  1. Down the WARREN Rabbit Hole

    It's ironic that the Warren magazines became my rabbit hole, because a warren is a place where rabbits live.   A warren is literally a rabbit hole.
    This gallery explores the depths of the Warren Publishing rabbit hole--excluding paperbacks, foreign versions and variants, and of course the four Warren pillars of Famous Monsters of Filmland, CREEPY, EERIE and VAMPIRELLA.   (I have other galleries for 3 of those 4, but don't hold your breath waiting for the Famous Monsters of Filmland gallery.)

  2. Australian Disney Comics Vol 1: Giant series G1 - G699

    Australia was a solid market for Disney comics for many years, and the local industry reprinted many issues here until imports replaced them in 1978. Many reprinted Dell/Gold Key comics from the US, but there are also lots of European stories from the 1960s and 1970s. Over the years there were lots of one-offs and specials, but the main series were:
    Donald Duck (2 series - D.D.# and later D.#)
    Film Preview (FP.# - the movie adapations
    Giant Series (G.# - sort of like Dell's Four Color series)
    Jumbo Series (like the Dell Giants J.#)
    Mickey Mouse (M.M.# and later M.#)
    Walt Disney Comics and Stories (No.#)
    Images of almost all of the 2,200 comics (!) can be found on the Ausreprints site as well, but I thought some bigger scans of the ones I have might be nice to have on the web as well.
    This is the first volume of Australian Disneys I will post in the Gallery. It entirely consists of comics from the Giant (G) Series, which was sort of like the Dell Four Color seriesof one-shots, with a wide range of titles within it. There were 698 issues in total, numbered G1 to G699 (G95 does not exist).

  3. Dell comics are good comics!

    My collection of Dell comics. Dell was an incredibly prolific and diverse publisher, so my collection of mostly funny animal and cartoon characters really just scratches the surface. For example, I have none of their many westerns, war or ghost comics, no Tarzan, only a few of the movie and TV tie in books etc.
    There are lots of duck books here, including
    Four Color Comics : the classic Barks stories were run in the Four Color Series for many years, including the first 20 or so Donald Duck stories (until the Donald Duck series started with #26, which wasn't really the 26th...) and the first three Uncle Scrooge issues.
    Walt Disney's Comics and Stories : #1 was published in October 1940 and the final Dell issue was #263 in August 1962. My focus has mainly been on issues 1 - 100, but I'll pick up nice copies of others when I get a chance.

  4. A CREEPY Collection for the Rest of Us

    My CREEPY collection isn't all slabbed NM copies.  In fact, the only one slabbed is CREEPY #1, and only because it came that way.  My collection is for people who might actually read their magazines once in a while.  I'd like for all of them to be at least a 6.0--but I don't know if that will ever happen, and there are some pretty nice books in here as well.
    So this is what you can do on a reasonable budget...

  5. The Po'Boy EERIE Collection

    This is where my Warren collecting began.   After finding 7 EERIEs and 7 CREEPYs from my teen years in a storage box in January of 2022, I set out to get all of them.   And that was literally my goal, to simply have a copy of every issue--I was completely ignorant as to grading/quality/value--I simply wanted a copy of every issue, as cheaply as possible.
    My goal, in fact, was to spend less than $10 per issue, landed (including any applicable tax and shipping charges), and it's probably fortunate that I decided to start with the EERIEs in that respect.   At the time, the decision was based on my vague understanding of EERIEs being more episodic in nature, with CREEPYs being more anthologic--so it made sense to get all the EERIEs first if I wanted to follow all their story and character arcs.   I was buying them to READ, after all; not as collectibles.
    But now that I have some experience with the Warren market, it retrospectively seems that EERIEs in general are not valued as highly as CREEPYs (and certainly not as highly as VAMPIRELLAs), so I kind of fell backwards into picking the right series to try obtain for under $10 per issue.
    Unfortunately, after what I had to pay for even low-grade copies of EERIE #17 and EERIE #23, I didn't quite achieve my goal of $10 per issue landed--the actual average was $10.87 per issue landed--but I DID come in at $8.44 per book BEFORE tax and shipping charges.   (Of course, I still don't have a #1--but NOBODY has #1.)
    So there are large chunks of this collection that are pretty rough--but at the same time, a large proportion of that roughness is exhausted in the first third of the collection.   By the middle third, more of the issues move from VG/F (and under) quality to the F/VF range, and the final third of the collection actually has a large percentage of very nice looking books.   That said, I think the best-looking book in my entire run is the #6, which looks to me like the only Niner of the EERIEs.
    So if you can find the right lots at the right times, you too can own a full run of (mostly) decent reader EERIEs (well, except #1--but NOBODY has #1) for about $10 per book on the Po'Boy Plan--where low prices are everything, and quality is no object!

