Amazing Mysteries #33 (CGC 6.5 with cream to off-white pages) $675:news: SOLD.

A super cover for the first horror comic from Marvel. A solid clean cover with no stamps, writing or ink marks. Hard to come by with only 13 unrestored books in the CGC census. I don’t think current prices reflect the significance of this book- Marvel’s first horror comic. They are going up though. A CGC 5.5 recently sold on ComicLink for $575.

Beware Terror Tales #6 (CGC 7.0 with off-white pages) $695:news: SOLD.

What a cover! A classic skeleton- yellow by the way, scaring the bejeebers out of this man turning him green and his hair white.

Unidentified cover artist but some believe Bernard Baily may have continued the run. Interior art by Sheldon Moldoff and Maurice Gutwirth. Published March 1953.

Some great horror stories in this one. Another hard-to-get book with only 15 in the CGC census.

Last GPA sale was a 4.0 for $400 in December 2018.

Crime Does Not Pay #33 (CGC 7.5 with cream to off-white pages) $3850:

If you’re a crime comic aficionado Crime Does Not Pay #33 must be in your collection. One of the most sought after crime comics this sits as number 5 in Overstreet’s Top 10 Crime Comics.

This classic hanging corpses and axe murderer cover by Charles Biro is difficult to obtain in any grade and especially in high-grade.

When you consider that comics were written for kids, it’s hard to believe you could have such a violent and shocking cover in 1944. Yet here it is.

A chilling but mesmerizing classic cover!

Spectacular cover and book...

Ok ok... TAKE!  I just can’t let this jewel sit here. There’s an 8.0 on clink that looks like a dog in comparison.
