29! by willybaum

[CSJournals-migration]

My DC Comics Bicentennial collection nears its completion!

 

Yay!

 

Finally scored a CGC comic (Unexpected #174) via auction for my collection of DC Comics Bicentennial set. Haven't seen any of my needed issues on auction for several years.

 

Out of 33 comics in the set, I was at 25 issues with 4 high-grade raw comics currently under grading by CGC so that gives me 29.

 

And I also picked up a high-grade raw copy of Claw #8.

 

Now I only need to find Our Fighting Forces #168 and Weird War Tales #47 in either high-grade raw or CGC and my primary collection will be complete: 33 comics, all CGC 9.0+ and none worse than off-white pages.

 

Can't wait to see what my four at CGC will achieve!

Nice cover for Unexpected, that's the first time I've seen this one. Good job on your set progress!

Very cool book! First time for me seeing it as well. Congrats on getting so close to completion. I know the feeling.

Mahalo guys!

 

BTW, my math skills seem to have deteriorated with age. It should be 30, not 29!

I really like this idea for a set...reminds me of bagofleas Marvel 25th Anniversary Covers set, or even my X-men the Missing Years set. Love seeing the different covers from various titles during the same time period all in one set with a common theme. To me that is much more fun that collecting 1-100 or whatever of all the same title.

 

Congrats on your recent addition and I'm sure it won't be long now until you've got the complete set!
