SET DETAILS
Owner's Description
VERY NICE CGC 9.8 HIGH-GRADE EXAMPLE OF THE 1987 SUPERMAN # 1 REPRINT. 1987s ARE NOT EASY TO FIND IN HIGH-GRADE BECAUSE THERE ARE ONLY 11 COPIES GRADING 9.8. THAT NUMBER WOULD ACTUALLY INCREASE BECAUSE THERE ARE 2 MORE 1987 9.8 ISSUES IN THIS SET THAT ARE MISLABELED ON THE HOLDER, A 1983 AND 1988. THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE I SENT TO CGC AND WAS ONE OF THE COMICS THAT STARTED ME LOOKING FOR THE VARIANTS, SWIPES, & HOMAGE COVERS BECAUSE IT WAS THE FIRST COMIC I SENT TO CGC THAT RECEIVED A 9.8 GRADE.
THE 1987 ISSUE IS OFTEN MISTAKEN FOR THE 1983 BECAUSE THEY LOOK SO MUCH ALIKE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE REVERSE IMAGES. 1983 PEANUT BUTTER SUPERMAN REVERSE 1997 NESTLE QUICK BUNNY. THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE IS A 10c COVER PRICE I HAVE HEARD NUMEROUS TIMES OF A 50c 1987 COVER PRICE BUT NEVER HAVE SEEN ONE HONESTLY DONT THINK IT EXISTS AND IS MISTAKEN INFORMATION.
THERE IS ONLY ONE 1987 CGC GRADED 9.8 AS A SIGNATURE SERIES ON THE CENSUS. KEEPING AN EYE OUT FOR THAT COMIC IF IT EVER POPS UP FOR SALE. FEW 1987 COPIES ARE EVER FOR SALE ASKING PRICES ARE USUALLY IN THE $250+ RANGE. UNGRADED COMICS HAVE ALSO BECOME MORE DIFFICULT TO FIND AS MORE TIME GOES BY COLLECTORS ARE BUYING UP THE NICE ONES..
