This is one of those low pop. issues and was the hardest for me to find. There are only 25 graded copies with 1 at 9.9(this copy), 12 at 9.8, 6-9.6's, and 1 at 9.4, and 1 in 9.2 and there are also 4 SS copies.
Nice back cover with Tarzan taking on a foe and with two hits and a over the head body slam the story is concluded.

This is one of those low pop. comics with only 26 graded books. Considering it's the Spider-Man issue there has to be a lot of people looking for it.
There is one graded at 10.0 and 12 at 9.8's, 7 of them at 9.6, 2 at 9.4, and 2 at 9.2.There are 4 SS copies signed by J. Romita. This is one issue that I have 3 copies of at 9.8.
What's up with that cross hatching style for the webbing. Nice ape in the back ground too.
This Spider-Man issue has a script by Len Wein and art by John Romita Sr. Eight pages; full color. (Two pages are model assembly instructions.)Picked up at ComicLink.

Here's the Hulk issue with 66 graded copies. There is one 10.0 copy out there and a bunch of the other grades, 35-9.8, 22-9.6, 5-9.4, and 3 -9.2s of which one is mine, and a lone 8.5 copy.
I'll be looking to up-grade this to a 9.6 or better. Couldn't find one at any of the auction houses for a few years so I got this one from Metropolis of NY for $21. (Update- have a 9.8 on the way from ebay) Well my 9.8 is here and it was worth the wait. Looks great and was offered at a cost of $50 which is lower than any other one's I've seen offered any where.

Superman. 94 graded copies with lots of high grades. 5-10.0, 14-9.9, 57-9.8, 15-9.6s, 1 - 9.4, 1-9.2. There is also one issue graded 7.0 which I'm thinking was sent in by the owner of the model and this was the book that came with his model. Plenty to go around.

I kind of like this cover and really don't know why. There are 130 graded copies with 7-9.9, 84-9.8, and 34 in 9.6.There are four other in lower grades .
I'm happy with my 9.2 as it was my goal to get 1 of each not 1 of each in super high grade. On second thinking I'll most likely go for a high grade sometime. Okay, got that higher grade.(10/27/11) Purchased from My Comic Shop for $73.

Characters Superboy; Krypto; Zzerz
Synopsis Superboy and Krypto are playing in space, when grabbed by an energy beam and drawn to a spaceship. The commander, Zzerz, describes how a creature they had collected got exposed to radiation, and grew huge with destructive eye beams, escaping their ship. He asks Superboy to help recapture it, giving him a growth reversal ray gun. Superboy and Krypto meet up with the creature on a nearby planetoid, and start the reversal process, but the creature destroys the gun. Superboy then encases the creature in some rock that is impervious to the destructive rays, and returns it to the spaceship.

Here's another of the rare issues with only 21 graded copies. There are 2-9.9, 9-9.8, 8-9.6, and 2 in 9.2. I have a 9.2 to go along with this 9.6. I wish more of these comics would come up on eBay as I feel they have a good investment potential. I'm not an investor but I don't mind sticking a few bucks in these low pop. issues. Don't know what's going on here but check out the 2 diff. back covers on my copies. One has a yellow background and the other is all green. I've seen one other background and it was the all green kind so maybe the yellow is rare. And what's with those pink areas on the back cover. they seem out of place and should have words in them. Picked off from ComicLink for way to much money.

Lot's of Robin to go around. 116 copies to pick from.11 in 10.0, 29 in 9.9, 72 in 9.6, and then just a few in other grades. There seems to be raw copies of these around, Comic Connect, but most that I've seen seem to be a bit off color on the cover. This one is from a ComicConnect auction and cost me $83.
