Hes Right. MF52 isnt a grandaddy. Its a Daddy ! Certainly more important than Tec 29 and Much more valuable too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Knight Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 MF 52 is one of the Granddaddys of all GA...tec 29 (and I am a tec guy) is not even in the same game! rick I must respectfully, but whole-heartedly disagree. Hes Right. MF52 isnt a grandaddy. Its a Daddy ! Certainly more important than Tec 29 and Much more valuable too! Even if I'm a Tec guy, I'd have to agree with you and with Rick and Bill on this one. MF 52 certainly is a "bigger key" and certainly more important then Tec 29. It's the first appearance of the Spectre vs. Batman's 2nd cover..

PS.....please help contribute to this post with some of your comparisons as well...sometimes I think I'm running out of bright ideas ..............or Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batman_fan Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 You keep posting some real tough ones. I would go for the Human Torch because of the dust shadow on the Sensation. Both are really nice but at the end of the day, the Human Torch looks nicer to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS.....please help contribute to this post with some of your comparisons as well...sometimes I think I'm running out of bright ideas ..............or No contest IMO... Torchy all the way! The Human Torch has had such a larger impact on the nostalgia and historical significance of the Golden Age and is a much more enjoyable and entertaining superhero character. And to own his first issue of his first title in unrestored condition, is a very special feat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.A.tor Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 I have to go with the DC title....I think WW is one of the most underated GA titles out there, and a 9.4 is sweet...now, I am slowly starting to appreciate timelys, but until then, make mine PB&J rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1koko Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 Has to be the Torch for me too. A great cover. PS Was wondering earlier today what had happened to this thread. I'd suggest that there are a lot of potential match-ups in the upcoming Heritage signature auction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
action1kid Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 Its a tuff call. Neither is a first appearence, both have attractive covers, So I will go with the more popular character. Wonder woman by 3 lengths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Black Hand ® Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 Torch. The sensation is overgraded because of that sun shadow which kills it for me. Also, the Sensation doesn't have enough of the bangzoomian level of whiteness to appeal to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
action1kid Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 You know your right! I didnt take a good look at the Sensation. Where the hell did they get a 9.4 from??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashrael Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Human Torch 2 (1) - All other things being equal, I prefer the Sub-Mariner ripping apart the Nazi boat. I love WW2 covers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
