PokerKid Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 After looking at Filter81's very nice restored Marvel Comics #1 for $30k - and trying to figure out how I could make that happen - I can't comprehend paying this kind of money for either book. However, for me, I would want that Flash #1. 17 graded and only two better than a 6.5. AF has 22 graded 9.2 or higher (about half restored though).

showcase4 Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 Both sold for approx $59,000 within the past year or so. Which one would you choose, and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cimm Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Detective #27... I collect Batman... got no love for the big blue doof... and investment wise... I deem them equal, seeing as how Supes was first, but Batman is bigger (commercially), and cooler, and has more appeal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAP Freak Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Tec 27 because Bats is way cooler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamstrange Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Tec 27 because Bats is way cooler True. But I'd still pick up the Action 1 and then the Tec 27. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forbush-Man Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I'd take the higher grade Tech 27. Both are almost equal in importance, so the higher grade wins for me....better page quality too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crowzilla Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Since I offered the owner of the Action #1 $75K for it, I'll have to choose that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ebel 1911 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Action 1 because it's Action 1 and it would make a great display piece on a wall. Tec is great too but the colors on the Action cover tips the scales for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yannis Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Detective 27! Although the cover for Action 1 is a cooler cover, the grade for the Detective is quite higher. If the Action had a higher grade then it would be different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashrael Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Action 1...more important and rarer I'd take the higher grade Tech 27. Both are almost equal in importance, so the higher grade wins for me....better page quality too. Action 1 is OW/W, while Tec 27 is only OW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
