    Wolverton

    in Golden Age Comic Books

    Posted

    Does anyone know of a Wolverton reprint collection? TPB, individual issues, anthology, anything?

     

    I love his work but I try to avoid buying golden age books just for interior art or stories. I know that seems assbackwards, but if I buy a vintage book it has to have a classic cover. The interior art and stories I am more than happy to read reprinted unless that isn't an option.

     

    Listers,

    I've done two 160 page trade paperbacks on Wolverton, but both are sold out. The good news is that this weekend we finished the CD ROM edition which includes both books for $20. Ditto my Alex Toth books.

    Alex Toth: Edge of Genius is just out, and Will Eisner, Edge of Genius is due in a month.

    Regards,

    I might post them as part of a group photo, but I doubt I'll be posting scans. I already have seen that lots of images are being used around the Internet. All-American 16, Adventure 40, and a bunch more, for example, are up over at the GCD site.

     

    I think, at least at this time, I'd like to keep some of the more special comics a bit more private. cool.gif

     

    Maybe I'll change my mind at a later date.

     

    Bangzoom,

    Sorry you are unhappy about the posts to the GCD. As you know, the GCD is a volunteer group, and nodody makes a buck off of it. If your images have been uploaded it's because they were upgrading existing covers others have contributed.

    The listers appreciate your continued kindness to us, and I personally would hope that you could extend that to anybody who uses the GCD.

    Would getting credit for the contributions change your mind?

    It might be a good addition to the database.

    P.S. I coughed-up a $100 contribution last fall because I think it's an important resource.

     

    P.P.S. More Eisner and/or Fine, please.

    Bang,

    I'm not a condition freak, but these books make me want to be. The conditions are superb for 60 plus years books.

    You should curate the Mona Lisa.

    Good work, BZ.

    It's like sliding up to a great dealer's table, and getting to REALLY inspect the books.

    Looks good at six feet, knocks my socks off at eighteen inches.

    "Wadda ya mean, it's not for sale?"

    Glad you are back on the scanner.

    Five minutes of your time will give us hours of pleasure.

    Jack,

    I have no idea what a "sepulchre" is, but assuming it's an environmentally friendly holder, archivally safe and providing encapsulation which offers protection from airborne polutants and moisture, coupled with a clear plastic front and back for viewing, addtionally containing info that confirms a condition grade and restoration check summary by nationally recognized experts on the subject......I wouldn't have it any other way for the 2nd highest graded copy of Reform School Girl! cool.gif

     

     

    Except, you might want to READ it, as apposed to OWN it.

    Regards,
