Metarog Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 (edited) Marvel Comics Index So as I was filing away my new Bizarre Adventures #27 (Thanks again Ron C.) and these were filed right before in the box. Strickly speaking these are not magazines but indexes with cover pics in B&W but they are magazine sized and have some great cover art so I'd thought someone might like to see them. I don't have 1 and 2 as I was not a big Spidey or Conan fan at the time (early eighties) and these are not high grade as all were rescued from quarter bins. There are great covers here from Steranko, Steacy, Reyes, Adams, etc. Anybody have these?

Your collection is amazing from what I remember in your old posts. If you have a chance post up the Spider-Man and Conan ones so everyone can see the whole set.

greggy Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Sure, I'll have to move some boxes but I am pretty sure where they are located. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave2739 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 I love these. I keep them handy and still use them for reference occasionally. I'm missing the Sub-Mariner, Cap and Iron Man indexes, but I have the rest. I'll post pics of Spidey and Conan when I'm back online later this afternoon.

That would be awesome... try to get the Subby one as that is my favorite. It indexes all the Invaders and Astonishing Tales series as well.

Metarog Posted April 15, 2017 Author Share Posted April 15, 2017 Wow, those two are nicer than I remember... might have to pick them up to complete the set. Thanks for sharing! Dave2739 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave2739 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Yeah, you've got me wanting to track down the few that I'm missing too. If you like these, I would also suggest checking out the various DC indexes that were put out by Eclipse under the "ICG" banner. George Olshevsky was involved with those as well and they have a similar format to these Marvel volumes. The DC ones are comic sized and full color.

Metarog Posted April 15, 2017 Author Share Posted April 15, 2017 Yes, I have the Legion of Super-Heroes index also. Those are very nice also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave2739 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 One of the few double covers in my collection happens to be one of those indexes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegasJeff Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Very cool covers. So what is on the inside? Is this some giant checklist of comics produced by Marvel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave2739 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 They break down each title, issue by issue and it lists info about each title. The creator credits, first and guest appearances and other info. The covers of each issue are shown, but in B/W and the quality of reproduction isn't great. The history and info provided for each issue is really good and useful though, in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