  6. Australian golden (and a few silver) age comics

    A selection of Australian comics from 1938 - February 1966
    These are all from my collection. Most of them are reprints of American comics, but there are some Australian originals in here as well. Check out the Crimson Comet by Australian artist John Dixon - one of my favourites. The Silver Flash books have some great covers (and not so great interiors, but you're spared that here) and are well worth checking out.
    Australia used a British-style money system until February 1966. The prices translate roughly like this:
    6d = sixpence = 5c
    1/- = one shilling = 10c

  8. The Lottery Ticket VAMPIRELLA Collection

    I didn't set out to get the best Vampirella collection that anyone had ever seen.   Heck, a month ago, I didn't even know I WANTED a Vampirella collection.   CREEPYs and EERIEs, sure, but I always kind of considered Vampirella to be comic book soft porn for teenage boys.   But then I found out that while she has a storyline or two in each issue, there are also lots of other horror/sci-fi tales in the Warren tradition throughout most issues as well--so the interest began.
    And then I kind of started to finish my CREEPY and EERIE runs...   And then there was this full run of Vampis that had been just sitting there on eeBay with like 34 watchers for a month or so...   And then there was this bottle of Evan Williams on a Saturday night before my birthday...   And then I took a chance...
    There weren't pictures of every issue in the listing, and the ones that were pictured were in group shots and in bags, but the ones I could see SEEMED to match the seller's description of "FN to VF" overall, so I trusted that and crossed my fingers and made the necessary negotiations, knowing that I might just as easily receive a pile of garbage with a few good-looking issues for the pics.   But I was kind of ok with getting some beaters, too; after all, my EERIE collection is mostly just reader copies; as long as Vampirella fell somewhere between them and the CREEPYs, I'd be happy.
    So it was kind of like opening a pot of gold--with bright yellow streams of pure energy bursting from the cardboard and paper shells--when I unboxed these beauties.   Needless to say, I was MORE than happy!
    Now, I can't say I'm not posting this Gallery to show them off--because I am--but the fact that I won the lottery with this collection really has nothing to do with ME--I'm not a shrewd hard-bargain driving high-grade collector with a keen eye for values or anything--I just got lucky.   So I'm a proud owner, but I'm not boasting; I was just in the right place at the right time.   Let the glory be with the books themselves.   There's even a part of me that is somewhat disappointed, in that I firmly believe comic books/mags are to be read--but there are whole runs of this collection that are literally too nice to read/handle.   I don't like thinking of comics as mere commodities, but many of these deserve to be the sexy "look but don't touch" objects that they are.
    So I feel I have become a little jaded, after my "comics are for reading!" stance--though in all honesty I will probably never have any of these slabbed, either--but slabbed or not, most of them really are spectacular for 40-50 year old books, and they deserve to be shared.   I didn't do anything to create them, preserve them, or deserve them; I've just been installed as the curator of this museum--because I took a chance.
    I hope you enjoy them too.

