whomerjay Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) #4. By more than a little but #6 is awesome as well. Like Ruth and Gehrig. I’d be shocked if the 9.2 at auction doesn’t reach 100K. This book, and numerous other non-superhero books, are just getting started. 100K for this book is going to look cheap in a few years. If a 4.0 3.0 Action 1 can fetch 500K 1.6 mil, and SA superhero books 1.0 mil or more , it seems only a matter of time before relatively rarer books from GGA/PCH/Sci-Fi genres, or key Baker/Cole/Frazetta books, reach a quarter or half of these prices.

Crowzilla Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 #4 for sure by a nice margin. (And I don't think you can sniff a 4.0 Action 1 for $500K) Funnybooks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Point Five Posted January 20, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 20, 2023 I have a #6, but do slightly prefer #4. (No doubt if I had a #4 it would be the other way around.) Here's my #6. Spine is frayed but the colors are nice! Paul © ® ⚽️💙™, comicjack, PopKulture and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 I have both but give the slightest nod to #6. Maybe it's the green cover or I don't like hair lipped sharks... ThothAmon, Black Bat and Northwest 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicginger1789 Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 I’ll go 6. The dark red at the top behind the title of 4 actually bothers me. Like, give me more artwork behind that title, which is what they did with 6. Both would be welcomed with open shark mouths into my collection should they ever swim into my feeding range.

Professor K Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 (edited) # 6 by a nose. Both are great but I like how 6 doesn't have a solid color title box like the red one on 4. You get the full picture on 6. And I love the colors of the water on 6. It's just got a slightly more "classic" look to me.

GreatCaesarsGhost Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 (edited) I love the rainbow water flowing over the side of the ship, and the figure on that woman is definitely one of Matt Baker’s best. But when I look at 6, all I can think of is Carmen Miranda. Besides, what is with that guy’s bicep. Shouldn’t it be elsewhere? So for me it’s gotta be 4 Edited January 21, 2023 by GreatCaesarsGhost Professor K, Yorick and comicjack 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldust40 Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 #4 as I prefer the composition of the art. It's just seems more of a classic image. Funnybooks and newshane 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 4 just has a clumsy pose that looks odd to me. Regardless of the shark. If only she was saving a shark in number 6. Hmmm...
