Publisher profile coming soon
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.
Plastic Man comes upon a gangster chasing a kid with soulful eyes, and tries to drown him with a bucket. Not standing for this, the hero forces the hood to drink gasoline. Chief Branner almost gives in to Bright Eyes' eyes to look into the case, but says this lies outside the FBI's jurisdiction...until someone reaches through the window and makes off with the boy, making it kidnapping, and thus a federal case. Meanwhile it turns out the boy's been targeted by a criminal calling himself the Sphinx. Who is running a criminal enterprise selling war orphans to desperate couples. Plastic Man and Woozy pose as an elderly couple to learn the Sphinx's racket, and manage to stop him from ordering his underlings to throw the orphans in the ocean to get rid of the evidence. However in fleeing the Sphinx falls right into a bear trap and has his throat crushed. The shock of seeing this breaks a muteness that'd been afflicting him. His father had been angered by the boy's soulful eyes, but the neighbors weren't willing to stand by and let child abuse slide, so they tarred and feathered his father and dumped in a swamp to die. That man was the Sphinx. As soon as Bright Eyes is done telling his story, he's surrounded by adoring beach bunnies.
