  1. NICE...that looks like an 8.0 or better....good price too...that IS the ebay copy ? I think the cartoonist story was also reprinted in Weird Wonder Tales but not certain.I wish I could have afforded it...I'll have to be happy with my 4.5.Everett has always been one of my favorites...but these Venus stories are just OFF THE CHART....I LOVE the stone men story...with the first class renderings of the international landmarks...wow.GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u P.S. Gonna slab it?

  5. Great cover! Did you win this in the last Comic Link auction? (they had a copy graded by PGX) Nope. Got this one off of ebay about 5 months ago. Thanks guys. Got this upgrade from the same person on ebay. Mystery Tales 19 I am not a big fan of Atlas in general, other than a handful of cool standouts...of which this is definitely one of them. Freaking awesome cover. Who did that cover ?....it looks like Angelo Torres.GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus)

  10. Anybody ake a peek at the FF4 on the Clink auction....8.0...BUT it's slabbed by the OTHER company.Bid is low and I'm betting it will stay low because of their horrible reputation.What if it ISN'T restored and is actually untouched like they say...someone will walk away with a fabulous deal.Any thoughts ?GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u

  16. NICE!!!!!!! This was one of the first stories I ever read. That page with the monster sculpture in front of the theater...classic Kirby! I remember staring at that thing for hours as a kid thinking how cool that was! I used to carry around the old digest-size reprint. Your #3...are you freaking kidding me??? Beautiful copy...do you have a grade on it? Letusknow... Harley graded it as a Fine, its close to a fine but I don't like the paper quality, quite brown. It was an interesting deal. Harley came to a local Edmonton comic show about 15 years ago. Our shows are quite small with local dealers and a few from Calgary so Harley's selection of comics was mind blowing. I gotta think he had a pretty good show as his booth was busy all weekend. I had just got back into collecting and had never spent more than $50 on a comic. I wanted the FF#3 but Harley was asking $300 U.S. When I said I couldn't afford it he asked if I had anything to trade. I did have a Batman 17, great WW2 cover, that I figured was about a VF. Harley asked me to mail it to him. I did but he only graded it a F and asked for more comics. I packed up Wonder Comics 11,13, both in about F-VF condition and shipped them off. Shortly after I received the FF#3. I have always felt the Batman17 was higher grade than the FF3 but perhaps not a VF. I love FF and #3 was a grail at the time but I regret the deal I made. I really liked the Batman 17 and the Wonder Comics are worth a fair amount. Wish I had just dug out my credit card and bought that baby and kept my other comics. Are you sure ? If you had pulled out the card it would have altered your life...spiralling you into an alternate reality in which everything you now know could be different .GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u

  24. I stayed up WAY past my bedtime and STILL got outbid on the Weist Phantom Stranger run ( 2-6).Que sera' sera'....I've been outbid more often than not...but then,lo and behold,to what do my wandering eyes perceive...but a mid grade copy of Menace # 1 with a buy it now on eBay.I don't have it yet but I was too excited to wait on posting.The writing that is on the back cover is probably what put it in my realm of possibility.GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u
