I have the complete set of the Australian comic set THE RAVEN, created by Australian Artist Paul Wheelahan in 1957 and printed by Young Merchandising.

The final four CGC graded STRANGE ADVENTURES Australian edition (for the moment - more next year) are shown here. I am particularly please with the Grades of 7.5 and 7.0 since it is very difficult to find good quality comics from this era in Australia, and also since they were printed on cheap newsprint paper and b/w inside.

Three more Australian issues of STRANGE ADVENTURES. I have had 10 issues graded etc recently. Will show the remaining 4 soon. And YES, I am aware of the change in policy regarding Foreign editions.

Three of my newly graded and encapsulated AUSTRALIAN version of STRANGE ADVENTURES. NOTE: CGC labelled STRANGE ADVENTURES No. 32 (Aust. Ed) as House of Mystery #53 due to its cover image, against my specific request that the label be titled Strange Adventures (which is clearly labelled on the cover). Also, I am not happy with the glare on the left of each image, since I do pay $5 per image.

Two newly acquired AUSTRALIAN versions of Strange Adventures No.13 [US #56] and No. 42 [US#87]

One of the Australian versions of "Strange Adventures" that I will soon get graded by CGC. This issue, No. 32 Australian copy, does not exist in the US versions but is a reprint copy of House of Mystery #53

No, as I said, AUSTRALIAN . I live in Australia, not Austria! This is a pre-decimal comic published in 1958 and priced 1 shilling. Australia changed from pounds, shilling & pence to Australian Dollars in 1966.

Here is the Australian version , numbered No. 37 and priced 1/- (one shilling). Of note is the missing man with the blue suit and the footprint is much darker.

Some of my newly acquired Australian editions of STRANGE ADVENTURES.

I've just bought these Australian versions of Strange Adventures from a UK auction. I am looking at getting most of these graded by CGC next year.

I have now managed to get another Australian Edition of Strange Adventures [US #31] Aust. #6.

I now have 5 x Australian version of Strange Adventures CGC graded. They are B/W inside on cheap newsprint so it is difficult to get high grades.

Apparently, in the AUSTRALIAN reprint versions, there is only 1 x Ape issue No. 31 (out of 43 issues) price at 1/- (one shilling). Don't have a copy but would dearly like to own. Again any Australian issues out there for sale?

I mainly use the Australian eBay for the Australian versions of Strange Adventures. But they are very RARE and being old 1950's newsprint, it is hard to get good copies. I also use the US eBay site as some do turn up in the US. I am not collecting the US versions, only the HTF Australian reprint copies.

Australian versions of Strange Adventures. If any one has copies of the Australian version and maybe willing to sell, please reply.
