Often, it is just the quality of the copy and the brilliance of the colors. A lot of the Church books have always stood out to me because of this. My scans do not always live up to the book in hand so I remember the book for its brilliance but am underwhelmed by the scans I have left of it. These are some of the ones that stand out to me from the titles I collected. i intentionally didn't duplicate the ones others have shown. Alan's have always been superior copies to anything I ever held. That Fight 49 is in the ComicConnect auction right now. I had it for a while I love that Jungle 140 Larryw7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's a great cover. Pretty sure it's based on this photo. bounty_coder and cheetah 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bounty_coder Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Given the nature of that Machine gun job; I think she came grossly under prepared in the Jacket department... For comparison... cheetah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should go back and look at the heritage magazine that covered it. IIRC, he had the original cover art to Pkanet 1. I don't want people to get the wrong idea here but Jon is still very much around, just with a much smaller comic collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was surprised how low that went too at the time...it seemed like the steal of the Berk auction where so much else was going at a premium. cheetah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Ditko Spidey page from issue 6 sold for $105K so if there'd been a movie involving Flint Baker perhaps it would have gone for a lot more. The original art forum did not give it a lot of love.
