A little help please.....

 

I am trying to determine true first prints for the four "Cherry Collection" books.

 

I think 1st print volume I says "Yentzer & Gonif" in upper left corner.

 

I think Volume II and III say "Kitchen Sink" upper right side.

 

Volume IV???

 

A little help here would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks.

Vol III first soft cover has a $15.95 cover price

I saw a comic book yesterday at my LCS that may be considered the closest to a modern day version of an Underground Comix, called Jesus Christ In the Name of the Gun. Anyone check it out? Jesus kicking Nazi's and Hilter's and blowing people away, pretty offensive to Catholics, but I thought it looked good...

I recently read a comic book called "Freedom Collective," published by Rough-Cut Comics. It's a homage to Kirby and Lee with the exception that all the super-heroes are Russian communists... It's pretty funny and would have been pretty subversive if published in the 1960's. I haven't read Jesus Christ In the Name of the Gun but I'll try to check it out... That reminds me Happy Easter everyone!

Anybody got any Star Reach?

 

 

Here's a couple. The edit sort of ruins #3 but I think we all know what's under there...

According to the Fogel Guide:

 

#1 c=1.50 is a 16th print

#3 c=1.50 is a 7th print

#4 c=1.50 is a 4th print

#5 c=1.50 is a 4th print

#6 c=1.50 is a 2nd print

#8 c=2.00 is a 1st print

 

... and if you are wondering where my previous posted pics went.... doing some remodeling/file sourcing... should be back with some covers in a week or so.

I'm on cloud 9.. Just got this in the mail today. My new favorite underground (well.. 2nd to Cherry Poptart, duh). It's an absolutely stunning copy.. and a friggin hilarious read.

Nice copy. Would love to find out which pages are out of order on the 1st print of the 2nd issue of MR. By the way, another Underground that had a printing error with pages out of order is Commies from Mars #1 (1st print).

Here's something I came across recently. One of the editors tells me he believes that this is Steve "S. Clay" Wilson's first published work (1966).

Can anyone figure out what it's from (publication and issue)? (It's a contest, with a big no prize as a prize).

 

[50 Cent #II (1st)]

Wow, not one guess or comment on S. Clay Wilson's probable first published works.

It was from Grist #7 (1966). A poetry magazine by John E. Fowler and Charles Plymell was an editor on.

 

Well, here's a piece from his probable second published work. Grist #9 (1966).

1 piece by Steven C. "Chopper Pilot" Wilson.

[erehwon]

I read in a Bob Levin interview with Wilson that the first published image of the checkered demon was in Grist... He's supposed to have his arm around a biker or something like that...

That's a #2.. not a #1. Huh? :think:

Wishing S. Clay all the best.
