Finally got the new year started today...

I haven't posted here in a while. I missed this place and these a great reason why, the third book is amazing and I would have never come across something like that except here.

Here's a sleeper sci-fi cover that is evidently pretty scarce.  One of only two Katy sci-fi covers.  Only 2 copies were on ebay last week...now they are both gone.  One of them is pictured below...and none are on the census.  Whoops...spoke too soon...now there are 3 more on ebay...   None as nice as mine though...

Not a recent purchase but a book that introduced the SA of Marvel to many kids that missed out on the '61-'63 intro issues. Also what I consider to be the second of the two great SA reprint origin books (DC's Secret Origins 1 being the other). The SA of Marvel Comics in its multipaneled glory!

A very undervalued book and extremely tough to find in high grade. Nice copy !

First Appearance of Mon-El and a nice AC dedicated to Supergirl that will display nicely next to my statue.

That is a beautiful copy of a rarely-seen title in HG.  Very hard to locate.  Congrats.  I have a few and I love reading them.  Congrats.  Please share any other DC Judy books.

Great book.  One of my favorite of the early Flash books.  Way undervalued.  I bought a Fine copy with vivid colors and spent next-to-nothing for it about 25 years ago.  Congrats.  Great story, too.

Not new but a favorite. Imagine how exciting it was for kids to see this one (and later on in '64 with Marvel Tales 1) when they saw this giant on the newsstand...

WOW!! Beautiful copy of one of my favorite DC books and my favorite annual.  I own two copies including one I bought at Cherokee in Hollywood a few years after the book appeared on the stands.  Congrats on owning an ultra HG book.  I still have fun reading my "Cherokee copy" about a nice Fine or Fine +.  If the book wasn't so expensive in ultra HG, I would buy one.    I just took out my CC comics.  I love the "in house ad" on the back cover promoting the first Batman Annual and Superman Annual 3.  What i really love about this book, though, is the super large DC logo in the Top Left corner.  That is so cool. And of course the pink and yellow color combination at the top of the book.  You're  right--DC surely went all out to promote this book.  Betcha DC sold a lot of copies.  Even at 25 cents this book was a bargain.  Wonder what the sales figures were.
