  1. Is there a thread with all these eBay user IDs gathered in one tidy place?
  2. Great book, super-speedy shipping with excellent packaging! Good on ya, Sharon!
  3. I never realized this was Kane before. I guess if I would have looked closer I would have noticed Kane anatomy with the Vision and Scarlett Witch. But in the original cover, stuff like Thor's left hand is far more Romita to me. What stories are in that book? I've never seen it before. Even stranger is when you compare the two, they were inked by two different inkers - the annual looks like Esposito and the Avengers #122 was by Romita. Lots of obvious differences like Thor's hands, Thor's face, etc. Did Esposito ink it first, then Romita got a hold of it before publication? Strange. Or was it vice versa and someone lightbox it from the #122 art for the Annual?
  4. Kane/Romita or Kane/Janson? Tough call which I prefer...
  5. And I think I have a #43 - I'll check & scan tonight.
  6. That's such a great cover. In the Marvel Visionaries: Gil Kane TPB, Kane says that's his favorite cover. Can't disagree. http://www.comicvine.com/marvel-visionaries-gil-kane-marvel-visionaries-gil-kane/37-278803/
  7. I wholeheartedly approve of a Gil "Sugar" Kane thread!
  8. WWT #7 is an essential book for any Gerber/Defenders fan! (thumbs u
  9. All of the Headmen originally appeared in pre-hero books - all three stories were reprinted in Weird Wonder Tales #7 where Gerber saw them then decided to make them Defenders villains. Love the Headmen saga!
  10. Love that #14 is so obviously heavily inked by Tom Palmer, but only Lieber signed it - just like his brother, that Larry!
  11. On another note, I went on the Marvel Wikia to double check my issue numbers above and notice the (badly cropped) scan of #55 they have on the site is the copy I just bought a few months ago! http://marvel.wikia.com/Journey_into_Mystery_Vol_1_55 My copy: http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Board=16&Number=5331299&Searchpage=4&Main=30407&Words=El+Toro+Rojo&topic=0&Search=true#Post5331299 Meaningless, but kind of a shock to see! That slut of a book gets around!
  12. "The Martian" from JIM 57 & 58 - they even teased his return in #57, which was highly unusual. Poor guy didn't even make the cover on either.
  13. Going from the subject line, Swampy was the only one who was really "doing it" (with Abby). Seriously, Gerber is/was the MAN.
  14. Hmmmm.... http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Board=16&Number=5331299&Searchpage=4&Main=30407&Words=El+Toro+Rojo&topic=0&Search=true#Post5331299
