Welcome to my gallery of classic comic covers. I've been collecting comic books for over 25 years and made this web site to share some of my favorite covers. All of the covers, with a very few exceptions, are (or were) from my personal collection. Have a question or a comment? E-mail me, my name's Ben.

Detective #27 = CGC 8.0 = Over $1 million

Thursday, February 25th, 2010

A CGC graded copy of Detective #27 (first appearance of Batman) just sold at auction for $1,075,000!!

I’m not sure that whoever bought it got a good deal. I think the Action #1 is rarer and more historically significant.

Web site status update

Friday, February 12th, 2010

Hello everyone. I’ve FINALLY updated the individual comic background color codes, which indicate if a comic has been sold, is for sale, or is not for sale. Many comics have been sold, but I am keeping several, and a few are still for sale.
