Bought myself 2 birthday presents , and a little mini mate to sit on my poker chips.

 

 

 

Love your Flash books. The Flash Annual is one of my favorite DC Annuals and one of the most difficult to find. IMHO it's a very underrated issues. I've had a raw copy since the 1980s and I prefer to keep it way to read the great stories all collected in a single annual.

Congrats!!s

Geez, seems like I'm the only person that :bump:s this thread

Bought with Bday Money and gift cards for myself

Great looking copy. I have an 8.0 as well of 122. I've been picking up some of the 300's recently. It is a waiting game to find nice deals on copies in the low 100's. I'll be working hard on my registry set this year, so I'll be sure to bump the thread so you don't feel alone.

I just picked up a FL 112 and 113 to go along with my FL 110. Very cool books.

At SDCC last month, I saw numerous copies of FL 106, mostly raw, mostly low grade (the highest was a CGC 5.5). Prices were way to steep so I didn't pick one up, and they seemed to be just sitting there.

A few pick ups from the last few VCC

And some more

Promise these are the last ones

Very nice books

I was watching this 8.0 on eBay, when I just happened to check out mycomicshop and saw the book much cheaper. Had the extra money so decided to buy it

After checking again, I realized that I have a 9.0 122 Time to get an updated contact lens prescription.

*sigh*... I don't have a 122 yet. I'm going to hate all the people seeking out this book because of the tv announcement, and thinking the Top's power is to make people dizzy...

And some more

 

 

The 145 is such a great artist cover

Great books guys! I'm new to dc silver, but Flash is the dc sa hero I like most. I wanted to buy some in the low 100s and almost all the issues my LCS had were SUPER faded. Is this a fluke thing? A common thing with flash comics? Or a SA dc issue?

Thanks for sharing!

Most were read back then and often outside in the light so the reason for fading.Not really a DC problem often common with a lot of books from the early days of collecting as a kid

Yes the are tough

I got my first Silver Age Flash!

My favorite DC hero

My favorite DC hero

Same here. WTTC!

I got my first Silver Age Flash!

 

Probably the best one to get first

I've been looking forward to reading some Flash.

Having always respected the character, I somehow never bought any.

The only Flash I read were there stories from a DC digest I was given in 1980 when I was 6.

I remember being frightened by some rock creatures, and loving the back cover.

I assume these stories were reprints. Anyone know which issues?

Anyways I just read Showcase #4 and thought it was a great 1st appearance/origin issue!

I can't wait to read Showcase #8. (After I recover from the #4 purchase..)

Starts with a great splash page! It gets right to it!

I don't remember them getting back to the guys finding him on radar. Maybe they figured it was Superman. I can't wait to read the one where the two Flash's meet!

Silly. I've never seen milk in a container like that.

Awesome panel!
