Underappreciated stuff, especially by this fickle market that discriminates against magazines because they have an odd size.

the blob Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 I apparently have a nice collection of Rampaging Hulks I forgot I owned. I know I would pick them up, but I seem to have forgot how many I did. Jasonmorris1000000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OtherEric Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 In today. Only 3 Marvel Super Specials to go (not counting Sgt. Pepper’s), but the three i still need are Jaws 2 and the Kiss issues.

My local grocery store would get one copy and if I was lucky enough to happen on it I’d grab it. #36 is my favorite. I tip my hat to you for going for the run. I had played with the idea, but it meant getting a lot of content I wasn’t especially interested in. Not any easy accomplishment - a non-traditional format, a lot of mostly-black and mostly-white covers that show wear real bad, and now because of the Hollywood-hype trend, several have spiked in price.

It's an oddball title, to be sure. I sometimes think that it's better considered as two titles... 1-13 as one run, and 14-41 as a different series. And even if I don't care about some of the movies they adapted, it's an interesting snapshot on popular culture of that era. And for every issue that makes you go "why?" there's one like the #36, Sienkiewicz on Dune is just a crazy cool concept. apocalypse76 and FoggyNelson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graded magazines are ridiculously cheap. As far as I know, they won't slab this one yet. Although the 60's magazine size Analog's would be one of the obvious runs for them to start with if they do start slabbing pulps; as published it's squarebound and trimmed, so really not much different than most of the Warren mags, actually, in format: Jasonmorris1000000, Randall Dowling and ThothAmon 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
