Straw-Man Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Both sold for $35,000 about 2-3 years ago. Which one would you choose, and why? neither. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Surfer Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Both sold for $35,000 about 2-3 years ago. Which one would you choose, and why? neither. And why? They seem like steals today. Even though I much prefer to own a AA#16 but a decent low grade pedigree copy of Supes #1 would probably be the wiser choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjpb Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 It depends - is the Supes #1 a first printing - or a second or third Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VintageComics Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 It's a tough call....but I'd go with the AA #16 simply because of the grade and eye appeal although on any given day I could choose the Superman #1 because it is one of the coolest comics ever.

ashrael Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 AA #16 by a hair. Supes #1 is little too crusty compared to the AA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cimm Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 AA #16.... First Green Lantern, higher grade, more eye appeal... Given that I spent the same money to get them, I would flip the Supes, and keep the All-American. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showcase4 Posted February 10, 2009 Author Share Posted February 10, 2009 An unprecedented match-up for this thread ........... 1 book or 2. Which one would you choose, and why?.......The unsold / don't know the auction value yet Metro Action 1 6.0, or the Bats 1 and JIM, with combined values of approx. $400,000+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1koko Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 At $400k I'd say the Bat #1 and JIM #83. The Action #1 won't hit that amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Surfer Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 At $400k I'd say the Bat #1 and JIM #83. The Action #1 won't hit that amount. I agree, $350ish tops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiverbones Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Tough to say But I'd go with the Bats #1 & JIM #1 as well. Then I'd sell the JIM faster than you could imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
