1962 Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 While I like Batman #1 more then Flash #1, the fact that it is a 9.6 and the Mile High makes this an easy choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBedrock Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 I'll actually make a choice , though I would love to have both. There are other Batman 1s out there that grade 9.0 or better. There will not be another Flash 1 in a 9.6 or better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Surfer Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Assuming that values are the same. Perhaps the rarest of all Timely's, an unrestored #1 October copy (is there even another copy that exists?) or: [/img] [/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Surfer Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Just as a side bar does anyone who has first hand knowledge of the condition of the MMC#9 feel that it could be pressed to a high grade, say a 9.0, or are the defects going to keep it where it is? This could be the toughest choice yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
