I love CGC'd 60's Marvels

This just came in yesterday. Its #36 from 1944. There are quite a few WAR references in this one. The Bugs, Porky, Elmer and Henry Hawk stories are pretty good, but the Sniffles and Mary Jane story was LAME.

You are awesome Flee !!! .....but what I wanna know is if I can trade in my Greggy 8700 for this NEW IMPROVED model???

Great era for Hulk and killer copies Yea Bill......20 cent copies seems like such an innocent and long ago time

Wow.....compared to whats been shown on here lately....this new book of mine is chicken droppings...... But .....its still whats new in MY collection.....so here it is...... Turok 20 from 1960 . Nice and flat, solid......bout a 7.0 - 7.5 I think Was advertised as an 8.0 and back cover too.......

I'm not 100 % sure, but I think the checker tops only came out in one year...1966, and it was on ALL the DC titles......so take your pick. May as well stick with the books you like to read most, although, I suppose you could have a "checker top" collection

Thats some good stuff there Dave. Some REALLY good stuff.

My sentiments exactly !!

Sorry to take so long to get back to you Jack. That Looney #5 is really nice. The artwork is very VERY COOL !!! I am hoping that artist did alot of the issues....cuz his work looks really good. Here is MJ and S from #85 (1948) and its easy to tell its not the same artist. Looking at Jerry B's Who's Who and trying to put a time line together Maybe #5 is Chase Craig, who drew the earliest stories including LTMM #1. If not, it's Armstrong.

Jack Wow.....that IS alot of people. Do you own alot of Looney books? I only have 6 all between 85 and 117

Don't believe so. It was a DC thing

Gotta love those checker top books !! (thumbs u

Sorry to take so long to get back to you Jack. That Looney #5 is really nice. The artwork is very VERY COOL !!! I am hoping that artist did alot of the issues....cuz his work looks really good. Here is MJ and S from #85 (1948) and its easy to tell its not the same artist.

They are ok. The writing is not as good as Disney stuff....but I am still enjoying them. Issue 85 is now my oldest one (1948) so not sure if the art was diff in the early years. I have 6 of these books now and the stories in each are the same . Bugs, Mary Jane and Sniffles, Porky, Henry Hawk and Elmer Fudd last.

Picked these up recently....cuz they were cheap....uh....I mean....inexpensive. Numbers are 85, 102 and 117 with front and back. The 117 is real pretty

Anyone ever see that old Danny Kaye movie called "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty"....? The place he works (in the movie) is very cool.....its a Pulp publishing business.....and a couple times he walks through the art dept. and you can see some of the artists working on their cover paintings.

Nice batch of pulps you got there

Almost finished with my Conan runs. Picked up these two just last week. The 4 is pretty.....the 8 is lesser. Also, I was reading this book called "All in Color for a Dime" ( a good read BTW) and the last essay is by Harlan Elison who talks about a comic he read as a kid called.....Jingle Jangle. He bragged about its wackiness so much I thought "I'm gonna get one of those". I had never read it before. Its OK.....not great but OK.

This one is probably my all time favorite cover. Even after all these years, when I look at it, I just think.....Whoa, "THAT".....is a comic book !!

Very nice book atlas.....course I'm partial to anything with a 10c on the front

What a great looking book. Congrats! I like your picture better than the book !! Maybe you can get THAT slabbed

Whoa !! Super cool cover Bill. That guy is layin a big time azz whoopin on that giant robot .....WITH A SPIKED BALL AND CHAIN !!!

Wow....I'm jealous. Thats one sweet set up you got mschmidt. I love organization

:grin:

Thats yours ??!!! I thought you were a girl........ That book kicks....

:o You got all those this week??? :o
