EMazman Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Anyone else collecting these books? I only have two issues in the original run so far including #18 which has Doctor Solar in it. It's a fun challenge trying to find these in high grade. mysterymachine, Spider-Variant, comic_memories and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just not out there. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Less Blob Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 I collect all of these painted cover gold keys. I won't pay more than $2 for one though. I am buying them because I like the covers. This at least has the potential for a re-boot and cross-overs unlike the anthology type books (Ripleys, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boppy99 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 I have around nine issues, with the rest being on my want-list. This was one of my favourite titles when I was a kid, and I'll grab them whenever I see them if the price is right. Lakota Rainflower was super-hot! By the way, I think the writer (Don Glut) posts on this site now and again too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see them all the time on Ebay, marketplace, and mercari. I want better than reader copies, they don't appeal to me with a bunch of creases. It is nice to get them in nice shape on the cheap. I guess I can deal with some wear on older gold keys, mid-60s 12 centers and tolerate the condition issues on Dr. Solar, Magnus, and Turok because 12 cent cover price copies are hard to find for $2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. 18 and 23 also have Solar but not to same extent. I had someone on here that was gonna sell me their #14 but they vanished on me.

So much content untapped. It's 4th on my priority of collections. I want the Solar issues first but either nobody is selling/parting with their 14's and 23's.
