Far more AF 15s (2216 U.S. and 48 U.K.) than Batman 1s (128) on the census.  Far more in high grade AF 15s (24 copies 9.0+) than Batman 1s (4 copies 9.0+).  And the AF 15 numbers are certain to increase more significantly than the Batman 1 count.

Exactly.  So forget the grade numbers and go for something truly unique.  Imagine telling your friends you snagged "the 'Naked City' copy"

Let's leave the spiderman cheerleaders out of the debate. It'll be bad enough when the 9.6 hits 4Mil and they start to profess that their 2.0 copy now should easily be worth 150-200K

I have a .5 but complete. Should be able to get 25K for it after this. I'm joking........or am I? No, I'm joking. But I do have a .5 complete, that I wouldn't joke about. Ugliest AF 15 you'll ever see.

Was it somehow owned by the Invisible Woman at some point?

Yes. It was a consolation prize after Invisible Man dumped her for Wonder Woman

You don't see her posing with it?

Well she is standing in front of it which makes it both distracting and hard to see..

Unfortunately for you, my copy, which is of the exact same grade and PQ, is available for only $9999.

Yes, although we certainly can't see him because he invisible, it certainly seems like she's feeling all of him from her reaction.

Speaking of Action 1. The beat up page 5 is at 15k with 3 hours left.  Hope it hits 20k.  Second greatest Action 1 page IMO (and to a lot the best)

Yep you got your wish + 3K.

The two Action 13's , 5.0 and 1.0 , didn't fare too well. I didn't expect that. The 1.0 went for 13,338 tonight. The same 1.0 went for 22,522 also on CC in 2017. Wow. A 1.5 on H 26,400 in June. And a different 1.5 for 26,509 in 2017 on CC. At 13K tonights seller must be really disappointed. Probably could have easily got 15K for it privately, if not 20K. 

The 5.0 at just under 38K. Another disapointment for the owner. Real nice 4.0 on H in 2018 - 77,675. Weak looking 4.0 on CC in 2017- 37,501. And the last 5.0 in 2012 on 35,850. I just noticed tonights 5.0 was a light tan to OW. I guess thats what hurt it so much. Still a good looking book for the grade.
