Question
This is what I have:
The Lone Ranger #18, Treachery Lurks Along the Wide Missouri, 1957, no barcode, in plastic.  I would say in excellent condition, but not perfect.
Boris Karloff, Tales of Mystery, #93, 1979.  Barcode, in plastic, also excellent condition but not perfect.
Twilight Zone, #58, 1974. No Barcode, in plastic, very good condition, not excellent.
Just curious.
Thanks-
jill


Answer
Hi Jill

The title said 4 comics but I'm only seeing three.  

I'm not sure what Lone Ranger book you have because Lone Ranger 18 came out in 1949.  There were several spin-off titles, like Lone Ranger's Companion Tonto, Lone Ranger's Horse Silver, etc.  I would expect a Lone Ranger issue from 1957 to be worth $5 to $15 depending on condition.

The two 70s issues would probably be worth somewhere in the $2 to $5 range, depending on condition.
