Mystafo Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Always thought Weird Science #9 should go for more than it does in all but the highest grades...my absolute favorite Wally Wood cover.

THE DETAIL! So many just classic off the hook EC covers. The answer to your question is probably because they are about the most beloved books in comics. Most of them including this beauty are fairly common. I have owned all of them. Many up to 10 times. So many awesome Woody covers, this one is way up there on the list for me too.

Is this common consensus or has the book caught up to a more appropriate market value? For a long time it was held back by what a lot of collectors considered a lousy cover. The jokey superhero DC covers have typically sold at a significant discount. But the heating up of early Batman Tecs and the fact that -- like him or not -- Robin was a significant GA hero has caused prices to rise sharply the past few years.

I think the Schomburg covers are generally hard to find and a couple (#18 and #19) are truly classics. Larryw7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite as well. I have been chasing the original art for this cover for a few years but the present owner is pretty attached to it. originalisbest and Mystafo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Readcomix Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Also, I guess since this was my candidate for the most underrated GA cover thread, I ought to put it in under the radar too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTLarsen Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Not sure if we're counting U.K. comics, but pricewise the L. Miller Captain Marvels and Marvelmans are definitely under the radar. Readcomix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those two seem to go for about twice what the other Schomburg Hornets do at auction, so it would seem collectors concur with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFifthHorseman Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 How is Suspense Comics #1 Not hotter than it is?? Not saying that just because I have a copy, but I got mine for literally (figuratively) pennies It's got bondage. Nazi's. A devil looking guy! Blows my mind!

Being a highly-regarded expert on GA artists, I can say without hesitation that it is, indeed, Cole. Of course, beyond my expertise, there's his signature near the top of the rock in the lower left.
