#3 is spotty. It goes from $10 - 25 with the avg being around $15. The money books on Chew are 1, 2, 8. #3 and #4 suffer from having reprints.

I actually like Superman hooking up with Wonder Woman ever since Action Comics #600.

Or even with Big Barda.

Lois Lane acts like too much of a cuckold to Clark Kent.

He can do better.

All I can think of is the old joke about Superman having sex with WW, so I can't take this seriously.

Early issues of Chew seem to be doing well $3-10 in the $15 plus range. It does look like New X-men #128 has cooled down even in 9.8. Everyone got worked up when one went for $300, which even at the time was about $175 over the average. I do not think I sale anywhere near that after that auction.

Ah! Thanks Elveen - I haven't read those in a few years now... it may be time to pull them out after I finish reading the Morrison runs on Animal Man & Doom Patrol ... :hm:
