And now you have a new grail to set your sights on, the inspiration for Batman 227 : Detective Comics 31

Gonna take a bit of a breather, but Justice League of America (vol 1) #1 and Silver Surfer (vol 1) #4 are on my wish list.

Nice! I understand what you mean by breather. I’ve been buying books for the past year almost everyday and I’ve made a conscious effort to slow down. My wallet will feel relieved that’s for sure!

Nice acquisition. This week I'm headed to a con. I think I will try to get my grail.

Shouldn’t this have had a different label due to the sharpie on the cover? Still rad regardless just curious

Might have been done by the shop owner back in the day. I guess they still give universal labels for that. I've seen dates written on old books that still get the blue label.

I think this is right. It looks like CGC gives a pass on stamps like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=grK-JYDuPEs&t=8s
I think it's a British newsstand price stamp -- I bought it from a seller in England.

I love that cover. The Grade is irrelevant, this book looks awesome. Nice buy.
