Sword of Sorcery Complete Run SOLD!

 

Currently listed as a 10-day auction, but happy to accept reasonable offers.  Very early work by Walt Simonson, Howard Chaykin & Jim Starlin.

 

  • Sword of Sorcery #1 Mike Kaluta draws the cover. Inside Denny O'Neil adapts Leiber's story "The Price of Pain Ease."  Pencil artwork is by a young Howard Chaykin.  Inks in this issue and most following are by a group of artists collectively known as the Crusty Bunkers, essentially whoever was in Neal Adams' studio at the time.  Very Good / Fine: structurally this is much nicer, but there is some mild foxing staining around the edges of the back cover.
  • Sword of Sorcery #2 The cover is penciled by Chaykin and inked by Bernie Wrightson. In this issue O'Neil adapts Leiber's story "Thieves' House" as "Revenge of the Skull of Jewels."  Chaykin provides the interior pencil artwork. Fine condition: pages tanned. Hint of a color-breaking crease near the top right corner of the front cover, slight tanning around the edges of the back cover.
  • Sword of Sorcery #3 Cover and interior pencils by Chaykin.  The story "Betrayal" is apparently a Denny O'Neil original.  Fine condition: there is a tiny color-breaking crease at the lower right corner of the front cover.
  • Sword of Sorcery #4 Cover by Howard Chaykin.  The story is Denny O'Neil's adaptation of Leiber's "The Cloud of Hate."  Chaykin Inc is credited with the interior artwork, and it is possible that Walt Simonson penciled several of the pages uncredited.  Regardless, Simonson pencilled & inked the second story, an original Fafhrd short story by Denny O'Neil.  This issue is in Fine/Very Fine  condition.  Very slight ink transfer staining on the back cover.
  • Sword of Sorcery #5 Cover by Walt Simonson, who also penciled the interior artwork for O'Neil's adaptation of the Fritz Leiber story "The Sunken Land."  The second story is an original Gray Mouser short story written by George Effinger and penciled by Jim Starlin.  Al Milgrom inked each of the two stories in this issue.  Fine/Very Fine condition.
