MagnetoWR: Great stuff! What was this "Stan Lee Event" that yours was signed at? Do you know? I saw your group shot in another thread, hoped you'd post! dgarth: You're sitting on $$$, you know that.... right? Good stuff!

Thanks! I'm not a huge fan of the cover either. Not only are the blacks problematic, but there's the dark URC and there's a lot of white / tan on the cover that would show issues easily. Throw in that it's the "Marvel chipping era" and high grade copies aren't as common in this issue as others. If the good Doc was on the cover in some capacity then this book would have been worth 2x as much as it is today a long time ago. One thing about these Marvel Silver Age keys, no matter how much they go up, they don't fall down too much. GOOD LUCK!

I've been playing on this section of the boards for a bit now and haven't seen a thread for the 1st appearance of Doctor Strange and I think it's about time! So if you've got a copy of Strange Tales #110 that you'd like to post and share, this is the place! Here's my copy: (If this is a dupe thread, please feel free to ignore / delete me)

FYI - Looks like they are putting out a Canteen Kate collection: http://www.icv2.com/articles/news/25885.html

BTW - This is very cool! It was trendy to have CD's with books back then. I think I have a Megadeth book that came w/ a CD too....

Thanks! I swear I have more Hellina's somewhere. Sometime soon I'll have to go through my boxes of signed books and see what I can find. I've got a ton of cool books in there including a bunch of CHAOS! books. I have nearly every book they ever made, except for a bunch of variants towards the end and the stupid rare ones. I have a Chastity that's like 1 of only 5 that I got from their offices when I visited.

This one is en rte thanks to a boardie!

I dunno how hard some of these are to find, but I was putting comics away yesterday and pulled out a few books that you don't see that often. Here's a few pics: Danger Girl, of course. Then Adam Pollina's Hellhole followed by a bunch of Hellina issues, most of which are variants. I'm pretty sure I have even more Lightning Comics variants including a nude one but they may be signed and I keep my signed comics in another box. 90's Image series, Nine Volt I liked when it came out: Here's some random ones! Weapon Brown is Cable crossed with Charlie Brown - funny stuff! The Warrior Nun book is a 1/700 leather cover. Then there's the other book, I don't even know where I got it. Here's a bunch of More Than Mortal books. Great are in this series. Again, I've got more but they are signed and elsewhere: Shotgun Mary. These books stood out back then:

I bid on that GW Tales too, so don't feel too bad. I found out about that swipe from posting this cover on another board. I didn't realize it either! I haven't read that issue yet, as it hasn't arrived yet but I'll see what the shining knight reference is all about!

Funny how that works out. Congrats! I snagged this last week: And this was pointed out to me as a 1/2 swipe!

Fantastic Blue Bolt! Congrats! I love the LB Cole digest covers and hope to pick up more of them someday. Some pre-date his comic work. Enjoy!

Missed out on a key book this week, but this makes me feel a bit better: Guns Against Gangsters #7 V.2 #1

Killer books. It's a Tom & Jerry pinup-like collection. Fun stuff!

Did I neglect to post this one? Well, it just arrived 15 minutes ago!

These last few pics are total comic porn. Love it!

Love the action on that FIGHT #23 cover! Very cool! Congrats! (thumbs u

That's a great SPOOK #28! Congrats! That's one I haven't found or been able to get a copy I'm happy with just yet. Well done! Feel free to post your other recent pickups too. I'm way overdue to take a few group shots.

I didn't use the word PAIR lightly!

There is this pair: And I always get them mixed up in my head with this one: But a lot of the romance covers have similar themes and angles. The ones that are truly unique do stand out.

Really, not that many - but there are some that do have similar themes. Here's a pair that comes to mind that is a bit too close for comfort:

If I've posted this before I apologize, but this is a great blog to sub to as it goes back to the platinum age often: http://superitch.com/?p=39420 That specific entry has Space Detective #4 complete to read.

Thanks for looking! That's a really nice #47! A bit of a mis-wrap but great colors! Sometimes that cover tends to look a bit faded but that copy looks nice. And hey - you've got a #49! Sucks that some kid took a pencil to it, but otherwise looks pretty good! Yeah, the of the 2 I need the 41 comes up less often but it's the first in the run. 48's are more frequently up for grabs but I think I've slacked on that one because the cover is similar to another Cole cover I have. Here's a TC #48: And here's the one I have, ALL FAMOUS POLICE CASES #6:

Just snagged this one, so that's 1 less BLUE BOLT WEIRD TALES I need! (The white line is a scan imperfection)

Mine is better! Whoa dude... trippy......

Thank you sir! I can't wait for it. And you are correct, it IS a pain just to locate. As you can see from my sig like, I now only need 2 more to finish the double-run. One of those being the "White Hand Horror" cover that is also a tough one.
