Paul_Maul Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I've always found FF 117 and 118 to be particularly cool and unique because of the rare combination of 20 cent price and old style FF logo. ChrispyC66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steviehuv66 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Great thread to start! I picked up FF # 128 from Superworld Comics at the Carbo Con in NY this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

namisgr Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 It's too bad Steranko did only a couple of covers: ChrispyC66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Aldred Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 At first glance you'd never think that the cover is by Steranko, but I suppose Sinnott's inking dominates there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffro. Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Sinnott is a heavy inker, sometimes at the expense of the pencils Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul_Maul Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Sinnott is a heavy inker, sometimes at the expense of the pencils Maybe that's why I always enjoyed Kirby's FF work inked by Sinnott. It reigns in some of his more excessive tendencies. ChrispyC66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Pontoon Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 I'm about 7 issues shy of the whole run up to 300 and beyond, and have been reading the post-Kirby issues like this one. ChrispyC66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Pontoon Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 This one may not be much to look at, but it holds a special place in my collection since it's the first FF I bought off the racks. ChrispyC66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Pontoon Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 One of the good things about pulling books for this thread is that I noticed I need to keep better track of which spinner rack purchases I need to upgrade; this is my second copy of FF #171.

Mr Sneeze Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 Great books everybody! I love all of the alternate covers on the FF reprint titles. Still a few books here I would like to upgrade. I have found these books tough to find in higher grades. A lot of my original exposure to silver age FF was through Marvels Greatest Comics.

Ghost Town Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Yay. Great addition to the thread, Kaspar. And you're so right about the alternate covers. Though I'm still trying to figure out why Galactus has green hands on the MGC #37. And what happened to his gloves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I'm still trying to figure out why Galactus has green hands on the MGC #37. And what happened to his gloves? The great coincidence is that the alternate covers are all(mostly) picture frames. The Gil Kane cover to 34 always blows me away - just a great composition! I never noticed Galactus having gloveless green hands till you said it.

Though I'm still trying to figure out why Galactus has green hands on the MGC #37. And what happened to his gloves? Amazing copies of issues really hard to find in decent shape. As a reader during the Bronze Age, these issues were my first look into the Silver Age past of the title, and will always have a special place in my collection. That the 'Marvel's Greatest' title began with an Inhumans story and then reprinted the Surfer-Galactus saga makes these especially memorable.
