    They are definitely better for the most part than the cover art on the Black Lizards from the first revival in the '80's, although I will always be grateful for their efforts. I still read Black Lizards today, although I always prefer reading an original vintage paperback.

    Lots of excellent covers there. "Fright" is the king of the hill in that group as far as value/desireability imho. Looks like a real nice copy too

    One thing for sure about 1950's stories... she really needed to get smacked around a bit to fall for the dude. Not sure how that would play today although a pretty standard noir element.

    One of my favorite Clyne covers and the return of another old friend I had in my 1st collection that I sold off. I dug Coppards outlook on the supernatural 🤘

    This is actually the latest Heritage Sale, and a much more comparable copy. The Ebay one actually has less creases and marring but a bit more missing. Still the point is that this is the Marvel Comics #1 of Marvel pulps and a fairly presentable copy can't pull $300. That says to me that all the comics guys aren't going running to buy pulps. Even if this is considered somewhat common, it would only take a fraction of a fraction of GA collectors to wipe out the supply.

    Love that cover. My second favorite Super Science just behind this one.

    Nice! There seem to be a good amount of devil covers out there to hunt down. A recent pickup got me. That darn devil always seems to be smiling…
