Picked up an Adventures Of Superman 498 4th print in a dollar bin today, there haven't been any on ebay in months. No clue what the price range is on that one

 

Try finding the DC Universe UPC editions of books from this time period. They are impossible to find and are often pretty beat up.

 

:whistle:

 

I never realized that Chuck and MileHigh comics were so far ahead of the curve with the "DC Universe" books. The prices on their normal books is crazy, the prices on their newsstand copies are beyond ridiculous, and the prices for the "DCU" books is waaaayyyy out there. Yet, I bet they would only pay a nickle a piece for a NM+ copy. lol

 

I agree that the mile high prices are insane. As far as the upc DC Universe editions they are very very hard to find. I have been collecting them for a few years and I can say I have never found a NM copy of any issue other than Flash 92 ( first Impulse ). There are a lot of key issues that have the DC Universe upc which makes them fun to hunt for.

 

PM RMA, I'm pretty sure he could get you a few long boxes full of them.

The sealed two-pack should have given the whole DCU thing away.

 

The books are not direct or newstand editions. They use to put newstand editions in these multipacks but casheirs kept ringing up the single comics and not the UPC for the pack, causing confusion. The DCU upc's were made to fix this issue.

 

Am I close?

Close...not quite the whole story...but very close. That was for the Whitman 3-packs from the late 70's. But these are definitely the grandchildren of that program....there's more to it, but you're off to a good start. ;)
