Bat-Man Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Fun! Thanks for posting. Nice artwork in the bunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Readcomix Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Absolutely gorgeous copies! Seeing these makes me want reader copies because, growing up with bronze and early copper, I always thought the Spidey villain Hydroman was a neat concept. I'd love to read these to see how directly he was based on this hero. (And clearly Man o' Metal looks like Stan recycled him into the Molten Man in the silver age.) Thank you for sharing them!

skypinkblu Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Those are wonderful, Walter , I first saw the title a year and 1/2 ago when a friend asked me to sell some of her husband's books. Those were in the "Evelyn" collection, but they were much lower grade. I bought one myself, the #3", but I read them all. They were neat and goofy at the same time:) I can't imagine how hard it must have been to find all of those in these grades, just fantastic! It's amazing how so many of the SA Marvels were inspired by older comics. For example in Mystic 5 (the first series) I read a story about a guy who gets stronger when he's angry;) walclark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

telerites Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 These are so fun and such a nice high grade run. This was one of my first sets to go after before the genre change with #16. Not wanting to horn in so my run in the spoiler and a somewhat less breath-taking set. The #13 was the last one I added and was the toughest for me to locate - now I have 4 copies (the two shown which I slabbed and two others that are raw). Congrats on such a nice uber-drooling run,Walter Spoiler sagii and podboy66 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve got the other issues (except #12), but didn’t post them because they aren’t Hydroman covers. Like you, I more or less stopped at the change with #16.

Thanks, Walter and again, I hope it was not bad form to post them as I in no way wanted to detract from your accomplishment. I liked the Everett covers and since I can't afford Subbie in most Timelys, this was a good avenue Your run is awesome and such high grade books - congrats again!

I never mind when people share their books in a thread. I love seeing that others share my interests. That’s why I’m on these boards. I do appreciate when people let a poster get everything up before jumping in halfway through with a book of their own. Just seems to be common courtesy.

vaillant Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 I love Hydroman, if they were a bit less expensive, I would have picked more. I just have an issue, don’t recall which one right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
