I've always liked this cover. Great example of the value to be had in these secondary titles that most tend to ignore.
-

Sounds like one could be about them vanishing, the other from the perspective of said vanishers. Either way someone was maybe a bit lazy that month, at least when it came to coming up with a title.

A few pics of last year’s show that I still had on my phone.

Agreed, it’s an odd one. I always blamed that on the alien in the foreground. If you ignore them it’s less odd but still out of place for JIM. May be a pre-implosion issue that they were using up, but this would still be odd for JIM and would have had to come from another title’s back log. That, or they got a head start on the sorts of stories we’d see shortly in very early TOS and TTA.

I thought the same thing when I saw yours pop up a split second ahead of mine! For whatever reason this daily number festival has gotten me back into logging in more regularly. Hope it lasts! I do miss the boards, just difficult to take the time some days...

One of my favorite shows of the year, already looking forward to it!

September 16-17, 2023, staying at the Embassy Suites at least one more year!

Well, if we are on #48 then...
-
-
So much to agree with here.

I've been watching the countdown via the daily updates I get, and since I just got my JIM #45 back I wanted to belatedly show it off on the day of 46. Had a hell of a time finding the JIM #46, and I am not crazy about the page quality but wanted at least a placeholder at my target grade.
-
I covet this #46 if you ever decide to rehome it.

Congrats on the scanner upgrade! Those are great books. I’ve been spending a growing chunk of my budget on these Atlas books that vanished in the implosion. Not sure what to call them, I often go with some variation of “secondary titles” in comparison with the survivors JIM and ST from the era. This sort of in between late Atom age/early Silver Age Atlas is fantastic stuff.
-
for 2023 dates soon, this has been my favorite show of the year lately.
-
TTA #22 is one of the least common in the run, in my experience. Finding a nice one is even tougher.
-
-
Spent more than I planned to, but wasn't going to let it go.
-
Thanks for posting those. That AA #1 would be a grail for me, love that title and to have the #1 from that pedigree would be a centerpiece of any PHM collection.
-
I would tend to agree with her for these less common books. If only I had bought one of the TTA #13s I saw at Chicago shows in the late 80s and early 90s. But I was holding out for a higher grade…
-
We’ve had some fantastic shows in Dallas, particularly Fan Expo but even some of the smaller shows. There are definitely buyers.
-
Dallas again? I wasn’t able to attend after all , and would love to have it nice and centrally located again.
-
Congrats! Tough book, and good eye appeal for the grade.
