Stevenrams Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Here's one I just got subbed. Nice copy. Presents well for the grade. I wouldn't mind owning a copy as nice as that. Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hepcat Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 (edited) Gotta admit I'm stymied over how a title with as long a history as this one (and over-the-top sales) gets so little attention on the boards. Not unhappy...less attention means less competition...just a lil flustered. OK, carry on. I'll scan more of my JLA books in a few months time but I'm still working on scanning other titles that typically don't get as much attention. Not everything can be done at once. Hepcat, anything slabbed in yer homestead??? Just a 9.2 Mystery in Space 75 undercopy on which I'm entertaining offers. I've cracked open every one of the dozen or so slabbed books I've bought over the years. Edited July 2, 2011 by Hepcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLA Brad Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 That #42 is NICE! The colors really pop! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tth2 Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 It'd be nice to see some of your JLAs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLA Brad Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 This is possibly my favorite cover - Here's another one: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hepcat Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Those are exquisite copies! I prefer the cover art on the #27 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLA Brad Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Fair enough - although my scans aren't nearly as clear and crisp as yours - I really like the vibrant colors of #43 when I see it up close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tth2 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 I like both of those. I'm amazed at the price that the TC #43 just sold for on Heritage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLA Brad Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 I found the bidding to be very competitive on the JLA's today - I had my sights set on a couple in particular but wasn't able to come away with either...of course I didn't leave empty-handed in the end, but that's the way it goes sometimes.

tth2 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Yeah, some very strong prices for some really high grade copies. I thought the pick of the litter was the 9.4 #29, more so than some of the 9.6 and 9.8 JLAs on offer, as that is a tough tough tough book in HG, which is funny because it comes right after #28, which is one of the most common JLAs in HG, and #30, which is not particularly difficult in HG. I've never managed to own a NM copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paperheart Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 I like both of those. I'm amazed at the price that the TC #43 just sold for on Heritage. i knew you'd beat me to it. i honestly thought i had written the grade down incorrectly and it was a 9.8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLA Brad Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Yes, #29 went up in the bidding quickly and I didn't even bother getting in a bid on that one. But you're right, that key issue was an important one to try and get...but I just wasn't willing to spend that amount of money on that issue then.

JLA Brad Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Tim, Just out of curiosity, if you were to rank the JLA's that went up for auction, from most sought after to least, which 5 issues would you have ranked 1-5 (obviously from your comments the #29 is first).

I'm not even sure there were 5 really standout JLAs, because I just can't get fired up over issues like 37 or 32, even if they're in 9.8. I think 3 were fairly noteworthy: 1. 29 2. 11 3. 40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLA Brad Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Oh Tim you're so jaded Interesting though - as I'm much newer to collecting JLA's I identified 8 different issues that I would've liked to have won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am indeed. That's why it's always good to have new blood in the hobby! Don't get me wrong, there were lots of very nice JLAs in the auction, but the 3 I listed were the only ones I would've gone hard after if I were still collecting.
