Ron C. Posted July 25, 2018 Author Share Posted July 25, 2018 Love and Rockets #1 Fifth printing (s/s by all three Hernandez Brothers at Motor City Con 2018). There is one other book on the census (9.4). This book has a "lite bend" (top front cover) and a "right front top non-color breaking crease". It looks amazing elsewhere so I might press and regrade it (not for any value, but for me). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the covers are pretty unique in their own way, but I think my favorite is #8. This one just came back. I see that the OA of this cover sold on HA in 11/16 for over 11k.

I love this cover a lot. unfortunately it went well beyond my price range and I lost. greggy and Ron C. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron C. Posted July 30, 2018 Author Share Posted July 30, 2018 Here is the Third Printing of Love and Rockets #2 signed by all three Hernandez Bros. It finally got added to the CGC census, but since it is the only copy, it hasn't made it to the Registry. Brandon Shepherd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hernandez brothers were among the first in the Indy comic/Small Press book movement. The covers and interior art pushed the envelope compared to what the larger companies were printing in the early 80's. I bought my first copy in 1982/1983 and am enjoying adding to my collection here and there. Hopefully, there are a few out there who enjoy the posts... either way, I'm still having fun.

M-F0uRce99 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Hey! Some nice stuff on this thread! Is anyone familiar with this comic? "Crime Stoppers of America" by Beto. It's a limited edition of 30, with a sketch and signature on the inside cover by Beto. From Beto at the the 2002 San Diego Con. Just wondering if there were more of these printed without the sketch, limited edition and signature. I was hoping to find a reading copy. Thanks!
