adamstrange Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I'm wondering whether the proper title for this thread isn't "GA Books That Will Shortly Not Fly Under the Radar." sacentaur and rjpb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tabcom Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I don't mind sharing my speculation. Because I'm probably wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjpb Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Fawcett westerns with photo-covers. I think you all should be chasing those down and putting your money there. All this other stuff is heading for a fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacentaur Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 With my copy now at CGC, I'm reminded that Top-Notch 22 is a rare book (just one copy currently on the census and I believe it's the Church) that has the first appearance of Archie in a full-page ad. Anyone here have a copy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I think the series is still a bargain for some of its covers. Maybe it'll just sit where it's at interest wise but I won't be shocked if copies of 17,18, and 19 run up in the future. 19 is still probably one of the better known PCH classic covers. Funny, after being new to comic collecting and VERY new to GA collecting, I simply stumbled upon some late run Venus books last year and got lucky. Now do I hang onto them or sell??!
