I really had a hard time finding colors I was happy with when I was hunting for 63, at the time it seemed they were all faded.

Always liked this one.  A lot going on here.

my 64 is a personal favorite and an Okajima.

fantastic!

I have never been able to land an Okajima.

Wow SuperGrover!  Planet and Okajima, maybe the two coolest things in comics combined!!  And Artboy99, great colors on that one!  Here is my copy, rather drab in comparison.

Ok on to the 65...  My first issue acquired way back in 2010 and maybe my favorite one in the series.  Something about this cover just drew me in.  Little did I know the rabbit hole I was going down!!  A number of boardies have pretty sweet copies of this one, looking forward to seeing them!

65

I'm very excited for issue 65 and the next several issues!  The covers at the end of the run are just special.

Like so much golden age art, the cover of Planet 65 was heavily inspired by earlier work.  This is from one of the Planet Stories pulps, although I don't recall which one, or who the artist is.

I'm sure it is this one

I bought this raw on the boards last summer and thought it looked so nice I made my first CGC submission 

[SuperGrover]

I bought my 65 here from Jimbo(jimjum12)

then sent it in and was very pleased with the grade.

Probably my favorite non-Rivet cover.(at least in my top 71)

Here’s my 64, I won’t be back until 68

The book that got me into Planet Comics and atomic sci-fi

Got this from Richard/Mr Bedrock, and if I ever sell, he will have first dibs. Still seems to be highest graded [?], but surely there are better copies out there.

White pages  - and going by the scan a certain 'look' to the book. I do find myself wondering if this might be the 'missing' Church copy...

I wonder if he smelled it before slabbing?  If it smelled like cedar, there is a good chance...
