It's a bird. It's a plane! It's Superman: From the 30s to the 70s. The book that started an obsession, and ended up becoming my mission. I'm sure my father bought it for me, but I have no idea why I obsessed over the thing. The art was mostly crude. The stories were universally terrible. (If he had given me the Batman: From the 30s to the 70s book I probably would have gotten into Batman.) But something about the history of the thing, those early covers with their bold colors and dynamic layouts pulled me in. I never read the stories, but would go back to that dusty hardcover again and again and flip through it, stopping at each double page spread of covers, from the early issues up through the 1970s Neal Adams ones. My kid brother at some point got a hold of the thing and destroyed the cover, then went to work on the pages with a magic marker. I kept it anyway. When @Point Five pushed me to buy an old, crappy copy of Action Comics 59 at a New York comic con 15 years ago, I should have known better. The cover was detached. It had color touch. I later found out that the cover was married. It didn't matter. In what was to become a decade-plus journey to complete a run of golden age Action Comics, all CGC'd. At first there was no plan. It just kind of happened one day, a few years into collecting them, when I realized I had a dozen. Then 2 dozen. Then 3.... My journey ended about a month ago, when I finally received the last book I needed to complete Action Comics 15-63, Action 23, courtesy of @Cosmic Boy. Getting that book back from CGC was a saga unto itself. But it will have to wait. I spent nearly 5,500 days building this collection. I'm gonna take 49 days to post them here. One book a day; each book a story.

Shipping on this book will be included in purchase price either on it or offer accepted Payment: Paypal Goods and services preffered Returns: I generally will accept returns if book is not received as advertised within 30 days. reigns supreme and overrides any offers via PM DC Action Comics #23 Mega Key 1st Lex Luthor! Low Grade Read Description. This was once a incomplete copy. The cover, 1st & 2nd wrap and centerfold were missing. Now it is complete with extremely high end reproductions of the cover, first 2.wraps and centerfoldThe wraps are even done on newsprint just like the original was. It is all put back together with original staples. So the cover, first 2 wraps and CF are high end reproductions and the rest including staples are original. Feels nice in your hands. Totally readable and would look amazing in a slab. This book would grade a "NG" with CGC and a .1 with the "Other" company. GPA on the last incomplete coverless copy was $1300 so asking $1300 OBO on this copy. -

Looking to nab a LOW NUMBER Action Comics (Needs to be SUPER LOW GRADE, but still have cover) anywhere from 0.5-2.0 graded is fine. Looking for anything between issue 2-25 range. Lower the better. Can be torn up, thrown across the room several times, dog ate part of it... whatever, as long as the cover is in tact/presentable and the book is partially there. This will be for "display" basically to hang on a wall as a conversation piece. Better if its graded but can be raw. Looking for "affordable" books so if you got something pm or post up! Thanks!

NO BUYER'S PREMIUMS — What you bid is what you pay! The Joel Shuster illustration on this cover is a classic of simplicity and dynamism and has eye appeal above its grade. It is important to note that this is only the third appearance of Superman on the cover of a comic and that there are just fourteen copies of this incredibly rare issue that have been certified unrestored by CGC. We almost never see the book on the marketplace let alone at auction - you can throw away the guide on this one! Also of note, this is only the third time that we have offered an unrestored example of this highly desirable and truly scarce tenth issue. Out of Superman's first three cover appearances, Action #10 has the fewest unrestored copies certified by CGC with a mere fifteen issues. With over forty unrestored copies of the mega key Action #1 and twenty-seven issues of Action #7, it's no surprise that Action #10 surfaces far less often.This issue is special in terms of it's significance as well as it's scarcity, and has a great pre-World War II cover with Superman destroying an enemy plane with one mighty punch! Serious Superman collectors already know how tough this early issue is. It should be noted, that an opportunity to acquire such a scarce and desirable issue like this one does not present itself often. Overstreet Guide 2018 VG- (3.5) value = $41,300. If you are a new customer planning to make a first-time purchase over $25,000, please contact us 24 hours in advance of the item closing at 212.895.3999 or support@comicconnect.com so that we may approve your account for bidding. (This policy was instituted to protect consignors and bidders against bids from fraudulent accounts, and to ensure the integrity of the bidding process.) Once approved, please log out of your account and then log in, for the approval to take effect. We realize many of you would like to bid on this auction lot, so for this listing, ComicConnect.com offers a 6 month, interest free, time payment plan with a 20% non-refundable deposit.

Hi all, For the last few weeks I have had a thread up offering mostly Classics and related material, from a 16-box estate collection that was maybe 85% Classic Comics/Classics Illustrated. Rather than run one long, confusing (to me!) thread for everything. I am willing to share from that collection, I am trying to share in focused threads, for those who might not be interested in everything coming to the board from this sizable collection. So here is round two, about half a short box of various Silver age Superman titles. But first, First in thread wins Payment: Checks or money orders (I don't have PayPal) Shipping: USPS Priority $7 for as many can fit in a legal size priority envelope, inside a flip n ship mailer. Single books can ship first class at $5. If we're over the legal envelope capacity, books move to a Regional box or medium Priority box (est. $10-$13.65). Returns: Sure, just notify me within three days of receipt and get them back on your dime in the same shape for a purchase price refund. Don't be listy including the little one in my head. Ready? Up, up and away! -

I purchased 2 framed pages that appear to be from Action Comics #1. I was thinking that I should have them authenticated or graded, if that is even applicable to pages that are out of the book. When I bought them I thought they were cool and I would just keep them it they aren't worth much. I just don't have any idea what they would be worth, how to find out what they are worth, or if it is worth it to have them authenticated. The pages do look like old paper, they are 13-5/8" tall and about 10" wide, the page that was torn has a rough uneven edge where it was torn out, and there are small holes about every 3/4" that look like it is for the type of binding that they used. The first page has frames 65-70 on one side and 71-78 on the other side, and the other page has frames 92 through 98 on one side and "Chuck Dawson" on the other side. I took pictures of each side and tried to handle them as little as possible but the pages aren't brittle, so that seems good. I don't know if frames is the correct terminology for the individual pictures on the page. I have had a few comics before but I have no experience as a collector.

Hi everyone. A few years ago, I got a bunch of Marvel variant #1s off of Gamestop's Powerup Rewards thinking some day I may be able to sell them if they are worth anything. A few years have past and I decided to at least investigate if any of these are worth something. I know nothing about grading. All I know is that I've kept the comics in good condition and kept them in their bags I got them in and carefully took them out while taking the pictures. The Marvel Gamestop variants include: All New Captain America #1 Amazing Spider-Man #1 Star Wars #1 Star Wars #4 SHIELD #1 Princess Leia #1 Darth Vader #1 Death of Wolverine #1 Guardians 3000 #1 Groot #1 I also got a standard first printing of Superior Spider-Man #1. Here are the pics to all of them just so the post looks a lot neater. https://imgur.com/a/3ZnNJka I'm just wonder what grades would you guys give the Marvel ones and if you think any of the Marvel ones are worth grading Lastly, I got a Loot Crate replica of Action Comics #1 and the regular Action Comics #1000 I was thinking of just keeping myself because I'm a big Superman fan. I'm just wondering what types of grades they get. I mean I assume 9.8s since they are still in the bags but I'm just wondering
