Randall Dowling Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 5 hours ago, GeneticNinja said: I need to check out that Epic magazine. Yet another one I never heard of but the covers look cool. It's a great series. As you said, the covers are by some of the greats of the day- Moebius, Frazetta, Adams, BWS, etc. Even cooler is the last 8 issues or so have a color serial by John Byrne called "The Last Galactus Story" that is excellent peak Byrne work. The only down side is that the magazine ceased publication before he could finish it. FoggyNelson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N e r V Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 I think that cover is credited to Sutton. Either way I always enjoyed it. Curious to see page 50 on can computers kill. This was published in 1968 long before things like skynet were heard of. I want to see their take on the threat from 1968 eyes...

boomtown Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 I picked up a really nice lot of about 40 Creepy mags off of ebay last week. Loving them all but wanted to bring attention to #113 specifically. Book is cover to cover Wrightson art, collecting most of the work he did earlier in the decade for Warren. This was Wrightson's finest period of work (imo), leading up to his mind blowing Frankenstein adaption for Marvel. Just beautiful stuff, all collected under one cover, in black and white (that's a plus to me), that can be had for really, really cheap. Even the one story that featured his inks over Infantino's pencils was fun to look over. a DeadOne, Brandon Shepherd and SAKI 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron C. Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 (edited) I have a question... I love this BWS cover of Epic #7 and I will get at least one of them signed by Neal Adams this summer for my collection. I have at least 3 others in a similar grade (9.4-9.8)... do I get them signed and graded or is it not worth the cost? Edited July 8, 2018 by Ron C.

N e r V Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Sorry to interrupt but I missed out on getting one of the Creepshow replicas when they were available. Just curious if anyone here grabbed one? I thought they were kind of cool or creepy.... The Lions Den 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
