Scrooge Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 I'd have to go with 'Tec # 1. The asian menace is so representative of the time period that it trumps the Action # 4 by a long shot. I like comics because they reflect / encapsulate a time period I never lived in so these early covers with hints of cultural biases are to me.

The Black Hand ® Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 Detective 1. I've seen that star stamp in the upper right corner before, but can't remember where. Does it mean anything to anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showcase4 Posted October 28, 2006 Author Share Posted October 28, 2006 Both of these high grade non-keys sold in 2005 for the exact same price: $5,175. which one would you choose...and why? .........or I'd go with the book with Supes on the cover..and it's a Mile High!

Timely Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 Both of these high grade non-keys sold in 2005 for the exact same price: $5,175. which one would you choose...and why? I'd go with the book with Supes on the cover..and it's a Mile High! That was my copy for about 15 years. Someone before me erased part of the code on the top but apparently felt leaving the "8" was okay. Go figure West Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatEscape Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 (edited) Tec 1 for me...primarily due to the scarcity factor. The Action #4 is a wonderful and significant but the lack of Superman on the cover makes it less desirable for me. The unrestored Tec 1 just has that "wow" factor!

As much as I would rather the Flash, I'd pass on both. No way would I spend that kind of bread on mid run books. I don't care if the are Mile High, SF, Allentown or watever. It is just crazy to me.

The Black Hand ® Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 I'd have to agree on that. Maybe we should just play this game with an undetermined price or priced at guide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showcase4 Posted October 30, 2006 Author Share Posted October 30, 2006 I found this one to be quite interesting...hopefully you will also. Again, the goal of this thread is to come up with some comparisons that would split the decision as to which is more desirable, and discuss why. Both of these books have sold for around $14k recently So with that said, which one would you choose? .................or I would have to flip a coin, as I hold them so equal ( speaking for myself ), I would be happy with either. I must admit, now that quite a few of you have weighed in, I underestimated the demand for Tec #1. I now hold it higher regard than I did previously. Thank you all who chose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
