Some great books being posted in this thread, but the Church copy of DD 1 somehow really calls out to me. 

 

Fantastic book.  I just picked up a copy of this one myself, but it pales in comparison to the Church copy.  Nice!

At one point today the thread disappeared.  Weird.  Thanks for pb help!  Here are my fav 5 because of how I felt when I acquired them.

No, no.  It's the Gino passing out in bed part that interests me. :)

But I do love your top 5! The Tec 13 and A-Man 8 are really sweet copies.

This is one because it set the table for all superhero groups to come.

This is one because it blazed a trail for kid sidekicks for decades.

Detective Comics 27, Detective Comics 31, Batman 1, Action Comics 7, Captain America 1.

Tough to pick.
