  1. beautiful copy... love the colors! Very nice cheetah!
  2. Agreed... mine might be a good minus but I still got one... and that is all that matters!
  3. This is mine... a low grade copy but I was just grateful to be able to get my hands on this book.
  4. These are both low grade but I LOVE them! I am just grateful I could pick up copies of these books.
  5. Here is a great EC cover... Just picked up several ECs from a private collection yesterday
  6. I have not seen this cover before... I love it! Very cool book!
  7. Sorry that last post was meant for the Wings #93 not the Fight #45... my bad. The 45 has nice colors but is not high grade.
  8. Beautiful bright colors, awesome Thank you! Once I figure out how to scan you will see how beautiful the colors are. I am a pretty strict grader and I give this a 6.5/7.0 (could even get a higher grade if I CGC it) so it is higher grade with beautiful colors... I paid a higher price for this for that reason but figured it would go up in value since higher grade fiction house with really good colors are super hard to come by.
  9. wow! that is creepy... and yet I want a copy Freudian slip Either that or I am a little perverse... completely possible since I love torture/bondange... Hmmm, this is really not going well for me Oh I don't know That is one weird funnybook cover. Many of the people I work with are childhood survivors of emotional and physical abuse, which may be why I find this cover so compelling. To me, this is a real horror cover. But it's all in the sub-text, and -probably?- unknowing. Whereas the sub-text of virtually all PCH is a wink "this is all just a story". Hence, the more Grand Guignol, the more cathartic. Or in the case of bondage covers, they are about anything but Kraft Ebbing. They are about the critical moment of rescue. And the damsel is always innocent, and therefore deserves to be rescued. It is in the rare instances where the damsel has no visible means of rescue that they are more disturbing - cf Underworld Crime #7. Whereas powerful women tend to be depicted as evil/and or manipulative, which is pure Cinema Noir. Or if good, then like Phantom Lady shining a light while scantily clad into evil men's darkness. It may or may not be a coincidence that the same tropes seem to emerge in so-called Men's Sweat magazines after Wertham and the demise of the pulps. I haven't done my research, and don't know enough to be sure. I do wonder about the influence of the war on the artists who returned. In real life I am a mental health therapist... so I like covers which depict mental health in some way (hence the Boy #24). I am not sure whether I would call this abuse or just very very strange as the child is getting spanked (not beaten) by an adult size play toy... My feeling is that we read more into the covers than was ever intended. But I could be wrong...
  10. Love the colors on this one! Sorry about the purple lines... time to get a new camera
