selegue Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 That 30 is probably one of my favorites. I like the orange background color and the way Hal is posed. And isn't it a stronger design than those little bugs running around on #13? Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLA_ALL_THE_WAY Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 That 17 was your biggest upgrade. What do the letters B and D mean? I need a 17, but I'm already in contact with someone about a copy. My own personal code: A= W B= Ow-W C= OW D= C-OW E= don't care, I don't collect GA so........ Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john72tex Posted June 5, 2008 Author Share Posted June 5, 2008 Gotcha. (thumbs u I guess I am now trying to stay away from "D" copies or lower. I've got a Flash 106 CGC 7.0 that has Light Tan to Off-White pgs as my biggest offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spookley Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Pedigree Comics bought JLA #1-3 (JLA #1 9.6, #2 9.6, #3 9.4) from the comic dealer in Kentucky. They are going on sale Monday....wonder what the asking price will be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash105 Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Fool Killer in the general room was cracking on the JLA #1 as being a "silly" cover. I cannot disagree more but wondered what our JLA friends think of the early covers. I love them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are going on sale Monday....wonder what the asking price will be I'm going to go out on a limb here and say...they'll price them for more than what they paid for them. You heard it here first, folks. Too bad about the timing. If I didn't shoot my wad at Heritage last month, I would've made a bold attempt at the #3. Oh well, that'll keep the price down for the eventual taker. As for Foolkiller, he's entitled to his opinion. Curious which JLA covers he DOES like. I've found JLA to be one of those titles that people either embrace for it's nostalgia & commaraderie, or dismiss it as purely kids' stuff. Childish or Childlike? You be the judge. My early personal faves are 9, 13, 19, 30 & yes, #1. I prefer covers that make you think/wonder, moreso than just slam-bang action covers.

cheetah Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I'm really interested in what they draw. Doug's never been afraid to ask for a big price. I'm enjoying the vicarious thrill of just imagining I could have mugged the guy before he came into the store! I'm bigger than he is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheetah Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I'm going to add, I actually own a JLA 193. It is one of just two DC books I own. If any real JLA collector needs it, let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLA_ALL_THE_WAY Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Thanx Bob & Johnny! Just transferred that $20K nut to a 1.87% account. Now it's a race to the fini$h line (1 year from May). Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tth2 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Too bad about the timing. If I didn't shoot my wad at Heritage last month, I would've made a bold attempt at the #3. Oh well, that'll keep the price down for the eventual taker. $20K worth of "bold attempt"? Too rich for my blood, I won`t be a player for the 1-3 at those prices.

JLA_ALL_THE_WAY Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Well, since the #6 went for $8K+, I figure the #3 to go for at least $15K. Anything less is a bargain. Unless another pops up shortly (yeah right). Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
