I still have most of these. 1-36 and 6 annuals. I stopped at 36 because I remember that 36 and later seemed plentiful as back issues for years and years in Warren ads. Under 36 were the rarest. I love the issues after 36 but the 36 was as good a stopping point as any to keep the collection manageable.   

Your favorite monster mags ☺️

   Well, "LIQUID ASBESTOS" would've been a better description (one issue of MMC did use that later on); this isn't exactly what I was referring too by excess labeling.

I mean examples like MMC #36 which is another sweet Schomburg cover, but IMO i would've been so much better without the labeled... 

Thanks for posting this! I don't have a copy, but it's a perfect example of what I was trying to describe, ...and still it's an awesome Schomburg. 

 

Schomburg had so much experience in the ‘20s and ‘30s drawing instructional manuals and diagrams for electronics (transistor radios, etc). I’m sure he was really excited to do a detailed map of the Nazi invasion tunnel for MM36 and Goodman did not veto it 😊

It would've gone for more but I already have a copy 

I was going to go for it and I have a copy 😆

All this talk with Daring #1, well here's my copy. Got this in recently.

Nice. Schomburg’s first cover for Timely. I felt the 4.0 went cheap at $13k. I was thinking $18k-$20k.

The AA #16 CGC 1.5 sold for $72k.  Pretty high if you ask me.

Agreed. The cap 3 was a little light, on the contrary.

Love that cover. Oddly GCD says it's a Burgos cover?! Looks like Everett to me.

Looks Everett to me as well. I like that cover too but wish his ankle wings 🪽 were not omitted.

Perhaps Goodman was also skeptical of superheroes at that early stage, which would have been the time of Marvel Mystery 3. He'd figure it out soon enough after his comic book contest results and sales figures came in.

The Daring Mystery ad is nice. Yes, and Marvel 3 would have been out Nov ‘39.

Risk it 

Likely worth it as there’s no way it drops to a 3.0. I think PQ would bump if it stayed a 3.5

Get it re-graded Ben! 

Probably gets a 4.0 - 4.5 🤓
