Brave and the Bold Collecting Thread 1 1

and...

 

I first saw this issue as a back issue in the 70's, I really thought it was cool how they put the original covers on the cover:

 

[Silver]

There it is B&B 1-200 in order! Every issue from a board members collection!

 

Thanks to everyone who participated, and especially to those folks who helped grind out 1-24, a beautiful group of books! Special thanks to Comick1 on posting so many high grade early issues, and Adamstrange fro breaking the log jam after issue 1 was posted!

Thanks to you, Danny! What an amazing run across the board. B&B is one of the quintessential DC runs. There's so much diversity in terms of artists, writers, and characters.

Now that all the covers've been posted, what're we gonna talk about now? Cool interiors? Acquisition stories? Ideas?

[Silver]

Upgrades!

I know we (I) spammed this thread awhile ago with the whole non silver age portion of the run; let's see if we can't bring this thread back to life.

 

I just picked up this nice copy of 32 to upgrade my complete dog copy that I posted back awhile back:

Thanks Steve,

 

Picked up another upgrade from Comiclink yesterday, a nice 9.2 at a 1/4 the price of a 9.4:

Newest addition in my B&B upgrade collection, a very nice looking 7.0:

Those are both really nice copies considering how tough the Cave Carson title is to find in grade.

I like any of those Kubert covers for Brave and the Bold. I posted these in group shots but they need to be here too.

For some reason this book has eluded me till now. I just need one more issue above 100:

 

[Silver]

So I was following a Brave and the Bod #78 Pacific Coast copy in 9.4 on the last Comic Connect auction. It went for $170 (I missed it by that much!)

 

I went and looked on Heritage and that book had previously sold for $201 in 2004 and then $538 in 2008.

 

And now $170. This isn't an anomoly, you can find all sorts of examples like this. Why do people sell stuff at such a huge loss in auction instead of trying to sell at a fixed price, or are all of these shill sales and none of these prices mean anything?

 

Anyone know?

[Silver]

Another upgrade, a little lower than I usually like, but I did a buy the book not the label approach!

That's a great book! Amazing coincidence - in the exact same month & year, the exact same writer/artists team (Kanigher, Andru & Esposito) did stories about task force heroes shrinking in size behind emeny lines- the Suicide Squad and the Minute Commandos in AAWS #74 !

 

[Marty Mann]

Always liked this book...picked up a couple copies in a group of comics

at an auction years ago.
