Sam I am Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 You almost never see this book in this shape. Most of the ones for sale are rags. This is the best early Showcase cover in my opinion, with the possible exception of Showcase 3. Showcase guys want it. Challengers guys want it. Octopus guys want it. Seems like a monster to me! :shrug: +1 I don't know who has the 9.4, but I own the 9.2. This 9.0 copy is the best copy to come to market in quite a while. I expect the octopus guys to be all over it!

Sam I am Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 After finally getting back my submitted 103, which was 9.6 I finally have a 100% full CGC graded run in 5.0 or better. Yay me! Shameless plug- I'm also selling some of my accumulated undercopies tomorrow in the SA sales thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congratulations Sam ! Shameless plug- I'm also selling some of my accumulated undercopies tomorrow in the SA sales thread. Can be good news for Showcase collectors. Too bad, I have dropped collecting comig books since last year. There must be great things in your undercopies ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hepcat Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 (edited) Sadly I can`t manage any older than Showcase 24 in this thread: One of these years I hope I hope to manage to get an early Challengers of the Unknown or Space Ranger issue....

Sam I am Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 This was a sweet copy with nice PQ. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Showcase-22-CGC-Universal-Grade-6-0-FN-/262884714329?hash=item3d35266759:g:D4wAAOSw~AVYutx- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
entalmighty1 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I only have one early Challengers. Would love to find a 12 in the same quality, but they're few and far between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
