Sabertooth

Yow! This needs its own thread.

I think I first recall seeing Suydam in Epic, though I later learned he'd done stuff for DC. To bad he never got a chance to work consistently on a regular title, at least not that I remember.

Sterling, if you have not read twisted tales, get them RIGHT NOW! Some of the finest horror comics ever written!

Yep, and better than a ton of the stuff that's been put out in the past 20 years from any genre. Unbelievably cheap, too. Pacific must have wildly overproduced and had a lot of backstock in their warehouses when they went under. I clicked around at Mile High a bit and you can pick up the entire Pacific catalogue in NM for a few hundred. If anyone knows any kids who like comics, some choice Pacifics would make a good cheap gift.

Now these were a treat!

 

And of course those are two Pacifics that I'm missing, and Mile High isn't offering them. I'll have to look around a bit. The price on most of the rest of the Pacific line is dirt cheap. Under cover in some cases for NM.

Great examples sabertooth!

Although I would prefer to see what you have in your collection rather than stuff pulled from Chuck's site. No offence intended, I just think it's more interesting!

Glad you liked them. Gimme some time. I need to get the scanner working and a photobucket set up. Of the covers I've posted I've got some sweet, raw NM+ white copies of Demon Dreams #1, and Twisted Tales #1-3, and #5. Can't believe how cheap they are at Mile High. Oh well, it's a buyer's market.

 

I met Stout, Wrightson & Kaluta at a show in Austin a few years back (along with Tim Bradstreet & the guy that does Hero Bear). All very cool people. Picked up this Stout sketch.

 

Nice Stout sketch. I've picked up a few over the years. Some Kaluta too. Both are great guys.

Bill once let me use his name to call Bernie Wrightson on the phone to pitch a project. Bernie was very nice, though the pitch went nowhere. Unfortunately his original stuff is too high dollar for my wallet. Got a set of nice limited edition prints once that I have framed and hanging.

Captain America.

Hulk can't carry Thor's hammer. Cap can. And Thor will follow Cap to the ends of the Universe.

You couldn't make Hulk carry anything he didn't want to.

I can see a Copper Age forum becoming an infinite debate about what books are actually Copper Age and if there actually is a Copper Age. Kinda like this thread. I think it would get old really fast.

I'd say the Copper Age began with the advent of direct sales comics (1979ish) and ended around the time of Youngblood #1 or the Death of Superman, give or take.
