I'm fortunate enough to own the original of the above facsimile of Batman #227, but I simply had to buy this new edition as well as it's a great story. The Neal Adams cover pays homage to that of Detective Comics #31, which bears the signature of Bob Kane. However, given Mr.Kane's reputation for being a bit of a bullsh*tter, you can't really rely on anything with his name on it as having been drawn by him.
Next, above, is a facsimile of DC Special #5, featuring Joe Kubert. I've got the original of the first issue, so this makes a nice addition to my extremely limited number (four, I think) of this particular title. A nice variety of stories inside, so if you're a Kubert fan, this one's for you.

Not a facsimile, but a brand-new one-shot publication, celebrating 50 years of Captain Britain. Had a quick browse-through and it looks like one worth having, especially if you'e a CB fan. Even if you're not, would still be a nice addition to your comics collection. I only received this one yesterday (Friday), having pre-ordered it a while back, yet I see it's already being sold on eBay for extortionate asking prices. Grab one while you can!
