A run I wish I had Ditto! (worship)

It could be worse. I could have a fancy for big, muscle-bound hunks with green skin and ripped purple jeans.

This week I finished a run I've been working on for three years -- all the Tarzan covers from Tip Top Comics (1936-1940).

Frazetta and Williamson. I love their work together! One of my favorite covers. It's funny how the chick's "80s Hair" looks futuristic for the 50s.

Thanks Sharon! Yeah, no creepy fascist scribblings on this one - just distributor scribblings.

Love that cover!!

Me too (obviously). I just ordered the last two issues I needed to complete my Tarzan cover run - can't wait til they get here.

And I picked up this too.

My first real Church copy! As soon as get a chance I'm cracking this one out.

Here's my one Comic Connect win.

That's a great cover!

NIce! Never really noticed how cool that cover was before!

I'm not gonna debate fair use cause honestly I am not sure what exactly that means beyond my limited reading on it. Hopefully no one has a problem with it but I'll gladly yank the scans(if Arch doesn't first) if it becomes an issue. Until then enjoy!!! Don't get me wrong, I'm enjoying it! But it would very, very, very bad if you were to also post the original, uncensored B&W Frost Giant's Daughter by BWS from Savage Tales 1 (as opposed to the censored sans-nipples color version from Conan 16). That would be very bad. Just sayin...

RedRaven, I think it's a cool idea but reproducing an entire copyrighted story on a commercial website is probably not fair use. Most of the Avon material like the Crom story is public domain now, but anything owned by Marvel is not. That said, I have to agree with Bill, Red Nails is BWS at his best on Conan. Dark Horse also did a nice color reproduction recently, but I think I prefer the original B&W as it was intended for Savage Tales - his intricate linework doesn't get lost. Great story!

Awesome Cimm! I have a B&W reprint of the third Crom store that was published a few years ago, but I've never had a chance to read the second. Thanks for posting this. In answer to ComicsareFun's question, there were only three Crom stories. I believe this a complete listing of their publishing history: June 1950 - Out of This World #1 - "Crom the Barbarian" (1st Crom story) July 1950 - Out of World Adventures (pulp) #1 - reprints "Crom the Barbarian" (1st Crom story). August 1950 - Out of This World #1, 2nd printing (No month on cover, different back cover) - reprints "Crom the Barbarian" (1st Crom story). November 1950 - Strange Worlds #1 - "Spider God of Akka" (2nd Crom story) December 1950 - Out of this World Adventures (pulp) #2 - reprints "Spider God of Akka" (2nd Crom story) April 1951 - Strange Worlds #2 - "The Giant from Beyond" (3rd and final Crom story; not Giunta art)

I second that!!!! (thumbs u Glad you guys like it. (thumbs u I want to find a beater copy of Strange Worlds #1 so I can scan the second Crom story.
