Daily Double  Fox Giant Hoot Gibson and Youthful Romances #6 go to Comcav! Thank you William! 

that bizarre Hoot Gibson is insidiously difficult to find.  Granted, no one cares, but a challenging Fox book and most have some great Blue Beetle rebinds included.

Hi Eli! 

I don't recall BB in the Hoot Gibson, William, but that Maureen Tandem is an oddity, as are the Pedros. I would venture to guess its the toughest of the Fox Giant lot.

Frankenstein #13 VG

Not a classic cover from the run, but the contents are as bizarre as any. A few months back, a very comparable copy went at auction on eBay at $168. I'm going to stick with my original ask:

$125

I do not have a #3 to complete the run, and I'd probably keep that one anyway as its one of the most bizarre covers out there, on par with CDNP #46 and Man #1. I doubt it intends what it seems to suggest as its a Joe Sinott cover and he's one of the sweetest human beings to ever walk the earth, but it is ... Weird.

Is it okay if I make up for that recent stuff with a pre- 'Tec 1 book?

[Readcomix]

This book, if our search function is to be trusted, has only been offered once before on the boards, by @skypinkblu I'd say hers was slightly nicer, based on my memory of the pix.

Famous Funnies #8 in VG from March 1935. Beautiful Buck Rogers and Jane Arden strips, some racist caricature, Joe Palooka, Napoleon, more. A wonderful early example of our hobby's infancy.

Remember when you were a kid and some old geezer would see you reading comics and say "Hey kid, ya like funnybooks?" Well, this is exactly what he had in mind -- a true funnybook.

(WAS $250) NOW $225

PS - that's color loss on the Famous Funnies spine, not splitting.
