You probably got it cheap because you are only one of only a few people who would want it. I get that happen to me all the time because my interests are way more far reaching than most other collectors.

I really do appreciate the fact that most collectors are asleep when it comes to DC crime... :D  Just think, when and if they ever wake up we will be zillionaires...

More you than me. I don't have many. They are a little "tame" for me. Other than the ones with big covers, crime still is pretty much under the radar.

I said "most". That one is an exception to the rule. My favorite cover of the run and I actually have a pretty nice copy of it. And, I had to pay a little more than a 10 spot for mine.

I looked and couldn't find a thread dedicated to these underlooked books. I thought maybe us criminals needed a thread for our selves and let the long underwear crowd have their thread back. Here are the ones I posted there plus a few more gems. Show 'em if you got 'em!
