Multi-tier analytical consensus distinguishing public truth, firm posture, desk urgency, and personal exposure
The birth of superheroes. Superman, Batman, Captain America, and Wonder Woman debut. Comics became a mass medium.
Extreme scarcity drives value. Condition sensitivity is paramount — even low-grade copies of key issues command five figures.
A pricing discrepancy between an auction listing and the prevailing cleared consensus value across organized exchanges, allowing rapid liquidity capture before market equilibrium reconverges.
In order to secure the funds required for an enormous matching grant ($50,000!) for James College, the mild-mannered Professor Million puts his prodigious perspicacity to work on devising profitable crimes. He hires a crew of thugs, robs a bank, then immediately returns to the same neighborhood to rob a brokerage. They clash with Green Arrow and Speedy, and one disobedient lieutenant, Horse, tries to murder them both. Professor Million returns to the scene and saves the archers' lives, and an uneasy truce is made. After tricking the gang's new leader into a an ambush and busting the gang, Green Arrow and Speedy advise Professor Million that the rewards outstanding on his own hirelings would total to the $50,000 he needs; Green Arrow bargains with the professor: he can claim the reward in exchange for returning the gang's loot and going straight.
