  1. One staple on Fawcett books are not uncommon. Far as reprints, I don't think there are any Alan Lights around but it is worth checking. You might be better off finding a low-grade reader of this one though.

     

    Then perhaps not. 893scratchchin-thumb.gif

  2. Very cool that you have the Church copy, Timulty. thumbsup2.gif With the book in hand, is it obvious why people sell their souls to own one (in terms of freshness, gloss, color strike etc), or does it look like your basic very-high-grade copy?

     

    It isn't as stunning as some Church Copies I have seen. On the other hand this one is:

    I should have this Church copy by the End of the month, first of next month. cloud9.gif

  3. Well, since there have been no Captain Marvel Adventures.....Here is what I have so far, not pictured are #87(CGC 8.5) and 150(2.0):

    Not much but I am getting there. I figure I will add another 4 to 6 before the end of the year. And, hopefully, another Mile High Book and a pre-bat Detective.

     

     

    great books Timulty, so does that "Wheel of death" on # 71actually work when you spin the book around ??

     

    It comes close, after you drink too many shots of tequila. I have 2 copies because the raw one is The Church Copy and #131 is one of The Crowley Copies.

  4. Shoot me now for this off-topic question - i'm curious to see where my fellow BA horror nuts think that the swamp-like creature in phantom stranger 14 fits in to the swamp thing mythos? any thoughts?

     

    Didn't that come out two or three months after HOS 92? Then again, so did HOM 195 and Overstreet breaks that one out. I guess you could consider all three issues Swamp Thing prototypes. confused-smiley-013.gif

     

    Actually, HOS 92 counts as first appearance of Swamp Thing(Particulary since they added it to the canon later in the series). Anything prior would be a proto-type.
