Yes, technically that's the last.  The ones that came after were published by George Vanderburgh and Bob Weinberg using the Arkham House and Mycroft and Moran imprints by permission of April Derleth.
2008 - The Shunned House (2nd edition)
2009 - The Macabre Quatro (4 volumes of Derleth weird fiction)
2010 - The Arkham Sampler (2 volumes reprinting all 8 issues from 1948-49)
2010 - Baker Street Irregular (should really be a Mycroft & Moran title...the M&M logo is all over this book)

But before these were the M&M revival of the late 90s, also due to George.  M&M hadn't published a book since 1982.
1998 - In Lovecraft's Shadow
1998 - The FInal Adventures of Solar Pons
2000 - The Original Text Solar Pons Omnibus Edition Vols 1-2

A couple M&M's today.  Now I want candy...
 

I’m getting close to finishing my League of Extraordinary Gentlemen set.  They’re all 9.8 except for the Bumper Edition vol 1 #1.  I’d really like to upgrade it if anyone wants to sell me one.  I don’t care what printing it is.  I tried sending in the Black Dossier to get graded and they said “Nope”. 

EERIE # 39- April 1972
From the Warren Magazines Index:
cover: Ken Kelly (Apr. 1972)

1) Eerie’s Monster Gallery: The Mysterious Men In Black! [Doug Moench/Richard Bassford] 1p [frontis]

2) Head Shop [Don Glut/Jose Bea] 6p

3) Just Passing Through [Steve Skeates/Rafael Auraleon] 8p

4) The Disenfranchised [J. R. Cochran/Tom Sutton] 10p

5) Dax The Warrior [Esteban Maroto & ?/Esteban Maroto] 8p   [story credited solely to Maroto]

            6) Yesterday Is The Day Before Tomorrow [Doug Moench/Dave Cockrum] 7p

7) Eerie Fanfare: Pity The Stranger/House For Sale/The Coming Of Apollo/Welcoming Committee [Greg Balke, Roy Decker, Gary Henry & Marcus Octavious/Steve Monsanto

& Jody Clay] 2p   [text stories]
8) Ortaa! [Kevin Pagan/Jaime Brocal] 8p


 
Notes: Another fine Ken Kelly Cover!  The best story & art was easily J. R. Cochran & Tom Sutton’s ‘The Disenfranchised!’  Maroto’s Dax character began an eleven chapter run in Eerie.  These stories had originally been published in Europe a couple of years earlier.  For this Warren run, the stories were translated and rewritten by American writers, none of whom were credited.  Apparently, each scripter got only one story to adapt so the quality of the scripts would range from quite good to so-so.

Looking forward to this one quite a bit, with the first installment of Dax I believe we finally enter the era of Eerie being rather heavily driven by relatively short-run serial characters.  It's a major shift that I think is what ultimately gives Eerie its own reputation and character, rather than being the book that shows up months when Creepy doesn't.  Up to this point, while we could point at small differences and some notable stories, it seems like having two titles was mostly geared to having the books stay on the shelf longer by splitting the content between two titles.
 

I can never hear Cecilia without cracking up.  And it's all Paul Simon's fault, actually.  The first time I saw him perform live, he reached the line "I got up to wash my face/ When I come back to bed someone's taken my place.  I said "Cecilia"..." only instead of following it with the normal line of "You're breaking my heart..." he instead went "I said Cecilia, What the F***?"
He very quickly sang the line again, correctly, but the whole audience was laughing pretty hard for a few seconds.

I actually got my uncolored copy of Cap shortly after I found out the books even existed... you sold it to me along with a few others!

Is it possible that they sold some returns on to local retailers / distributors cheaply on a no return basis? That would explain both the need for the obliterator stamp to clearly indicate 'you ain't sending this one back, chum' and also a re-price to enable it to be sold on easily by those without Ethels.  Of course, the fact that it's gone up in price would be pretty damned cheeky. 

at $85 shipped.

A couple solid sales this weekend:

VG, 1140.

810.  Pretty crazy for a true crime mag but very high grade plus Saunders plus Timely-Atlas

Not directly Duck related, but since Kelly did a lot of the early, classic Duck covers I thought this recent acquisition of mine might interest people here anyway:

18. A little blurry, sorry.

Not in any particular order, because they weren't saved that way.
 
 
 
 

Got these with them, but already have copies, so if you're interested 😉.

Jock is just sitting there chillin' and enjoying a milkshake comfortable in the fact that he's got a dame good to go whenever he wants. A baller move.

Excited to get my hands tonight on an extremely scarce relic of early 20s jazz age bohemia. An urban reaction to Capt. Billy's, perhaps, but very different in tone and content, from the heart of Greenwich Village and beyond, Cap'n Joey's Jazza-Ka-Jazza.  Joey Burten was quite the character.  This magazine would morph into Follies and a number of other "artists and models" magazines that pushed the envelope of good taste in the mid to late 20s.
A recent post on Cap'n Joey here:
