Bidding brought that one home tonight...It always confuses me that this isn't apparently the same Black Knight everyone is all excited about for the upcoming movie...but still an amazing cover |

I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for. | drchaos private msg quote post Address this user | |
Saw a couple items I might have bid on but decided to hit the movie theater instead. Knives out was really good. Birds of Prey was meh. |

@EbaySeller @southerncross Glad to see shared interest in the Flash's Rogues Gallery! I just picked up these three towards my collection: 106 (First Grodd & Piper), 122 (First Top), and Showcase 14 (First Dr. Alchemy). Still need to track down a 105 (Mirror Master), 117 (Boomerang), and Showcase 8 (Captain Cold). |

@obrie2tm nice books. Love the showcase. Had a opportunity many years ago to pick up a copy but it was hammered not as nice as yours. With a drunken price and color touched up the wazoo. The search continues. Love to pick up a copy of 106. Even a low grader restored as that would fit nicely into my budget. Once again congrats mate |

If the viagra is working you should be well over a 9.8. | xkonk private msg quote post Address this user | |
I'm trying to be more responsible this year, so I semi-lowballed a bunch of listings in comiclink's January auction. Still managed to come out with this lady. |

@southerncross thanks! Been hunting for the showcase especially for some time. Only gets trickier moving in the direction towards that issue #4...way way down the road if lucky. If I come across a good deal on a 106 or upgrade my copy I'll be sure to let you know. | ||

@obrie2tm I've been following some Flash 122 for a while. Seems there's a lot of 5.0 and below under $100 and then it's over $200 for anything real nice. Can't commit to one to pull the trigger on. | ||

@EbaySeller It's odd isn't it? The higher grades just don't seem to come up very often. I imagine since it isn't a major character, but still has been tricky to find in a higher grade and I've also been looking for a while now. I got lucky and grabbed my copy for $65 off an eBay auction. I'm always working on my flash run so if I come across a nice copy I'll give you a heads up. | ||

Suck it up, buttercup!! | KatKomics private msg quote post Address this user | |
Not sure what's going on but the last few weeks I've picked up stuff from Heritage Auctions at or below FMV and below my max ##...even with their crazy fees taken into account!!! my 2 latest - have always loved the JLA 5!! Now that I think of it I could have used either of these books a week back for the 'falling for you' comic cover contest!! |

I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie. | flanders private msg quote post Address this user | |
@KatKomics nice wins! I've had no luck on heritage yet. These went for much higher than I expected just now: |

@KatKomics nice pick up on the JLA. I bid on that book early then jumped off when I saw a cool Duck book at my local. | ||

@KatKomics congrats. I've found that to happen less likely now days compared to say ten years ago. Just last week I picked up a low grade minor silver age Flash key for around 50% off overstreet price. At that point didn't even bothered to look up gocollect | ||

Won this one at a decent price and its the old school slab style that is likely a higher grade hiding in a lower grade slab....also likely never cleaned nor pressed either.... |

Never have too many copies of the first solo Zatanna story book, outside a regular title like supergirl, adventure or Justice league...plus a reprint of her origin story. |

I just won this book. Itβs not worth very much but it has a bunch of great signatures including Kevin Smith, Joe Quesada, Jimmy Palmiotti, Joe Jusko, and Jae Lee among others. Iβd love to get it in a CBCS red label but with 9 sigs but $145 just on signature verification would be steep! The book is a Dynamic Forces book, which Iβve had good luck with verification in the past. |

Finally caved and bought this last night. The good thing is that I got a great deal. The downside is that the the deal was so good that Iβm expecting a drop on GoCollect lol |

I live in RI and Rhode Islanders eat chili with beans. | esaravo private msg quote post Address this user | |
This one has been on my radar since before Christmas. So I set my alarm last night in case I fell asleep (I did) before this auction ended last night around 11:30 PM. Got it over $50 cheaper than the one on eBay. Just had to have it for the cover artwork (although her hands look a bit manly). Now I ask myself, do I "need" to get #1 to go with it? |
