  1. I wouldn't mind owning that copy. I'd need time payments, but I could go to £50 a week?
  2. Although Cat discussed this in another thread, and it's a fairly obvious choice, nonetheless it's my personal favourite S & K Red Skull splash page. I particularly like how evil and cadaverous the character looks here and how toned down his appearance became after the Golden Age, in comparison.
  3. +1 I've only just discovered this thread, and it's absolutely fascinating to see what was going on in the hobby, stateside, back when I started collecting in the 70s. A shame that no-one's posted anything from the UK.
  4. Bobbins, in English slang, means rubbish, terrible, , and so over here that combination has often been referred to as Frank Bobbins and Don Hack.
  5. The absolutely 'superb' artwork of Frank Robbins gave it away.
  6. Jimmers, just curious, over in GA I asked what it is that you particularly like about Daredevil 37?
  7. Huge fan of Wally Wood. Recognised the art style.
  8. A classic. One of the best imaginary stories and surprisingly dark in places, with a very sadistic Lex Luthor.
  9. I'd heard about that, but not the backstory. Interesting. However, I don't know if there's a British equivalent.
  10. I couldn't think of another company from the period that used Leroy-type lettering besides EC. That stumped me for a while.
  11. The Dynamic Adventures of Cheeks the Toy Wonder issue 3, fifth printing, SDCC variant.
  12. I wouldn't mind posting some more of my favourite Eisner splash pages, but I can't find a complete gallery anywhere.
