The_Captain

One of the most iconic covers of the Golden Age!

Here is what I have so far and I´ll start uploading covers in a few moments.... The collection is far from complete or perfect, but I try.... Many thanks to all the boardies that have helped me with this project and anyone who is interested in the Cap, Jr., Mary an Co. (thumbs u

Some time ago I discovered my passion for Captain Marvel (yes, the original one, not Marvel Comics´ name steeling figure from the bronze age). Not only is he one of the greatest superheroes of the Golden Age, but he also has a lot of potential in becoming famous and popular in modern times again, once DC starts to care about this huge treasure it owns. Anyway, in my opinion, Cap Marvel, Jr. and Mary M. had some of the best GA covers, which unfortunately are not very much appreciated. Sure, some are not that glamourous as others and over time some of the covers and stories turned out to be more...."simple", but those Marvels never lost their place in pop culture. Enjoy.

VERY SWEET!!! I'm still on my hunt for a SC22. Thank you and welcome to the club (thumbs u Do you have a pic of your new copy?

Congrats on those books. The 17 has quite nice eye appeal for its grade (thumbs u

although it´s not one of the most famous Raboy covers, it is one of my favorit covers Great buy (thumbs u

Awesome George! What grade is the AA16 and is the SC22 your 7.5 copy? Thank you The AA is next to my 5.0 copy. I didn´t want the AA to look too shabby next to his follow-up .

That either one heavy duty scanner or the brightest colors on a 28!!. WOW !! Looks very rich in color. Nice!

Since we went from 5.0 to 5.5, I thought I might join the club with a 6.0

Then I did something that I have wanted to do for a very long time....... I took the AA16 out of its case...

This picture is of some better quality, but is not really straight and next to some other dirt

Here is something I promised to do some time.... While I was looking for some books, I got these two babes in my hands and decided to take some pictures with my phone. Unfortunately they did look better on my phone than they did on my computerscreen. However, here they are......

definite scam, one of our very own board members owns that 3.5, won it in the comic connect auction He pictured a different copy, not the CC 3.5

(thumbs u

Does anyone know if a board member got the Tec 28 cgc 3.5 that was offered on Ebay a few days ago?

Baily covers I wonder how Whiz Comics would have turned out, if Baily would have drawn the Cap covers

It seems like the SC22 hype is pretty much over, as this thread´s been dead for quite some time

Just in time for Christmas! That´s a great present to yourself, Bob!

Just got the update..... There´s gonna be a SC#22 in cgc 8.5 with cr to ow-pages in C-Links Feb auction! Will be interesting to see what price it´ll reach

It´s been a pleasure. Always willing to help a great person achieve his goal (thumbs u

CONGRATS Bob ! ! ! Getting closer and closer to your final goal (thumbs u

Almost certainly Morris Gollub. *check* GCD agrees. Jack You´re right. I remembered Kellys name in combination with the christmas stories in the funnies. Looks like he drew the stories only. Thanks for letting us know (thumbs u

I believe it was Walt Kelly who did the cover.
