rjpb Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Ok here is one. Jumbo for me! I get a kick out of Fiction House Superhero covers because there are so few of them. This one is particularly nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filter81 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 And yet another (remember the money is roughly the same), I won't post the money because that would be indiscreet! OR If I were offered those two books I would take them both! In a split second! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theagenes Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 (edited) All-Flash over Jumbo (if it were Jumbo 15 with the Sheena cover I would choose it) 'Tec 29 over GL Ouch! tough choice on the MMs. The 4 is one of my all-time favorite covers, but the 9 is also a classic cover and historic issue with the first superhero crossover battle. I guess I'd go with the 9 by a whisker, but it would be a tough call. 'Tec1 over Flash 1 Edited January 16, 2007 by Theagenes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedarkknight Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Here is another: OR Detective Comics 29. It's my grail book and all time favorite Batman cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Black Hand ® Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Jumbo 16 'Tec 29 MM 9 Flash 1 I will echo this choice, although it was a tough one because of the Detective 1 and having a vivid memory of that book in a display case at Cherokee book store when I was kid. On second thought, I'll switch to the detective 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Surfer Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 And yet another (remember the money is roughly the same), I won't post the money because that would be indiscreet! OR Two grails, two classic covers but I'd take issue #9 because its hard to find and its a slightly more action packed cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CentaurMan Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 And yet another (remember the money is roughly the same), I won't post the money because that would be indiscreet! OR Wow, that's odd, I log in this morning and see a comparison between two exact copies that I currently own. With both books in hand, I'd easily say the #4. The resto job on #9 was shoddy, while the #4 was brilliant. Bill, do you know who did the work on those two books? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEyeSees Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Congrats on owning two stupendous book, CentaurMan!! We should all be so lucky! My choice: MARVEL #9, hands down. Best cover of the MARVEL run for my money, hard to get, battle issue, two GA artists I love collaborating (Burgos and Everett)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CentaurMan Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Adventure #40. Even if it weren't one of my favorite books (see avatar), I'm aggressively opposed to the "feel" of cleaned comics, so I'd be against that 'Tec #29 from the outset.

G.A.tor Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 (edited) hello all... specifically to ciorac's.... Larson Jumbo, Tec 29, MM 4, Flash 1 (incidentally,all these currently are, or were recently bill's copies, I believe...so for that, you get a !)... I like the Tec 29, too sweet to pass up, even slight with cleaning...however, the Adv 40 is very close rick Edited January 16, 2007 by Detective27kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
