Best in grade: Zip #20

Best in value: MMC #46

Best in sentimental value: Catman #28

These books are just stunning man!!! I know you have multiple copies of the Catman what’s the story again behind the sentimental value curious minds want to know!! Great book. That Zip and MMC are just insane though!!

This my best signed book ( i only have 2, lol!) Still, I've received some incredible offers on it and I've turned them down. One offer was high enough that it made me go  but my wife said absolutely no way! Surprised me but she was there when I got it signed and she really liked Stan Lee during our interaction. Somewhere I have a picture of us and Stan Lee where he has his arm around my wife's waist and I'm the third-wheel!

Never get tired of that one Gino! The skull “noise maker” is also a nice touch. I don’t think I have ever seen a copy for sale, ever...

Noise maker or 3 ball flail made from a skull? Hard to tell, but an absolutely amazing cover regardless!

The offer was truly jaw dropping and I had the book halfway in the box before my wife said, "No!" Fortunately, I had told the perspective buyer that I had to get my wife's permission to sell so he was disappointed but I did not have to renege on a deal. She is special and I feel blessed everyday to have married her.

When the Gerber Guide came out I saw the Catman #28 in there, it was cool but the colors seem dull & muted.  When I saw a copy first hand and saw how TRULY awesome the cover colors were I was hooked!  I also chased the MH copy for about 20 years! In college I spent about 22-26 hours recreating the cover with india ink.  I guess those 3 things make it memorable to me.

Science 2 got what it takes even without the Bourbon

It's not my favorite Sensation cover, but I'm sentimental about the fact that it's an Okajima camp book AND  a Wonder Woman.

I have too many favorites, but the ones I'd hate to part with are books I bought from or got as  gifts from friends.

Great backstory Sharon and a lovely copy to boot...

I loved this thread so much, I got excited and posted My fave in the wrong thread.

So I’ll try again here with an unenhanced photo from My IPad.

I picked this as my new fave based on it’s remarkable breakout this past year.

Mask 1 and 2 are just an explosion of color and creative work by Cole.Both have been treasured by me for sometime but i still can't commit to one favorite at this point.The value they gathered is just the demand the classic covers are having at this time in all genres.

Both good reasons. A pretty book Sharon! I rarely see any Wonder Woman Okajimas. Might be the first one.

Pretty copy! Although classic and seemingly VERY popular right now, not MY favorite cover in my collection. In fact, personally I like #2 a little better.

Can’t argue that point - they are both awesome covers.   But I kinda like the “moth to the flame” theme on # 1...

A lot of discussion which PL cover is the best but this is my favorite which makes it 'my' best (at least today). The BB is my 'runner up' (I love Jack Kamen art). 

[D84]

Gotta go with this one.  It's my Personal favorite splash page from the pre-Robin run.

All great books!
