Isn't anyone going to do anything about this? It is almost a year old. I also recently requested the addition and supplied the information with a cover scan.

What was your first comic?

JGMelville

I was sick with Chicken Pox and my aunt gave me a Scooby-Doo comic. Not sure of the publisher or issue #, but it was the mid-70's. I received a Brave and the Bold 142 (Aquaman) (https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/brave-and-the-bold-the/142/ybpvk) with no cover. I liked the story so much that I had to get a version of 142 with a cover to see what the cover looked like. That's where I caught the fever, and as I got out of school and got my first job, I was into collecting. Batman, Detecitive, Brave and the Bold, World's Finest. I still collect Batman and Detective 40 years later.

Top 10 Joker Stories

My favorite Joker story is difficult because so many are good. Perhaps the best story line is the Laughing Fish/Sign of the Joker story line in Detective comics 475 and 476, but my all-time favorite Joker cover is the first comic book I received with the Joker, Batman 321 (https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/batman/321/xcuyb).

We will work on that and change the link.

That link you gave is not the one I'm asking about, it's https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/editprofile.aspx which is the FORUM profile. I want to edit my forum profile to add my homepage link is all. Can't do it cuz only a blank page comes up, has for a long time, so please either fix it so we can edit, or add a homepage field to our main CPG profile page, or remove the edit link. Screenshot attached of (part) of my forum profile page with the big edit button and homepage field circled. Thanks.

Duplicate comic? Detective Comics #27, Batman Day

JGMelville
JGMelville
Is the comic referenced twice (inserted below) the same book? Detective Comics #27, vol 2, has a variant listed "27-BATDY". There is also an entry for the Detective Comics 27 Special Edition #1 for Batman Day.

It matters because the value listed for both both books, even though they look like the same book, are completely different and I need to make sure my collection reflects the proper book. If they are the same, then the database needs to be corrected.

Detective Comics #27, vol 2, (27-BATDY) https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/detective-comics/27-BATDY/pkrwcuw

Detective Comics #27 Special Edition (Batman 75 Day Comic 2014) #1 https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/detective-comics-27-special-edition-batman-75-day-comic-2014/1/pjpvkpy

Please advise...

Thanks!

Detective Comics 363 undervalued

JGMelville

I have a collection of Batman and Detective Comics and going back to the early 1960's. I have noticed that many issues are more expensive than listed here in CPG and in the Overstreet guide.
For example, Detective Comics #363 is the second appearance of Batgirl. CPG lists the value of a VG raw copy in the $10 range, but it is sold for $60+ on Ebay.


Could you look into the actual values of that book and adjust if necessary?


Thanks.

You guys put my collection to shame. I am also DC over the others. Mostly Batman and Detective, but mine are complete only from the the early-mid 60's. Same with my Brave and the Bold and World's Finest Comics collections, both complete from the early 60's.

My first goal was to get complete collections of my 4 major DC titles from my birthday up. I need 3 batman issues (182, 185, 188) to do so. One day I'd like to get everything from January 1960 up for my 4 big DC titles...one day.

Some of the highlights of my collection are Detective 359 (first Batgirl), Batman 232 (first Ra's), Brave & Bold 54 (first Teen Titans), Green Lantern 59 (first Guy Gardner), and Tomb of Dracula 10 (first Blade).

Have a great Holiday season and 2021.

I understand that the Display Case shows 40 of the most valuable comic scans in your collection, but is there a way to see all of the scans you have uploaded? Or perhaps provide the option to expand the display case to 50 or 100?
