Picked up a second issue of the Science Comics run.  Now I have my favorite cover of the run (#2) and my least favorite (#8)!

I know what you mean for sure! I still kinda like it, in the way that I like all those lunkheaded Fox hero covers. Kind of funny to see them shoehorned into SCIENCE Comics of all places. You can almost hear Victor Fox guiding this one -- "The kids are buying superheroes? OK, we'll give them effing superheroes!!"

Used to own All Top Comics 16. really miss that issue.

I don't follow the Fox market but I'd be curious what folks think this copy of Weird Comics 7 might go for in today's market. I picked this up in the mid 2000's before the Fox market went crazy because I liked the cover and it was so pretty. Bought from A1 Comics it was noted as cleaned and pressed so I guess a purple label of some sort? Great book on the inside I loved the Sorceress of Zoom story the most.

Great book! One data point: here's a sharp-looking VG+ #7 that HA sold for $1380. Seems loosely in the same ballpark as your copy.

Thanks, well I did well on that buy if that is the ballpark!

Can anyone confirm is it a good time to sell Dagar Desert Hawk #21?

Picked this one up a couple of months ago but never shared it here.

Only 14 universal copies on the census, and only 9 graded higher than 1.0

Yes indeed, as I have always loved the colors on the cover of Science 1, especially when it comes to this particular shade of blue.
