lhcomics Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I got this late last year and just got it back from grading recently. Really happy to have it. Bought the collection (through a comic shop owner) from a man whose father had bought all the comics as a child in the Kansas City area. I did read it before sending it off and the story is pretty charming, but Batman being lost on a country road and asking for directions in full uniform? Pretty sure I would not have answered the door! Very nice! Congrats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure I would not have answered the door! Being able to buy an OO copy is always fun. Very nice looking 3.5. Yes, another one graded from the fall of 2016 that appears nice relative to its designated grade. I wonder what his 2.5 graded copy of Detective 18 looks like since it was also graded on the same day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ender Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Dang, and I thought Batman was the world's greatest detective! Here is the 18 but I do realize that it does not specifically belong in this thread but since you asked about it hope it won't offend anyone if I put it in here.

Besides the large obvious stain on the front cover, is that also a rusty bottom staple on the spine along with a spine roll there? Now finally, that cover looks a lot more in line to its assigned grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice 18 and even nicer July 11 arrival date penciled at top. What other GA was in this Kansas City collection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been a good number of coverless copies floating around. Yes and it was a nice presenting FRONT cover only. Your certainly not going to slab it as a married .5 are you.... Parts really seem to sell well and i guess if the buy in on this book is 6-8k then 2k for the best pary is mire affordable. James G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
