    I just keep hoping that in Axe- fashion he’s gonna make some randomly unexpected return and carry on like nothing happened. 
    He may not have the depth of knowledge on the subject as say others do, but he is a gifted writer and has really  shown himself to be a quick-study.  And perhaps most importantly, he was an integral part of starting what has been an AMAZING thread, and a timeless gift to current and future Warren fans alike.  Definitely owed (along with the other contributors) a huge debt of gratitude.
    Like you all, praying for the best here.
    Hope to see you back in the saddle, Axe👍🏻

    I'll chime in on this.  Yes, we did change the minimum age from 16 to 18 years old.  Here is what is written in the terms of use regarding nudity.  Before posting this, I will share my view.  Full frontal nudity may be going too far.  If it is done in a tasteful manner, or is at a distance and really doesn't reveal all, it will probably pass.  
    Nude images: Given that this is a comic book collecting forum, some leeway for actual comic imagery is provided, more so than non-comic related imagery. Some nudity is allowed when it is comic related and done in a tasteful manner. However, there are many comics that are quite explicit and aren't allowed to be posted here.

    OtherEric reacted to Albert Tatlock in The Distribution of US Published Comics in the UK (1959~1982)   
    Let me chuck my two pennorth in here.
    I believe that the first batch of Marvels arriving in 1960 numbered three, and not two.
    Below are pics of probably the first 4 pre-hero Marvels I purchased, all at the same time from the paper shop at the bottom of the street where we lived at the time, which until then had been the source of my and my brother's weekly Topper and Beezer, Certainly the first purchased 'set' of the four titles of which I was them aware, Amazing Adventures escaped my notice until # 3 suddenly popped up in a nearby newsagent, which doubled as a sweetshop, situated as it was immediately opposite a primary school.
    Three of them are cover dated June 1961, but the JIM is May. At the time, JIM always lagged a month behind the other three titles, a situation, I noticed, which continued until at least the end of 1961.
    The reason why can be found in Mike's Amazing World of Comics, where the release date for the JIM is given as 28 February, and the other three as 7 March, just a week apart.
    The June JIM, #69, was not released until 6 April, so would have travelled with the July TOS, TTA and ST. I picked up all four of those simultaneously the following month.
    Now turning to the May 1960 issues, before the bug had bitten me, but Mike gives the on sale date of JIM # 58 and Gunsmoke Western # 58 as 29 January.
    The on sale date of Strange Tales # 75 is also 29 January, which tells me that it would have been sent with the two May issues.
    Enough to convince me, at least.
    QED?

    I think that one might be partly driven by the Lovecraft story with Bok art inside... not all the heat on pulps is cover based yet.
    Or it could be the poor man's January 1950 Startling Stories.

    I agree. This and the related title pulps have some of the most awsome covers in the genre. Some of my most favorite Finlay covers. It seemed that almost every flea market I went to had these if there were pulps there. I bought up all the ones I liked and even upgraded several times. My under copies just sat in my for sale boxes even at very low prices. Not any more. They have pretty much dried up and the prices are now 10 times what I was asking even a year or so ago.
    Since I have so many high grade ones, I considered grading them but the cost, dwindling storage space, and the fact I’m not selling them have held me back.
