I noticed earlier in the thread you had DC Showcase's version of Dr. No, here's the original British Classic Illustrated version, on sale on ebay at the moment by a fellow boardie I believe?

 

What a fantastic cover.  That's wonderful, and the colors are so rich.

The above link will give you the story behind the British editions and some info on the differences on the interior art etc. 

Incidentally, a reprint of the CI version was released in 2016, but again only in Europe, cover price for the UK was £9.99, about  $20 back then.

We are in fine company.

I'm sure you have seen them all @tv horror but maybe you have not noticed this Tomahawk / Frankenstein cover before?

[1950's war comics]

i'm thinking that Tomahawk might just be one of the longest running / least collected series out there

they have some awesome covers along with the well known Neal Adams covers too

Tomahawks first appearance was in "Star Spangled Comics" #69 with an issue date of June 1947, it is seldom offered on eBay....

just one issue, a reader copy has sold recently, it sold for just over a $100 and there is currently only one copy for sale , a Good+ 2.5 for $315 on eBay......

great black cover featuring Robin that i imagine in higher grade would be worth an arm and a leg

Great photos.  Funny that they both ended up in Star Wars movies.

Tomahawk had great Frank Thorne art the last few years in this series. Severely underated series and character.

No he's using "Gorilla warfare" against Tomahawk.
