The Blonde Phantom had appearances in the issues 2- 4 of these books.
More adventures with Blackstone the Magician, all stories I enjoyed.
It's kind of hard to get them straight because they jumped from company to company, but this one was published by EC.
Blackstone Magician Detective #1, there is a nice Moongirl picture in the back, advertising Moongirl and the Prince #1.
It's a low grade copy (Obviously) with supple pages (except for the lower right corner). An oddball for EC, for sure, only 1 issue was printed by them. Cover is split about 2 inches and is detached, there is some tanning inside the cover.
Fair? But not too easy to find. An incomplete sold on eBay recently for $22, I'll ask $40 for a complete copy.
Take it

What comic is this from?

This thread would account for ~1 day of posts (we're at 1368 or so and eyeballing that chart shows only a few days above 1500 since conversion). Given we are 13 days from the launch of the new board, this thread accounts for probably something around 7% of posts since the conversion. So, I agree that post count is not the sole metric to measure board activity. It would seem that posts ex-threads about the conversion would show a more pronounced decline.

Here are a few pics that compare our replicas to the originals that I had in photobucket:

@jimjum12 Boardmember Shrevy produces some of these repros and they are quite nice. I have the Black Cat Mystery 50 repro copy from him and is great to flip through while leaving my original copy untouched!
Thanks Jayman! Yes, we have done a number of our "Flashback Replicas" over the past couple years. They are produced from my personal collection and start as 600 DPI scans which are then cleaned up. Sometimes, i have had to source an image from fellow collectors. My cover to Black Cat 50 had some problems and Jayman helped me out with a scan. I have not used the digitalcomicmuseum or similar because those scans do not provide high enough resolution. We do restore our scans. I'll post some images later this evening next to the originals for comparisons. Most of our sales come through Diamond.

My company, Canton Street Press, produced Moon Girl #5 (our first replica). We have or are in the process of doing the entire Moon Girl run. The run will also be collected in a hard cover book once completed. A handful of EC books are in the public domain and Moon Girl is one of those series. We research each book we do with the US Copyright Office.

Is there a way to click on a thread and go to the latest unread post? I am viewing this on an ipad now and also use a desktop.

Is there a way to change the contrast in the colors on the forum? Maybe I am getting old, but I find the white contrasted by really light grey hard on my eyes.

I was trying to find an example, but some Canadian comics were edited/censored. I seem to remember Lady Luck #89. The US version prominently features a handgun pointed at Lady Luck. The Canadian version removes the handgun from the cover entirely. I passed on a Canadian version a couple years ago and now wish I owned it for just that reason (or at least a scan). Anyone have a copy to show to help me prove my memory is not bad? I also remember the editing of other firearms on some covers (but not all), but cannot remember which ones.

It also means that he'll need to turn his inventory at least 10 times annually.
In that example, he would turn his inventory 5x per year, not 10x. $100k of retail inventory at $50k cost. Rev is $500k with COGS at $250k. So, inventory turns would be $250k annual COGS divided by the $50k of inventory or 5x.

Was Pep comic's first anti nazi cover (marked by swastica) really as late as #19 in July 1941? I'm surprised by that. What was that publishers first swastica cover published?
If you mean MLJ when you say publisher, it would be the Top Notch #2 that has been the subject of much of the debate in this thread.

Here are two war back covers. The first is WWII vintage and the second (my favorite) in Korean War vintage.

All-American 5 has a cover featuring Brits fighting Germans. If it really has an anti-fascist German interior story, then under Cat's reasoning it might well be a contender for first anti-German war cover.
That's a WWI cover as evidenced by the "1917" on the cover.

Okay!
Two more tonight, just as thank you to those of you hanging out tonight.
Teenage Temptations 8
Coverless copy, interior complete
Classic Matt Baker cover is long gone, but the interior is chock full of Baker art.
Coverless, first fold split from lower spine to an inch or so above the lower staple. Some spine roll to boot. Offwhite pages, CF firmly attached.
Cheap way to get a classic.
Asking $10
-
Hollywood Secrets 2
Cover and 9 page story by Bill Ward, plus a Reed Crandall story to boot.
Big sub-type crease FC, bit of spine roll, general wear, small corner off upper RH FC.
Still plenty of gloss, tight spine and CF, offwhite pages.
This is a rerun from a previous thread, let's price it to move, shall we?
Take it home for $25

I want to read about the mystery of raining fish! What comic is this?

Flipping comics isn't a good use of her time. Have her get an interesting job. Start a charity. Something that sets her apart.
Not saying that I'd go the comic route, but starting and managing a business qualifies as an "interesting job".

Were the Supersnipe stories ever reprinted?
Not to my knowledge ....
Calling Shrevvy!
I didn't see this nine months ago when it was posted. comicdey and I did speak about Supersnipe. I did some research and the title was renewed by Street & Smith. The comics are still under copyright and absent getting a license, won't see print (by us anyway)

tentative per PM. If I am reading the "piece missing" correct, the Shield and Hangman stories are complete. If so, I'll take it. If a tentative "I'll take it" is not allowed, I'll repost once I get clarification. -
