This man is a red-blooded american *salute*

Thanks for the response. Browsing their website, can't see really what they have, but it looks like a sale will be coming up in a few months! All Golden/Silver/Bronze Age and Wall comics: 25% off! I might have to get over on that side of the mountains

Love these covers. What song is it on that Christmas Funnies 5?

Almost always the case for me as well. Actually got lucky last week and came across a small stash at a shop's dollar bin of early 50's little lulus. Hey, I take what I can get sometimes Are there any decent shops in Seattle that anyone knows of?

Oh wow, you re right. The iron sword and has copyright 1989, and the book says it was published in 1986. I'd always assumed they marked the reprints. Thanks!

Exactly. I picked up this book (and several others) in multi-pakcs from K-mart in 1993, and didnt realize it was a reprint until years later (at which point I threw it away, kinda wish I had kept it now). Going through my batbooks, and I still have a Batman 399 that I'm positive came out of those multi-packs, but it doesnt say anywhere in or on it that its a reprint.

They look pretty sharp, got them watched.

Supes 23 no question. That cover is just.....amazing.

I'll have to dig through my old boxes again I recently gave a box of newer books to a friends son, and as I was showing him how to bag then, I found a fun piece of trivia. An archie book from the mid 80s has the girls commenting on Archie Snowsurfing. If I remember right, snowboarding in the mid 80s was still pretty new, and not many people were doing it/aware of it, so it was fun to see it on a archie cover early enough that there wasn't even a set term for it yet.

Haven't really had the chance to sit down and read it yet, but it looks like it takes place at near some place called Hart's Island, and later mention leaving a bar and walking to 130th street. Can't pull out a city name yet, the book's a bit brittle, and looks like some tape was tried to fix it some time ago making is slow going.

It was a series of these BS cash grabs that slowly pushed me out of comics. Supes wasnt dead, we had years of funeral for a friend shenanigins, with who of these 4 mystery heroes might be superman? The Cyborg? John Steel? Some Robot? Or a horrible teenager? Knightfall. Knightquest. Knightsend. The last decade of spider-man is all fake news, the REAL spiderman died around issue 149 and the spidey you all grew up reading was just a clone! Oh lordy.

Exactly. And anything CLOSE to that amount, you need to insure.

Not a pulp per say, but I love the cover and figure this is the best place to share it.

Is there any good resource to compare GA books and how they've grown/depreciated over the last few decades? Other than getting a pile of oversheets and comparing

So you're saying I have a chance!?

Can't quite think up a suitable "ill get you, you dirty rat" joke to go with this crime book

Finally got my first precode EC, and it's gorgeous. Happy to finally reach this small milestone

Sorry for the barrage of questions, after making the post I started reading through this topic now feel a bit insensitive. Sorry for what happened to your store, and I wish you the best!

There's a cover-less copy of that book in the top right I have my eye on Good choices all around. edit: I'm wrong, disregard, wrong issue

Wow...! You just made me realize that Sgt Fury from the war comics is actually Nick Fury from shield? I never put those two together before...I feel very dumb lol. That's a trip.

4 on the census, probably due to not being a particularly valuable book. Back of the book has a large section for various local stores to stamp their address/ads on which is fun (mines blank sadly). Also might be why they didnt use a normal cover (cover is same cheap newsprint as the pages within the book).

What a fantastic cover. The more of these precode EC books I see, the more I can understand why Congress finally got involved. It feels like a bit of an arms race watching covers escolate leading up to 54, I wonder how far it would have gone without the Code. I'm finally getting my first EC book thanks to a recent sale, and can't wait. Thanks for sharing these covers!

Based on my ebay acutions lost in the last 60 seconds (bot) of bidding, there stil seems to be solid demand for PCH. EC books are red hot right now.

Hopefully this is the last purchase of the year. Saw this book in one of the threads on here, and had to hunt it down.

I have 2 copies of Spider-man 2099. I got both of us covered
