Popular Post Math Teacher Posted October 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 6, 2022 I picked up this grail from an IG user this week. I know there are people who will argue that this belongs in the SA forum, so I am just going to post here and there.

Popular Post Frisco Larson Posted October 7, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 7, 2022 @sagii posting those sweet Speed issues reminded me that I have a few that I have artwork for. At the end of the run, it's a bit easier to find nicer copies. The art is an Al Avison half page house ad featuring Captain Freedom. The Speed logo paste up was already gone by the time the art reached me. Point Five, pmpknface, ThothAmon and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it looks very bright and clean Thanks! It IS very clean and fresh in condition! I was very lucky to see it when I did or certainly someone else would've snagged it for sure! Al Avison superhero artwork isn't something I've had many chances at buying. I think a lot of that stuff changes hands privately and the rest of us never even get a shot at it. sagii 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just snagged the #22 last week, and while i would have preferred a higher grade, i am happy to own this one. The Speed's from this era are notoriously tough and as i get older, i will take what i can get, lol. These two were the ones i wanted from the run since putting them on my want list 8 years ago. I have found more Speed covers than interiors but the covers are pretty cool. Larryw7, pmpknface, sagii and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That depends on your definition of (too) expensive. Schomburg covers are grand to behold ...usually well over a grand. Seriously, I'd recommend looking at Nedor/Standard (Black Terror, Fighting Yank, Thrilling, Exciting, etc) and Harvey (Speed, All New, Green Hornet, etc). But high grade Schomburg covers will be wallet stressors. WolverineX, badback83 and Point Five 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
