The Book:

FANTASTIC FOUR #45 CGC NM (9.4) WHITE—WHITE MTN PED.

Is this another opportunity for me to offer big $$ for any White Mountain Daredevils? Yes it is. I love White Mountain books.

Michael Turner Witchblade 13 pg 17 Original Art Aspen

For some folks this was a defining run in the 1990s.

Marvel Team-up #128 Title Page Spider-Man Original Art

I just dig this image. Very cool.

Sam Kieth – Original Art for Marvel Comics Presents #92

This run was a big deal back in the day. It's not for everyone but I'm a fan of the art on this series.

TRAVIS!

All Star Comics #3 CGC 6.0 Universal Unrestored Sold For:$10,500.00 Seller: blckthought80 (61)

The Book:

Jimmy Cheung – New Avengers #42 pg 15 FULL PAGE SPLASH

That's a ridiculous splash page right there. Jimmy Cheung is great and everything he's got is going into that splash.

AMAZING MAN #5 "1939". PGX 8.0 (R) NICE! Noted as RARE.

Cool, book. Someone buy it and get it out of that PGX holder.

STRANGE ADVENTURES #1 1950 Photo Cvr Atomic Bomb O/W

I'm a sucker for this book. You know this.

ORIGINAL ART Gene Colan DAREDEVIL Black Widow 1979

What a great page. From near the end of Colan's run on the book this page still shows everything Colan could bring to a page. What a great talent.

BPRD 1946 HELLBOY Original Cover Art by Mike Mignola

I'm always going to post a nice Mignola page. I'm a sucker for his work.

VIRGIL FINLAY ORIGINAL, SIGNED (Amazing Stories) VG

If you're not familiar with Finlay, get familiar. You'll be glad that you did.

Whiz Comics #2 (#1) cgc 6.0 un-restored !

It's not the book it once was, but it's still a crazy book to see on eBay.

BATMAN 617 PAGE 18 BY JIM LEE AND SCOTT WILLIAMS!

A memorable page from one of the most memorable Batman runs of the past 10 years.

BLOOD IS THE HARVEST CGC 5.0 Anti-Communist 1950

How often has this book shown up on eBay?

STRANGE ADVENTURES #2 CGC 8.5 DC Comics 1950

Not that this is the most hotly collected title, but this is another book you don't see all that often.

Twin Cities Books

The Atom #3 Twin Cities pedigree (DC, 1962) CGC NM 9.4

If you've read any of these you know of my affinity for green covers.

Wonder Woman #178 Twin Cities pedigree (DC, 1968) CGC NM+ 9.6

Green psychedelic covers? Where do those sit on my personal scale? Pretty damn high.

The Avengers #57 Twin Cities pedigree (Marvel, 1968) CGC NM/MT 9.8

I'm cool with this book. It's got a lot going for it. The Vision is a cool character (he's one of "my" Avengers,) the Spectre homage is cool and who doesn't love the Avengers?

Batman #200 Twin Cities pedigree (DC, 1968) CGC NM/MT 9.8

This is a dopey cover AND I LOVE IT.

Batman #227 Twin Cities pedigree (DC, 1970) CGC NM/MT 9.8

This is the complete opposite of a dopey cover. CLEARLY.

Silver Age

Action Comics #252 (DC, 1959) CGC VF/NM 9.0 Cream to off-white pages

A fun book to me.

Adventure Comics #247 (DC, 1958) CGC VF/NM 9.0 Off-white to white pages

I want this to be a hot book. I don't know why.

The Amazing Spider-Man #28 (Marvel, 1965) CGC NM+ 9.6 Off-white pages

What's the value here? We saw $15,000 for Pacific Coast 3-4 years ago. This book boggles my (non-Spider-Man collecting) mind.

The Amazing Spider-Man #50 (Marvel, 1967) CGC NM/MT 9.8 White pages

Here's a Spider-man book I'd actually want to own although at the price this will get, I'm not sure I'd want to pony up for this one.

Detective Comics #327 (DC, 1964) CGC NM/MT 9.8 White pages

Look at this thing:

The Flash #105 (DC, 1959) CGC NM 9.4

I don't know why I've never actively collected Flash books. I've always been focusing on something else I guess. Great book.

Showcase #4 The Flash – Bethlehem pedigree (DC, 1956) CGC VF/NM 9.0

There it is, one of my favorite books ever.

Stay tuned, hopefully I'll find time for Part 2 and 3 before this auction goes off.
