I've always liked the Schomburg Green Hornet covers.

One of my favorite threads of the year. It's always fun to see the comic treasure amassed by everyone over the past 12 months. 

Thanks to @Cat-Man_America for keeping this fun tradition going!

2022 was another good year for my comic collection.  Since I like almost everything in the Golden Age comic pool, my buying tends to be meandering and eclectic.  No master collecting plan here! 

This is probably the only thread entry in CGC boards history that includes scans of Bulletman and Dennis the Menace.

Here are 10 of my favorite GA books acquired in 2022 (Four Color 148 was won at auction a few hours ago and represents my final(?) GA purchase of 2022):

I always ENJOY the heck out this thread!! Thanks @Cat-Man_America for firing it up!!

2022 was a pretty decent year for me comic purchasing wise that started out with a Bang of a Blue Ribbon I had made WTBs for since probably 2016. It’s a rag but she slots well into my humble collection. Some would say the real Pinnacle of my collection the Hero-Horror genre mashup. I also FINALLY landed the ever elusive Speed and Top Notch both issues 18 of their titles respectively. Same story cover wise (I have a preference for sure hehe) I had a Four Favorites 8 on the list for many years and somehow ended up with 2 of them!! Both low grade one being the Kurtzman File copy and the book only has 9 TOTAL copies on the census but they all seemed to come out of the woodwork at once!! So strange!! I picked up a cool little foreign Cap book just loved the cover!! I nabbed a Flash Comics 21. Not rare but hard to turn away from a classic Moldoff Hawkman especially this issue that many times lands in an oversized holder so i liked this copy as it’s nice and straight. I finished the year with the Blue Beetle 12 that will most probably be my last noteworthy purchase of 2022 but never say it’s over till it’s over. Wonderful thread I always LOVE seeing how everyone did through the year!! CHEERS and keep ‘em coming!!  

Nice batch of comics. I think I never saw any of these covers before,  perhaps even the Guri.

Aside from the Pulps and Promise copies, added to the Centaur pile with this one. Has the same theme as Suspense 3 and All New 8 (but predates them). Only thing is our hero may be too late on this one (the damsel appears to have had blood drawn) from the sacrifice 

One more tomorrow, my favorite pickup of the year

The year isn't over yet.
