Set Description
After compiling and maintaining/upgrading a top level full run of Justice League of America throughout the 2010's, I started to switch my focus to a different title, the Brave and the Bold.
I chose this title because in my efforts to complete a JLA run, I also had acquired the first three appearances of the Justice League of America in Brave and the Bold #28, 29 & 30. This seemed like a good starting point and when it became harder and harder (and take longer and longer) to fill the holes in my JLA collection or upgrade issues I already had, I started to look at Brave and the Bold "on the side".
This led to me, at first, filling out a lot of the run on the later issues. But as time progressed, I started filling earlier issues and the run started to take shape.
As I write this in April 2021, I'm still SEVENTEEN issues from having a complete CGC certified Brave and the Bold run. I continue to look for upgrades on issues I already have and I continue to keep monitoring for those books I still have not acquired. I'm trying to be more patient in filling the holes in my collection - I know that there is no point in buying a 6.5 of any given issue I don't have because I'll just upgrade it given the chance anyway. The less upgrades one has to do, the lower the risk of spending more money than you need to. To date, I've managed to accumulate a current thirteen SINGLE HIGHEST GRADED issues and another one hundred and fifteen issues tied for HIGHEST GRADED.
Revision: May 2021 - After acquiring B&B#6 (and completing my B&B #1-24 mini run), I'm now left with SIXTEEN issues to complete the entire run in CGC certified copies. As this new acquisition was tied with two others for highest graded, that puts the tally at one hundred and sixteen books that I own that are tied for highest graded.
If you are reading this and can help me in my quest to complete my B&B run, please pm me.
Thanks and enjoy the collection!
