    I know, right! Now I have an excuse for buying two more. Three more, if you arrange it right! Actually,If you arrange it really right then you'll need 4 more...

    I think it was Black Hood #19 (Summer 1946) right before it transitioned to Laugh Comics.

    Great cover. A while back I had a chance to buy the original art. Do you know if it's still available? I was thinking of commissioning a recreation, but if the original is available...

    Here's an oddball book I picked up recently. It contains a stripped copy of a 1959 Archie book.

    Mine too. That cover prompted my brief flirtation with the idea of collecting squid covers a number of years ago, but I never picked up a copy Did you develop a squid cover index before giving up? 'Cause I have no idea what the over/under is for number of GA squid covers. 7? 81? No clue.... I'd say at least over 10, probably around the 15 number mark. 143ksk should be able to give us an approximate number. That sounds about right - I had a list culled from browsing through the Gerber guides once, but I've lost it. Are you including only squids or all cephalopods in general? The type of cephalopods that are most common on covers are neocoleoidea (which would include squid and octopus). To my knowledge there are no covers that include the shelled cephalopods such as the (many chambered) nautilus. I think there are at least 15 octopus/squid covers. All Top 16, Terrors of the Jungle 20 and The Famous Funnies above are the 3 nicest IMO.
