Your Top Ten Most Wanted Comics on DCM
OtherEric:
I still want the missing Peter Wheat material, Kelly issues in particular. But hope is fading on those these days; a VG-FN copy on eBay is currently at $125 and that's my threshold on the book right now. For what it's worth, that's about somewhere around 5x guide...

The one book I'd like to see on this site is Fawcett's All-Hero Comics from 1943. It was a 100-page 15 cents book that only lasted one issue. The problem was timing. It was intended as a companion to their America's Greatest. But the wartime paper shortage killed it. Pity. Anyone have a copy they can upload?

I posted this on the Public Domain Super Heroes site http://pdsh.wikia.com/wiki/Green_Giant :
--- Quote ---According to the Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide (2000), Green Giant Comics #1 was an experiment to determine if the company could profitably manufacture and distribute comics with their otherwise idle printing presses. The Moreau Publishing company believes the book was never released to news stands.
