the blob Posted Wednesday at 04:48 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 04:48 PM OK, same idea as the last thread. Dunno what the CA equivalent of Bats 227 or 251 are. Maybe Batman 423? Jayman posted this one in Bronze and it is definitely up there as a desireable book because of the cover long after anyone cared about this sort of cross-over, which sed to be a big deal: Jasonmorris1000000 and maidenmate91 2 Link to post Share on other sites
the blob Posted Wednesday at 05:04 PM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 05:04 PM This book has bounced around. It was worth something in the early 90s, and I have been able to sell it for a little bit of a premium over the years in nice shape ($7-$10), but I see a bunch of low price sales recently, so I guess folks don't care anymore. I love this cover and buy it when I see it. I may have 10 copies. John R, maidenmate91 and 500Club 3 Link to post Share on other sites

I'm here, I finally broke down and bought Next Men #21 but not too many thread findings on my radar to post up. Still, I haven't bought too many for this thread either that I can vouch should be crazy status Jasonmorris1000000 1 Link to post Share on other sites
the blob Posted Wednesday at 07:49 PM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 07:49 PM I'm not using my own scans necessarily. Mike Zeck might be half of these covers, Link to post Share on other sites
Broke as a Joke Posted Wednesday at 08:10 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 08:10 PM So many covers...but to continue on the Cap Zeck theme, Cap 284, 287, 321 and 332. Link to post Share on other sites
Number 6 Posted Wednesday at 11:26 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 11:26 PM This is the second part of a 2-part story (as typical of the period) but I’m sure most people are interested in this issue alone for it’s cover. Certainly much more atmospheric than the cover to the first part and kind of a nice throwback to the early Bronze Bat books. Readcomix and Jasonmorris1000000 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I am perplexed by why that one does not garner more interest $-wise as it is the standout Batman cover for that little period. I look it up every couple of years to see if the market has finally appreciated it and then I see a bunch of $3 sales. If the shrunken head had a nice rack or something then maybe the market would care. Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t know but if I had to venture a guess it might be due to the fact that this one of the issues that got reprinted in those multi-packs around the time of the first movie, perhaps creating a perception that there’s a glut of them out there.

Never a shortage of them, true. There's a first print newsstand and direct. And then I see a 2d print listed. And then I see a different one from the multipacks listed as a second print that has a different UPC box and a different back cover. And then I see something listed as a Mervyn's 4th print, that looks identical on the outside to the regular 2d print. Was there a second print newsstand? Any other prints of this issue? I apologize if this was the topic of a thread already. Clearly it was popular when it came out with all these extra prints! So I went to Mile High because they are good about listing all the prints and they have the direct edition 1st print at $48 in NM and 2d print at $45 in VF! hah!!! higher than a slabbed 9.6 goes for.
