Great SA collection. I also believe in the old saying that having a Low grade is better than No grade. I assume by now your Hulk #1 must have arrived too. Congrats on securing. That's been my unattainable goal for years on a reasonably priced low grade. At this point with rising prices, I'll probably stop hunting for Hulk soon...do you have a vid showing it yet? 😀👍
👍Brave and Bold #28 isn't often mentioned in top ten lists which is inexcusable since without BB#28 the Marvel Age of Comics may never have come into existence. As the story goes Martin Goodman (Marvel publisher) was golfing with I believe it was Mort Weisinger or one of the DC editors, I'm sure someone will identify the party in question, and the DC individual remarked to Goodman how well JLA was selling and Goodman who was known for jumping on the current hot $elling genre comic book trend wasted no time in telling Stan Lee to create a team book and FF#1 was the historic result. On a recent episode of Comic Book Historian video interview with Ken Quattro , Mr Quattro made an interesting point about how Showcase #4 shouldn't be heralded as the start of the Silver Age due to the fact that even with a redesigned modernized Flash the comic book industry wasn't flooded with super hero revivals, that really didn't occur until Spider-Man appeared in 1962. The Silver Age -Marvel Age is how the 60s decade should be identified because every publisher in the market wanted to ca$h in on Marvel's $ucce$$ thereby creating a flood of super hero titles that crowded the spinner racks and display shelves at that time. I know the argument regarding the first Silver Age appearance of Captain America is between Avengers #4 and the earlier Strange Tales #114 but the fact remains that although a criminal is masquerading as Cap in the story the cover presents itself as a revival of Cap, a reader at that time would see it that way and my vote goes with how I would have accredited the cover regardless of the story's conclusion, if I had been that reader in real time. As you can see I enjoyed the show 👍
I love your comments. I learn a lot from them. I'm really into history so this was very cool to learn. I actually got both Avengers #4 and Strange Tales #114. I was trying to make sure to get the first Silver age appearance many months ago. There are a lot of these types of controversies in comics. I still believe Hulk 180 is the 1st appearance of Wolverine. But I understand the argument for why it is considered a cameo. Strangely Marvel itself referred to it as the first appearance.
@@ComicCollectorGeek Always glad to share whatever information I learned over time that may be of interest to enthusiastic collectors, like yourself, who enjoy the content of the material and not just a books market value. I 100% agree with you about Hulk #180 , a first appearance means just that -- a first appearance -- regardless if the character is partially in shadows or if the character occupies a single panel within a story. The character was first introduced at that moment as a participating player in the narrative unfolding. If the character was only referred to but unseen than that would justify dismissal of a first appearance. A continuation of that narrative with the character now fully identified is the second appearance of some one who had just debuted in the previous issue. 🤔 Maybe copies of #180 are scarcer to find and many dealers stocked up on # 181s so to be stubborn about it so they insist Wolverine was a figment of fandoms imagination prior to #181 even though as you've stated Marvel itself designates #180 as Wolverine's completely fresh and unmistakable active presence in the Marvel Universe.

For my money, there's not a better era.
I really liked the silver age too. It was the era where superhero comics become the dominate theme.
My nigga!!
Ff5?
It was not on the list at the time of filming.
@@ComicCollectorGeek Where do u think it’d be on the list now?
