Iconic DC

This page right here is the one true FIRST SILVER AGE APPEARANCE of the Golden Age GREEN LANTERN, Golden Age DR MIDNITE, Golden Age ATOM, Golden Age HAWKMAN, & Golden Age BLACK CANARY and predates JLA #21 by a full 14 months!

Flash #129: The JSA appears only in a very quick flashback... they aren't physically there or involved in the story in any way. It's the 1st time the GA Green Lantern, Hawkman, Atom, Black Canary, Dr. Midnight, and Wonder Woman are seen in the SA though.

 

Flash #137: The JSA physically appears for the 1st time, though they aren't major participants in the story (it's still mostly the 2 Flashes). They are on a total of 5 pages, 3 of those as helpless prisoners of Vandal Savage. Still, they do have speaking parts at the end, after the Flashes rescue them, and they decide to reform the JSA after being apart for many years. Also, 1st Johnny Thunder in SA.

 

JLA #21: Reintroduces the JSA as an ongoing part of the DC universe, beginning their annual team-ups with the JLA. They are a major part of the storyline, equal to the JLA. Also, Hourman and Dr. Fate appear for the 1st time in the Silver Age.

Thing I am most surprised about this auction so far is not a single Charles Schulz piece yet.  Now that could change but with ~925 lots so far would have thought there would be 2 to 4 listed.

Maybe they'll make up for it with an extra dosage of Garfield strips.

That's good, it'll be the first auction in decades where I won't have been outbid on a Peanuts strip!

925 lots?

I think that’s the sum total of all items in this auction: comics, books, Mags, OA, etc.

Presently, there are ‘only’ 478 OA lots listed.

Got it, I track all items not just OA.  For these auctions total count is usually 1200 to 1400 all inclusive by auction day.  I have no idea what the typical OA artwork is.

on the comics side, here's a good one.    Grade looks slightly soft but the book does look gorgeous below the blue banner.

Interesting.  How does one price a Ditko Spidey page that features almost every key character from the Spidey-verse at that time, with one notable exception?

The dealer that has (had) this tried to. The ask was + $100,000
