So, for the people who ask where these come from, here are some answers.

 

Here are the sealed packs I have picked up, in addition to the loose books I have.

 

And the other picture is the packs I have bought that were either not sealed, like the Fall of Metropolis set, or I opened them to get to the books.

 

As a completionist I will attempt to find every DC Universe book as a single, but I also want to find as many different packs as I can find.

What comic is on the other side of the Robin 15 2-pack?  Is it a DCU?

AND GONE.  That was quick!  Interesting because I bought The Death of Superman 16-pack, which is basically this Doomsday! set and another one shrink-wrapped together.  Mine only had 1 DCU in the Doomsday! pack: MOS 18.  There is another post somewhere on CGC that suggests there was variation in which printings were included.  The guy opened four of them.  Three had the same contents but the fourth was different.

Yes, I picked them up. Saw your post at like 4 am and put my insomnia to good use! I need upgrades on all but the MOS #18 so I was happy to get it.

Someone got a deal on that JLA #69. None of these Doomsday tie-ins are easy to find, or cheap when you do.

LOL...

Well, it was listed appropriately in Collectibles>Comics>Copper Age (1984-1991)>Superhero>Batman, right?  And no need to put "DC Universe" in the title of the listing (shrug)

I never bother searching "DC Universe" as a search term on eBay. It brings up way too many action figures and statues, and very few comics. Plus, if that phrase is in the title the seller inevitably wants $25 for a $6 book. No thanks.

agree.  I have a specialized method of ebay searches that served me well before these got more popular (I'd like to believe I played a part in that), but obviously its proprietary and I can't share, lest someone else buy the ones I want.  Although judging from some of the ones posted here and in other threads that I've missed, my algorithm might be faulty or obsolete.

In the past few years eBay searches have seemed weird to me. They don't capture everything, or at least it seems like they don't. They go out of their way to "suggest" related items or whatever, and then they don't show me everything I ask for using a set of search terms. Very frustrating.
