Popular Post chevalmeow Posted February 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 8, 2020 Finally got myself a copy of this Warren mag. Kept putting it off as I was trying to fill so many other gaps. Found this is in nice shape at a nice price.

Popular Post OtherEric Posted February 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 8, 2020 Continuing to slowly fill in the run. Paying for a color cover and then having the front cover be in B&W anyway is a very witzend move, that's for sure.

OtherEric Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 (edited) 43 minutes ago, speedcake said: four dollars!? That's a pretty high price tag for a book in 1978, that's for sure. But with the very small print run (3000) and a primarily if not entirely mail order distribution, I'm not sure how meaningful the cover price actually is. Some issues definitely had lower preorder prices than the listed price, and some didn't have a stated price at all. The price jumped around a lot the last 5 issues. 9 was $5 (and came with a print), 10 was $3, 11 was $4, 12 was $3.50 (and only listed in the indicia, not the cover), and 13 (the last issue) was $3.

Popular Post shiverbones Posted February 12, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 12, 2020 This series by cracked, edited by mort Todd, is far edgier than the severin covers lead you to expect. Closer to Fantagraphics than cracked. I bought these at 7-11 as a teen rakehell, Randall Dowling, oakman29 and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherEric Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 In today. I'm sure this isn't the only time a different publisher has continued a series from Marvel, but it's definitely not common. I already had the three Marvel issues: rakehell, shiverbones and FoggyNelson 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherEric Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Also in today. Lone Star called this a 6.0; I suppose with the crease near the spine that's not wrong. But it's a lot better condition than you normally see this book in, and I got it cheaper than even most beater copies go for. And now I can finally read it, so I can go ahead and read the Sunday Newspaper sequel I found in the wild a year or two ago and have that make sense. comicdonna, shiverbones, Randall Dowling and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just saying that I could see enough dings on my book this time that the 6.0 probably wasn't technically wrong... but it presents quite a bit better than a typical 6.0.
