We're looking at Silver Age only?

 

For the most part. Some books may push the envelope by a year or two, like Two Gun Kid #24. (It's ok by me). I'm sure there have been a few others, but the vast majority, I'm going be memory here, have been Silver Age books.

Okey dokey. That's what I figured, given this is the Silver Age forum and all.

 

The comics with similar covers I have to post are copper age though, so...

Yes, I recall the issue of Sensation comics with a figure on each finger.

 

I recently noticed these two books, have very similar composition, color-wise and with the dual attack of fire and ice against a superhero.

The Flash of course has his ever present city silhouette in the background.

As the "Manosaurus" the monster resembles the creature in "20 Million Miles to Earth" , one of the better sci-fi movies of the 50's.

I realize that this will be a stretch but, ASM18 and Rawhide 48 seemed similar to me.

So much so that I combined them into one cover.
