Joe, have you submitted the 9.6 copy to CGC for a Ewert check?

A CGC 9.4 copy of GL 76 sold on ebay in Oct. 2005 for $3782.00 as I recall. It was purchased by a board member. From all that I've been reading here, it sounds like he got a great deal after all! I also recall seeing otherworld's CGC 9.6 copy. Killer copy--needless to say!

I think people are just really starting to realize how important this book is in the grand scheme of things with Bronze Age books, start of the Bronze Age or not. One thing to note is that Neal Adams books have been continually rising in value and it seems his fans are everywhere and this book is the book with regards to his work.

The rarity factor Im sure also plays a factor. Whether its hard to believe or not this book seems to genuinely be hard to find in true NM condition and what I think is more of a truer test of a books long term value is once prices start going nuts on it do the higher grade copies show up for sale ?

I cant even remember when was the last time we saw a copy of this book in 9.4 for sale publically and I can personally attest that the prices on 9.4s are heading into the stratosphere even more so then the 9.0s. The art and story in the book are terrific and since we all know we comic people are " Cover guys " you really cant get better then this in any age of comics.




Adams Superman 233 is one other book that you will not find in high grade for sale anymore. I have the only high graded for sale in a long long time.........

When I was selling my 9.4, I couldn't give it away...so I kept it.

Gotta echo John's thoughts. Metro had a 9.4 for a loooong time that I eventually bought. I ended up selling it then at a slight loss. Book is definitely not that hard to find in HG, have owned several raw 9.2s, and a raw 9.4. Owned two raw 9.4s.

You will find that book quite frequently and demand is not as high as you'd think for such a cool cover. I know you have one for sale right now, but it's not as hot as you'd think.

I think all the people repeatedly crying about not getting a custom title should be inducted into the "Crybaby Crew", and forever carry that as their custom title!

Supes 233 was a hot book selling for multiples of guide several years ago when it was cheap and not so abundant in HG...now it's everywhere, and it's expensive.
