Thanks, BTW. Now I'm looking for this copy.

Sheena was beautiful, but she didn't get tied up much. LOL.

Yep, I like the greens better on #15 too, but the pose Ann has on #12 may be the sexiest of the GA.

I recently picked these three copies of Fight #59 & Kaanga #12 &#15. The colors pop on these, especially Fight #59. I've seen that particular copy be almost washed out before, so I snagged it when I saw how bright the reds were on this one. The Kaanga's speak for themselves. Two very curvy girls that are easy on the eyes.

New GGA in today! X-posted in the Fiction House thread.

Here's a link to that auction with final prices. Lots of White Mountain pedigrees mixed in, and some pretty high-end books sold. Potter & Potter Auction

Absolutely, I hope they got a big raise. Pure marketing genius.

In the case of Fiction House, I believe that it thrived off the popularity of its "big six" titles. Jumbo, Jungle, Fight, Wings, Rangers, and Planet Comics, with the first five being primarily war and jungle-themed titles. Once the popularity of these main titles waned after WWII and horror and crime gained popularity I don't think the company was able to pivot and come out with a popular horror or crime title to successfully produce enough profit to remain viable. However, it appears they may have tried with the introduction of the Ghost title and The Spirit, but it wasn't enough to compete with the fantastic gorry covers of EC and others. Just my two cents.

Thanks, I was about to post that as I was looking through the dates at MCS as well. Seems like Fiction House was putting out pulps every other month at that time, and Planet #65 was the only comic released in 1951. It appears in 1952 and 53 they released comics quarterly before they stopped the title altogether. Odd that #65 was the only release of the entire year in 1951.

Are you sure the publication date is correct for the pulp? I feel like the comic was published before that.

Kinda favors Yondu from Guardians of the Galaxy.

Awesome! What is that from? Pulp?

I've been wanting this issue since the moment I first saw it. Planet has so many great covers, but this is one of my favorites.

Recent pickup. x-posted in the Fiction House thread.

I'm always a huckleberry for 75-year-old white page Fiction House books, especially if they are bondage or GGA covers.
