Robot Man Posted October 21, 2015 Author Share Posted October 21, 2015 Good one! I had that in my bucket but forgot to post it. I know there are a lot more out there. The ones I posted were just the ones that popped out of my memory that I have in the boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the sheer magnitude of the depth and diversity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted October 22, 2015 Author Share Posted October 22, 2015 don't own the pulp but is a fave image... That Magic Carpet cover is soooo cool. I had a chance to buy a bunch of those but bought all the horror pulps the guy had and ran out of cash... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David P Hartman Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Hey Bob, outstanding thread! Thanks for pointing it out to me when we talked last Sunday at the Long Beach show. (I'm the guy who bought the Tarzan tin and the Aston Martin DB5 Corgi model car.) I have to admit I was skeptical at some of your statements. But after reading and seeing (for the most part) your posts (the visuals were/are hit and miss early on), I'm a believer! I use to think that unless you had a brick and mortar shop, the old stuff is not going to surface! You've shown that is simply not true! I'll PM or call and see if I can entice you into a tour of the archives of my 50 years of collecting, in it's many facets. Between the comics, pulps, paperbacks, magazines, good girl art, toys, premiums, art, rock and roll, under grounds, fanzines,cards, and what not..... We just may find something in common as well as mutually lucrative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted October 24, 2015 Author Share Posted October 24, 2015 Good to meet you David and thanks for your patronage at the show! I figured you would find this thread interesting. Don't be a stranger. Yes, I think we got to get together. Sounds like warped minds think alike! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David P Hartman Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 If you can align enough knot holes, indeed they might! Every tangent or vector is subject to rip tides that..... I bet you play chess as well, unless I read more into that cover theme arc, than I should. Sounds like you ride a bike. But do you own a crystal ball? I do. Can't find my hooded robe though..... To much LDS in the 60's? On Spock's advise, continue to live long and prosper, and get those babies away from me. I'm more vague than vogue. At least that what the think tank thunk. And it's not even 4:20 yet. I predict a chess game with golden age prize package. Remind me to show you my coverless stock. And all those culture vultures just keep circling!

Robot Man Posted October 26, 2015 Author Share Posted October 26, 2015 OK, it's HALLOWEEN week! My favorite holiday of the year bar none. We really do it up at our house. Anybody else remember the first time your parents quit taking you around and let you go alone with your friends? EPIC! Running from house to house with some shaving cream stolen from your dad and your mom wondering where all the toilet paper went she just bought. We couldn't wait for it to get dark and we would be out until 10:00 if we could. We would take a pillow case, fill it up and sneak back to the garage to "unload" then go out again. We would only show our parents the samller second load and keep the garage "stash" a secret. I remember there was a kid in the neighborhood whose older brother and his friends would cruise the streets in his pick-up. They had some kind of water pumper in the back and would hose the unfortunate kids who did not see them coming. We knew better and hid in the bushes as they drove by looking for "victims". Good times! I will be showing a few Halloween items every day this week as time permits. Probably won't be any boring horror comics unless they are directly Halloween related. (That would be way too easy). I would ask that you post stories from your childhood about fun Halloween experiences instead of a bunch of random horror comics.

Marty Mann Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 As a kid I remember looking forward with truly great anticipation to the "LIVE" Horror Show at a downtown theatre on Halloween Night...with a Magician, lovely assistant, various creatures roaming the darkened theatre, eerie sounds and a Horror Movie...it was TERRIFIC! Years later it was my honor to produce, in fond memory, a fun filled recreation of one of those magic nights. https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7367/9521727711_1f85603f0d_z.jpg' alt='9521727711_1f85603f0d_z.jpg'>IMG PHIL MYERS PRESENTS...! mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted October 26, 2015 Author Share Posted October 26, 2015 First up today. There aren't a whole lot of real Halloween superhero covers. DC did a few which I will show this week. This one is one of my favorites as it is not only a cover but a cool story as well. Gets real crazy at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
