  1. Past hour
  2. A great Frank cover: And I've always loved this story from Denny O'Neil and Frank (with Steve Mitchell, and kind of trying to be Neal Adams) from DC Special Series #21, reprinted in the leather-bound Frank Miller Batman collection book:
  3. Imagine if they could quantify the characters and concepts he conjured!
  4. Well I did attempt to look for my slab, but didn't find it quickly enough Lord knows. Maybe y'all well light that fire by extracting it!
  5. yeah. that lil guy. nice find!!! did you slab it or buy it already graded?
  6. All very, very nice. I have two copies of 135 and both have a popped staple from the binding being too tight. Sigh
  7. That's actually a "shard light" BriD. Not a full scale shard.
  8. Tonight's FLASH SALE will be something different with a different twist to it. ALL RAW BOOKS WITH THE WORD "MARVEL" IN THE TITLE 20% OFF! This, again, is for RAW books only, and is not for all Marvel books in general -- only those that have the word "Marvel" as part of their official title. The titles that are on sale are Marvel Feature, Marvel Premiere, Marvel Presents, Marvel Spectacular, Marvel Spotlight, Marvel Super-Action, Marvel Super-Heroes, Marvel Tales, Marvel Team-Up, Marvel Triple Action, Marvel Two-In-One, and the sneaky one, Ms. Marvel. Any RAW book from one of these series will be 20% until new books are listed again, so grab them while they're here for the grabbing! Thanks again to everyone who's purchased and checked out the thread so far -- scanning Tales to Astonish, Teen Titans and Thor for the next two days of listings -- I'll see you then!
  9. A few more pics of Mera never hurt any thread:
  10. So Alex had 3 different posters at that show. I bought 2 posters of each cover. All Winners, Captain America and Marvel Mystery. He signed them all with his slow perfectly meticulous signature. So neat and tidy. Someone here must have been at that show. SDCC, mid 80's ( Mitch maybe?) He was at a table in the lobby area, not in the main sales room. Anyways, still have these. Gave one Cap poster and one Marvel Mystery poster (human torch) to friends. (used the vacuum just the other day Jim )
  11. Miller and Janson did this splash page for Marvel Super Heroes #95 which reprints Hulk #145. I have no idea why.
  12. I feel like I recognize the upper half of that cover with the female matador. I checked it against a one-shot magazine from 1956 called True Woman's Aventures I remember, but it's a different painting: https://www.pulpinternational.com/pulp/entry/Cover-and-scans-from-True-Womans-Adventures-magazine-circa-1956.html
  13. I got slab with a shard in it. It was right in the center of the front cover when I got it and it wasn't in the photo that the seller had. I realized I could get it to move a little and got it to settle between the label and the book. It wouldn't move to the bottom for some reason. It's hard to see in the photo but I definitely thought this was preferable to a reholder or returning it.
  14. There's more than one way to take out a sub:
  15. Today
  16. I had the origin of Comet book as a young kid, as part of my dad's collection from when he was a kid. I was 7 or 8. For some reason, this panel gave me nightmares so bad back then that I've never forgotten it:
  17. And thank you again! The Silver Age has some incredibly wacky covers and stories, and Jimmy Olsen and Lois Lane were perfect examples of it. This cover is definitely a good representation!
