@gino2paulus2 you still own the Library of Congress copy?

I belive @buttock owns the Church copy. 

 

Not the Church, but a very nice 8.5.  IIRC the Church was not certified as of the Berk sale, but listed as a raw 8.5.

I was going nominate this one as well. I think bc it already has so many label notes due to the fact that the interior is just so darn cool as well. So many great splashes in this one not just the first beheading one its famous for and there is a double splash that is awesome too. 
Should just remove am the current notes and put 

Classic Bada$$ book from cover to cover 😂

I think this one deserves a nomination for Classic Cover designation. Sometimes referred to as a poor man’s Suspense 3. Classic busy Schomburg with depth and action.

one of the more glaring omissions.

Shadow Comics #86 (May 1948, Street and Smith). Art by Bob Powell.

The Challenger #1 (1945, Interfaith Publications). Art by E. C. Stoner.

Joe Kubert did interior art for this mag.  Some of his splash pages for other issues were pretty good.

Tip Top Comics #52 (August 1940, United Feature Syndicate). Art by Paul Berdanier.

Several early HIT Comics already suggested as worthy classic cover candidates.  

Recommending more seems overkill, but...

  

Spoiler

... Reed Crandall's cover for HIT Comics #18 shouldn't be a bridge too far.

Just discovered Crandall signed this one. Seems that he often didn’t sign his comic work, but it’s nice to have art for comparison for unsigned art.

Almost every one worthy of classic designation‼️‼️👍😷

Not sure if this one has it noted on the label on more recently slabbed copies but if not, it's also deserving imho. One of the longer held books in my collection. 

LOVE that book!  

I’ll stick my neck out and just say this book is cooler even than Hit 5, and a whole lot scarcer.
