Owner's Description

Ebay auction?!?? win - May 2021. Quite frankly, an ebay auction was the last place I thought I would find one of the three (then) highest graded copies on the CGC census, and yet, here we are. This was the last book I needed to complete my Brave and the Bold #1-24 mini-run!!! Ultimately, once I made the decision to complete this mini-run, it took me almost SIX years to get to this point. You can do it faster than I did, but I was trying to hold out for copies at the upper end of the census rather than just filling the holes as quickly as possible.

However, this copy represents another one of my books to have been supplanted from the top of the census in the June 2021-22 period as there is now a 9.0!!! on the census. I guess this makes my book tied with two others for second highest graded on the census as of June 2022.

Back to B&B#6...the was the LAST appearance of the Golden Gladiator in the series, having previously appeared in issues #1-4. The character wouldn't be seen again until DC Special #12 in June 1971...and that was a reprint of his B&B#1 story. It wouldn't be until All Star Squadron #54 in February 1986 that the character would appear in a new story. Of course, that appearance was not much more than a cameo as it was a Crisis storyline which involved upwards of fifty DC characters.

Also included in this issue were stories on Robin Hood and the Silent Knight (whom appeared on this issue's cover). The late, great Irv Novick (1916-2004) penned the cover (as he always did on these early issues).
