  1. Nice! While I'm a pre-code guy, these post-codes are very tempting as the artwork on the covers get very nice towards the end of the runs. The guy on that MT 135 looks like it could be modeled after Stan Lee! And that WoF 6 is creepy with that ghost floating over the water! (thumbs u

     

    This has always been one of my favorite covers. Everett :cloud9:

    Everett's best post-code cover for sure. (thumbs u

     

    Here are a few more of my fav Everett covers:

     

     

    This one is similar to the one discussed. I especially like the claw-like branch grabbing at the boat.

    Always found this one pretty spooky.

    This one also has a nice feel to it.

    I find Everett's best quality is his ability to create a great emotional feel to his covers. When I look at any of these I say to myself "I'm sure glad that isn't me".

     

    This one isn't technically great as the monsters are pretty hokie, but it really has a great feel. I'm glad I'm not one of those astronauts.

  3. I just changed my avatar for the first time since joining the Boards in celebration for acquiring a mid grade (about 5.5) copy of one of my Atlas grails:
