THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD #67

Cover shows moderate wear consistent with a well-read Silver Age copy: visible creasing lines running through the lower portion of the cover, a diagonal crease near the bottom right, and slight corner softness at top left and bottom corners. There is some surface rub and minor color loss at the spine area, and the cover appears to be in a protective sleeve which limits full assessment of edge chipping. No major tears or stains are apparent, but the overall presentation suggests a mid-grade book. Interior pages and back cover were not visible and were not assessed.

The Brave and the Bold #67 (September 1966) is one of the try-out team-up issues that preceded the launch of Teen Titans as a standalone title. Written by Bob Haney with art by Bob Brown, the issue continues the format established in earlier Brave and the Bold outings that paired Robin, Kid Flash, Aqualad, and Wonder Girl as a young hero team, building the readership momentum that led directly to Teen Titans #1 in 1966. While it postdates the character grouping's actual first appearances in B&B #54 and #60, it remains part of the foundational run that established the Titans as a viable ongoing concept for DC.

Market data shows a steep, non-linear value curve typical of Silver Age team-up books: raw and low-grade copies trade for modest sums, mid-grade examples remain affordable, and value accelerates sharply only in the 9.0-plus range before spiking dramatically at 9.6 and 9.8. With just three 9.8s and nineteen 9.6s across a 166-copy Universal census, high-grade supply is thin relative to demand from Teen Titans specialists and Silver Age DC completists, which explains the outsized premium commanded at the top of the grade scale.

This is a book collected primarily by Teen Titans and Brave and the Bold team-up specialists rather than general Silver Age investors, with most transactional activity concentrated in the affordable mid and lower grades where the book functions as reading-copy or run-filler material. Values only become significant at the 9.4 tier and above, and the jump to 9.8 reflects true condition-census scarcity rather than broad key-issue demand. Buyers seeking exposure to the early Titans mythos at modest cost will find raw copies accessible, while high-grade certified examples appeal to a narrower pool chasing census-topping Silver Age DC material.
