Really? What do you think is the most valuable comic? At the moment, my money would be on one of the Promise Phantom Ladys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Startling 49 could do well also, but probably less than the PL 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll see. *Many* of the Billy Wrights sold for less the second (and third) times they were offered. Granted, no guarantee which books from this collection will re-sell over the next three years vs. disappear for 10-20 years, but the longer I've been in this hobby, the more I've realized "a lifetime" actually equates to "10 years."

But those Xela airbrush books seem to be out there in grade, and seem to be present in every HG collection. I think that will keep the price down, many people who want one in HG already have one.

Rip Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 The tec 140 should do crazy well. What's amazing is the AA61 isn't the highest graded copy. I think the PL 17 and 23 bidding wars will be brutal. A Timely or two might also blow a few minds and crack 100K. Hmm nobody talk about those Speed comics yet? greggy and Daveb25 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment, my money would be on one of the Promise Phantom Ladys. Action 1 CGC 5.5 (conserved) - the conservation is ""Conservation includes: cover cleaned, cover reinforced, staples replaced." I think it presents nicely. The only bothersome things are (1) it looks like some rust might have been scraped off from around the staple area which caused paper loss in that area and (2) the cover cleaning method is not specified (might have stripped the gloss). Cover reinforcement (if reversible as is very likely the case) and staple replacement are non-factors. It's probably a $500K+ comic, and I'm not seeing anything in the Promise Collection of that magnitude yet. What's the record for a conserved copy?
