This group features a strong selection of Silver Age DC Comics including key 12¢ era issues and an increasingly desirable 80-Page Giant Batman.

The standout book in the collection is Batman 80-Page Giant #24 (No. 182, Aug., 25¢ issue) featuring classic “Rainbow Batman” and Joker Batman cover imagery. The 80-Page Giant format is a premium Silver Age issue and remains highly sought after by Batman collectors.

Also included are multiple Action Comics and Superman 12¢ era issues from the 1960s, along with Superboy and additional Silver Age DC titles. Several early Silver Age covers are present, including Kryptonite-themed and classic Superman battle covers that remain popular with collectors.

Condition varies throughout the group, with visible edge wear, spine stress, corner rounding and general handling consistent with age. No professional grading has been performed. Please review photos carefully for condition assessment.

This is a solid collector’s group with strong eye appeal and multiple desirable Silver Age DC keys, anchored by the Batman 80-Page Giant issue.
