Ok, here's a few previews before I post them to the Gallery...  Some of these are really sharp--but then they should be.

Ken Kelley for the premier cover.

One of two or three really nice Sanjulians in the run so far.

Richard Corben's final cover art?

Easley seems to be a newer artist, but I've enjoyed his work on the Warrant books and the old D&D materials.

And of course there are a few Frazettas in the mix.

I'm sure it's no coincidence that the 2023 Annual looks a lot like the 1972 Annual.

Nice!

This weekend I was treated to the kindness of a fellow board member, @Makmorn, who saw that I was seeking the After Hours series en route to completing my Warren collection, and offered me the first three issues in excellent condition!  I won't say the price, but I will say that these are the first books for which I have paid more than $50 each--but for the condition they're in, he still made me what I considered to be a very generous offer!

It's that kind of thing that makes this board a great place to be.  May we all take care of each other like that.

My Comix International 3 also arrived today, but that's almost incidental to the After Hours acquisition.

A book from Makmorn is always going to be special examples of books. Dud he throw in a Frazetta autograph for you?

Stay away from giant rabid Samoan creatures,  they look mean.😂

The two other issues that feature the rounded top picture frame that I like.

Wow, great books.

If congress deemed internet sites were a public square this could change though.  For now you are correct.

Kav is this the new place to be?

Howdy. I would throw the damn thing out.

Initially i thought it was but it's weird that the adjacent pages ( that face the stain  when the book is closed) are totally normal.  

Then I would be in that 9.4 thought too .

If that is a stain , would be closer to an 8.5.

I had a 9.8 candidate once sent it in, came back 8.5 because of a pinhole stain on the cover.

Is that a stain on the interior pages?

Yeah I love those things. Mine still hanging on the wall right next to my Neal Adams original artwork.

Only one magazine from ECCC today... but finding a (relatively) cheap copy of this particular issue makes it a very good day:

Absolutely a tough book in any grade.

Have I won yet?😎
