New "Mad imitator" just joined the collection this week:

 

Nice pickup edowens71! I only have one issue of Crazy in my stash, but I enjoy the horror flavored satire on most of their covers. The scan doesn't do my copy justice, because the black inks on the cover are much richer in person

Recent pickup.

 

That's a fantastic score of an absolutely impossible book! Well done!

Here's a recent addition from '52:

 

I always liked this cover and this is a nice copy.

With the action going to the left, it was a good choice to put the story panels at the bottom.

 

I have to agree, even if I'm kinda used to seeing them on the left side.

 

..... this is one of my favorite covers from Atlas..... the Everett story is kinda cool too..... GOD BLESS...

Awesome book Mike! That looks like a real stellar copy for the assigned grade. Congratulations

I'm kinda partial to skeleton covers myself;

 

An absolute classic! Very nice

I'm in da club

Jim, please post a shot of that house ad! That looks terrific!

 

...your House Ad is served GOD BLESS....

Very cool, thanks for that!

I wonder if the covers match up with every book that was out that month?

Like how they plugged JIUW too!

That's an awesome house ad inside of an awesome book! Congratulations on the wonderful score!!!!

Here's another recent arrival. Figured it would be an appropriate last post before I go to bed....

A recent return from CGC

 

 

7.0? Sounds like a lucky strike!

 

and another....

Here's another recent arrival....

Posted in the recent pre code thread, but this book belongs in this thread as well

Just got this beauty back from CGC

Here's another recent arrival from CGC

That is a cool cover (thumbs u

 

Man, that guy almost bowled a perfect game until that last set.

He should have quit while he was a head!

 

Great book!

Thanks everyone for the kind words (thumbs u

Been looking for a decent copy for quite a while, so I was pumped when this one made the grade I was hoping for.

Also, I knew I could count on Jay for the perfect pun It almost seems like the Undead thread should get going again with some more word play!

A recent return from CGC

I had previously owned a copy of this hard ot find book. This is a major upgrade and I am very happy to be getting this beauty:

Bravo and congratulations!!! Absolutely stunning

That's a real beauty!!!

Recent upgrade:

 

That's a very nice looking post-code Atlas that really doesn't pop up at all (in any grade). Congratulations!

PS: Just noticed Supernerds hand reflection on the slab makes it look like he's holding the shotgun too. Eerie!

Haha! Thanks Jayman

I noticed the same thing when I posted the pic. It is a bit surreal, and that was definitely one of those "happy" mistakes.

Apparently, I just wanted to make sure they were aiming the shotgun properly....

Hollingsworth

Not really a recent purchase, but I just received some books back from the slab factory. Felt like some of the results were a bit more strict than previous submissions, but overall, I'm still very happy

Thanks. I have a Shocking Mystery #51 that I hope to upgrade one day too. Great LB Cole covers!

 

One LB Cole I don't need a upgrade on is Guns Against Gangsters #8 which I have a CGC 8.0 or 8.5 (yikes! I don't remember which). If I find it I'll post a scan. I love that shark cover.

 

The Shocking Mystery #51 was the last one I needed to complete the run. I have neglected taking group shots of books for a while but I have that one:

 

 

I got a cheap fair copy and then got a decent upgrade shortly afterwards. I also got a nice scan of a killer copy and put it on a t-shirt! I need it's sister book - the Suspense Comics #9. I'll spend the $ for that one of these days.

 

Do you mean the GAG #6, with Toni swimming? That's the only one I need! I think the other shark cover is the Criminals on the Run #4.

 

Killer covers on those last 2 books too! (thumbs u

Awesome LB Cole run, and great group shot! Especially love the #50 & 51! Congratulations

That's a great cover. Never seen it before

 

 

 

Here's my pickup. First comic I've purchased in about 5 years.

 

One of my favorite covers from the run.

Congratulations!

Such a fantastic accomplishment

One beauty after another! Congratulations!!!