  9. Other Warranted Warrenesque Warrenness

    Ok, this will likely be my last gallery--I promise--unless I come into a great deal of money and decide to take on Famous Monsters of Filmland after all!
    Barring that, this gallery displays those books in my collection that aren't strictly Warren publications, but which wouldn't exist without the Warren publications that came before them.   In many cases, they provide a forum for several of the same writers and artists that worked on the Warren magazines and characters (although I'm not sure what Harris was thinking with their incarnation of The ROOK).
    With all of the authentic Warren magazines being 40-65 years old now, and many of them showing their age, it's kind of refreshing to see some pristine modern work from the same contributors--chief among them Kelly, Sanjulian, and Frazetta, among whom the first six covers of Warrant's The CREEPS are distributed equally.
    I have posted the Harris issues of the original Warren runs (CREEPY #146 and VAMPIRELLA #113) both here--as they are not actually Warren publications--and in the CREEPY and VAMPIRELLA galleries--as they both fit naturally into those native numbering sequences, and were released relatively shortly after the demise of Warren.   Sorry for the redundancy.  
    In the case of the two ongoing Warrant titles (SHUDDER and VAMPIRESS CARMILLA), I will be updating each year's back issues and annuals every Christmas, so long as they are printed and I am still alive.   All other listed titles are in hand and will be posted shortly, in turn.
    The CREEPS (Warrant): #1 - #32 + 4 Annuals
    CREEPY (Dark Horse): #1 - #24
    CREEPY (Harris): #146
    CREEPY The Classic Years (Harris)
    CREEPY The Limited Series (Harris): #1 - #4 + 1993 Fearbook
    EERIE (Dark Horse): #1 - #8
    EERIE Greatest Hits (Harris)
    FREAKY (Arco): #1
    Pantha (Harris): #0 - #2
    The ROOK (Dark Horse): #1 - #4
    The ROOK (Harris): #0 - #4
    SHUDDER (Warrant): #1 - #7 + 2023 Annual ( #8 - COMING/ONGOING)
    VAMPIRELLA (Harris): #113
    VAMPIRESS CARMILLA (Warrant): #1 - #11 + 2023 Annual (#12 - COMING/ONGOING)
    " COMING/ONGOING " means all previous back issues and annuals will be updated each year around Christmas.
    If it doesn't say anything but the title, it's already posted.
    I hope you have enjoyed this trip through the Warren publications... and beyond!

  12. AJD's EC collection

    I've been collecting ECs for over ten years now, and I thought they'd look nice in a gallery. I'm not a horror fan, but you'll find full runs of the war and sci-fi titles here, all of the Mad comics (#1-23) and the first magazine (#24). I also have all of the New Direction books and a few other odds and ends.

  15. AJD's "other" golden age album

    Since I already have a fair chunk of my collection in albums, I thought I'd put up the rest just for fun. My EC, Australian, Dell ducks and war bonds covers all have their own albums. This one is a category I have imaginatively called "other". In it you'll find various things, including a Fiction House collection that almost got its own album, and selected covers by Golden Age greats - L. B. Cole, Wolverton, Schomburg and even a Baker or Two.

  17. Australian Disney Comics Vol 4 Shorter series

    My collection of Australian reprints of Disney comics (1947-1978) has well and truly outgrown a single album. This album contains images of Australian printed Disney comics in the following series. It will grow as I manage to find them! This volume is an 'other' volume that contains the shorter series. You can find the longer running ones in volumes 1 through 3.
    Character Issues CI (26 issues) - many of these reprint parts of Dell Four Color issues
    Christmas Parade CP (15 issues)
    Film Preview (90 issues) Movie and TV tie-ins, reprinted from Dell Four Color and later Gold Key adaptations
    Jumbo series J (57 issues) - these are 64 page books. Some reprint Dell Giants, others are compilations of other Dell material
    Mobil giveaways (24 issues) - given away in 1964 at petrol/gas stations in Australia (there is also a series from New Zealand)
    One shots (? issues) - issues that pre-date or sit outside of established series
    One Shot series OS (65 issues) - most of these reprint parts of Dell Four Color issues
    Vacation Parade VP (7 issues)

    Hi people,
    I kept digging up in my loft and yes there were junk mail, secondhand clothes bags, odd one or two cobwebs up in the beams and i thought right thats it no more comics up here to find...
    … then as i was starting to pull the latch door across i seen something shiny and it made a crinkly noise, duh i thought its just a carrier bag from when id left it up there ready to use next time... it looked too old to be the one i took up yesterday, so i reached in and I WAS AMAZED by what i held in my hands yes you guessed it Comics. I dont think its quite the holy grail but take a look at sum of these 🤩
     
    Added to gallery pics in this album with some comics I had already before the loft experience, enjoy ( sorry if submitted images are repeated elsewhere in my gallery folders)
