    All right,   last  book  for  the evening!

    Captain  Midnight  24,  war  cover!

    And this  is  a  sharp  copy.   Flat  and  square,    decent  gloss,    tight  spine  and  CF on  the  single  staple,   white  pages.  There's  a  touch  of  general  wear,   and  one  scratchy  spot   about  1/8  x  1/2  along  the spine  BC,   and  that's   pretty much it.  

    Grab  a  Fawcett  war  cover  from  1944  for  $140

    You know, I have to wonder if that cover isn't some kind of inside joke about Jack Kirby.  The pitter patter of little feet made me wonder.  Seemed too obvious.  So I looked it up and I think that comic was published a few months before the birth of Kirby's 3rd child.  And I know he worked there.   And Hercules kind of looks like Kirby too.  It's worth researching further.

    The cover dialogue sold me. Will have to look into the potential Kirby connection.

    Mad  Magazine  44

    This  is   my  favorite  early  issue  of  the magazine,  I'll show you  why  in  a minute.

    First,   book  is  flat  and  square,   clean  with  tight  spine  and  CF,   no  bends on the BC,  this issue  is  before  the  fold ins  started,. 

    Small  splits  upper  and  lower  spine,   otherwise  quite   a nice  copy 

    Here's  why  it's  my  favorite.    The  FC  is  by  Kelly  Freas,  and  a gorgeous  Christmas  cover,   The BC  is  ALSO  by   Kelly  Freas,  and  another  gorgeous  Christmas  cover,  this   time   a  lovely  portrait  of   Alfred's  girlfriend,    Moxie.

    Both   are  posted  below,   enjoy!

    Asking  $30
