  1. Jaguar #14. Yet another parallel to Superman, as the Jaguar has a secretary who suspects who he is. Now we get to see the teen-age Jaguar. Can it be possible that not only did Jaguar borrow on Superman as a boy stories, but also from The Oliver Twist issue of Classics Illustrated?
  2. Jumbo #16 with the Lighting, art by Bob Powell, Will Eisner and George Tuska from June of 1940, easily makes it in my top 3 or 4 GA books.
  3. Issue #9 The lead story has the Jaguar investigating some really weird beasts, but first The Jaguar has to break out of his lab in a hurry to check out the threat. It turns out it's all a prank from time traveling college kids who have come back from 2059 to see if the Jaguar lives up to his legend.
  4. Interesting. I have not had a chance to read it yet. Your comments on having the book grounded in reality and so forth makes me wonder if DC was reacting to Marvel and the impact they were having with characters who had some real issues, and arguments with their team (thinking Fantastic Four here).
  5. I awoke from my non-Flash slumber and drove over to the nearest LCS to see what they had in the way of Silver Age Flash books. It was quite a search to locate even the boxes of older material, and I finally found the right drawer on a bottom slider where there was one S.A. Flash left. Needless to say I scooped it up.
  6. Going through some books to see what I might offer up in a mystery box
  7. Issue #6 one of my favorites of the Jaguar series. The cat girl has a scheme to capture the Jaguars heart. Turns out the Cat girls rival is some poor girl who wandered in to apply for a job, but the Cat girl is emboldened to expend her wrath on the Jaguar, or does she?
  8. I will kick off the Jaguar series with issue #2. It's a bit of pet peeve when publishers do not put issue numbers on the cover, but way to late to worry about it now. Luckily the Jaguar has power over all of the beasts, or he might be in a tight spot here.
  9. I had never even seen a copy until September of this year when I saw one for sale on Heritage. The 5.0 copy that was on sale sold on Oct 19.
  10. Thanks. It was great to obtain a copy where the colors had not faded, especially red to orange which seems pretty common.
  11. Three more. Hawkman 'grabs' the cover Adam Strange flexes his muscles. The Space Ranger invades the title
  12. Just arrived and in my top 3 GA books. Bob Powell cover art.
  13. A few lower grade issues of Famous Fantastic Mysteries - all from 1944. If only the folks at Magazine enterprise were not quite so busy stamping their name all over the covers. The March issue has a one page tribute to A. Merritt who had passed away recently. The June cover is my favorite of this batch September features the Brown Horde story The December issue features the Lost Continent by Hyne, which dominates the pulp leaving a mere handful of pages for the Highwayman yarn.
