Point Five Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Another Teen-Age Romances off the list! Wonky miscut, but I love the color strike. Nicer reds than usual. szav, pmpknface, Sqeggs and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Turned this up in the junk pile today. A must have for Baker collectors. Almost 60 pages of info, rare photos, cover reproductions and info on Baker. Probably a lot of unknown info to many of you. Well worth searching out if you don’t have a copy. szav, Sqeggs and Ricksneatstuff 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of special note, I found out what this pinback button was. I'd had one for years. Ted Hake thought it was some kind of super hero but no one seemed to know exactly what it was. Thanks to this mag, I now know and was very happy to find out about. adamstrange and MBFan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fully expect Sqeggs to bust out a picture of his 9.4... as soon as his wife restores his internet privileges or whatever.

N e r V Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 I try to get at least a couple of Baker books graded each year at SDCC since they make it so easy to drop something off. Usually under-copies to use later as trade bait or just enjoy without risk of handling. I’m leaning towards these three this year. Good enough to slab? I have romance too but I like these covers as a change of pace. Still got over a month to decide though. Getting my copies of Nightmare graded has moved up since the prices seem to be pretty strong now and it’s a great cover so I may take more of these. Anyone know if the Baker romance is hotter right now than his other genres like the above? pmpknface 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally don’t watch Baker romance... I don’t like it enough at the prices to go after them. Blasphemy I know. Give me, Baker war, western, adventure etc all day though. I guess Baker romance is hotter in that those books are still pricier... but non romance is hotter in terms of how fast it’s rising in value percentage wise.

N e r V Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Not romance but here’s a couple of books with Baker that I’m on the fence if they are worth slabbing. Cool covers at least. Problem is I have some LB Cole stuff that needs to hit the plastic too. But these two are next in line if I can find a way to work them in with the rest of my books at SDCC. Sadly can’t bring them all down at one time. pmpknface 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was pretty disappointed. There’s no organization to it, no table of contents or index, no indication which comics each story came from. No indication that it’s laid out in any chronological order. They made no effort to use decent copies to get scans from, several pages are downright discolored and blurry. All in all a really low budget and amateurish effort by whoever put these together. I won’t order another one from them. Sqeggs, sacentaur, PeterPark and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am of the school that his better non romance books are really heating up right now. APC, for years, was a dead title, Baker cover or not. I scooped up as many as I could at great prices in nice grades. Just can’t touch them any more. I think the folks that chase the romance ones have gotton wise to this now.
