I know the action on auctions really kick in the closer to end date it gets, but imagine if it goes for less than it went for in 2018. aardvark88 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phicks Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Does anyone know why DC was so reluctant to have Superman and Batman in the JLA or on the cover for the first 30 issues or so? BA773 and littledoom 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As strange as it seems now, I've read there was a concern back then about having DC's top 2 heroes "overexposed." It somewhat followed the earlier thinking from the Golden Age All-Star Comics that once a JSA member had his own solo book, he dropped out of the JSA and became an honorary member. Or in the case of Wonder Woman, became the team's secretary. But I guess if you really believed it was too much of a good thing to have Superman and Batman appearing everywhere, then you certainly didn't want some other editor (JLA editor Schwartz) to "steal" your readers, if you are Superman editor Weisinger or Batman editor Schiff.

godzilla43 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I dunno. I say over. Anyways I don't think record price for top census for this book would raise the value of the lesser copies. Early DC silver in high grade is rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BA773 Posted April 4 Author Share Posted April 4 Last day! Actual bid is 120 (144 with BP) Notice: the price of 215 000 for the last sold copy include the BP. If my calculation is right it makes 179 000 without the tax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
