2x0277 LOT OF 8 DETECTIVE COMICS COMIC BOOKS 1960s Batman, Robin, The Joker's Last Laugh & more!

Date Sold 9/4/2022
Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price.

a lot of 8 comic books from Detective Comics, the most famous comic book from DC Comics, along with Action Comics (the name "DC" comes from Detective Comics). Detective Comics #1 was published in March 1937, and Action Comics was not published until June 1938, but Superman appeared in Action Comics #1, and Batman did not make his debut until Detective Comics #27, which was not published until March 1939, so while Superman predated Batman, Detective Comics predated Action Comics! Amazingly, Detective Comics is still being published, and there have been over 1,000 issues. It is of course most closely connected to Batman, who originated in Detective #27, and who debuted in his own comic, Batman #1 in March 1940. And in recent years, thanks to the many Batman movies, he has surely surpassed Superman as DC's #1 character! Note that the items in this lot are mostly from the 1960s. We do not provide a list of these items, but there are images of all of them.

Please note that we don't use a "comic guide" grading system, and OUR grading scale is completely different from standard comic book grading. Our "very good" is completely different from a comic book graded "very good". We provide images of the comic book covers, which should allow you to get a sense of the condition of the comics in this bulk lot.
Measurements: each measures approximately 6 3/4" x 10 1/4"

Condition: fair to good. All of comics were purchased in England and they have a circular English price stamp on the cover.
