covers...but to continue on the Cap Zeck theme, Cap 284, 287, 321 and 332. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Number 6 Posted January 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 13, 2021 This is the second part of a 2-part story (as typical of the period) but I’m sure most people are interested in this issue alone for it’s cover. Certainly much more atmospheric than the cover to the first part and kind of a nice throwback to the early Bronze Bat books. mysterymachine, Readcomix, Jasonmorris1000000 and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am perplexed by why that one does not garner more interest $-wise as it is the standout Batman cover for that little period. I look it up every couple of years to see if the market has finally appreciated it and then I see a bunch of $3 sales. If the shrunken head had a nice rack or something then maybe the market would care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know but if I had to venture a guess it might be due to the fact that this one of the issues that got reprinted in those multi-packs around the time of the first movie, perhaps creating a perception that there’s a glut of them out there. waaaghboss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never a shortage of them, true. There's a first print newsstand and direct. And then I see a 2d print listed. And then I see a different one from the multipacks listed as a second print that has a different UPC box and a different back cover. And then I see something listed as a Mervyn's 4th print, that looks identical on the outside to the regular 2d print. Was there a second print newsstand? Any other prints of this issue? I apologize if this was the topic of a thread already. Clearly it was popular when it came out with all these extra prints! So I went to Mile High because they are good about listing all the prints and they have the direct edition 1st print at $48 in NM and 2d print at $45 in VF! hah!!! higher than a slabbed 9.6 goes for.
