  1. From the several dozen I've read, the stories are reasonably OK, but there is no gore. DC really didn't do horror as such, and their crime books were pretty tame, so they barely changed their content when the code came in. Ironic considering their Bronze Age horror output, which was far more graphic...
  2. Excuse the delay in checking out this list and providing feedback. I'm missing three of those books. Men In Action 7 seems to have slipped through the cracks, for some reason. I remember when Heritage a few years ago were selling Atlas war books in batches of four or five consecutive issues in each title, and one I got outbid on was the latter Men In Actions (this was in a Sunday auction before Heritage changed it to the signature auction format. Most of the books were in high grade. Yes, I wish I'd gone berserk with them). Some of the later Combat Caseys or Kellys are noticeably tougher to find (missing one of each). Battle Action 15 was a bear to find. None of the above books were super-hard to pick up at one point in reasonable shape, but the supply certainly has diminished - I have a few copies of Men's Adventures 13 (one of my favorite war covers, because it's so unusual - the view from inside a tank looking outwards at an imminent onslaught), which was a book that seemed to turn up fairly often, but certainly not now. My favorite Heath covers (if I had to pick any, as all are great) would be War Comics 23 (a CGC 7.5 copy of that book ended at $900 on ebay recently, and frankly the buyer did ok at that price - should've bitten the bullet), War Comics 26, and also Battlefront 15 (never seen a copy of this book above FN). Heath remains my favorite war artist, but then I suspect he's everybody's..
  3. Bought two books from Jim and they arrived promptly, really well packed and as described. Buy with confidence!!
  4. I admit I hadn't heard that (origin) story. The Lizard is certainly a scary character for a kid. And thanks for the praise re the book.
  5. He's weirding me out lately. Did you see him take that Marvel in another thread?! I missed that, but if the Lizard featured in the book, it would make sense...
  6. Witches Tales 25 CGC 5.5 Cream to off-white pages. Old label, unpressed, good registration and strong colors. Very gruesome cover, even for the era. Asking a lower price than last time (and over 10% below GPA) - $2200 shipped. SOLD
  7. Amazing Spider-Man 44 CGC 9.6 White pages. Perfect registration, genuinely tough book in such a grade. The last sale according to GPA for this book in the same grade was $10,000. Asking $9,000 shipped.
  8. A couple of books this evening, ASM 44 CGC 9.6, and Witches Tales 25 CGC 5.5 Payment - Paypal preferred, bank transfer also okay. Packing - Book will be sent boxed, insured and trackable. Returns - No quibble as long as it's sent back within two weeks of receipt and is in the same condition as sent. Books on their way...
