One can dream..... Damn Andrew I want this but I also need to eat during the month of August... Perchance to dream, indeed...

I managed to find a coverless copy of Startling Comics #15. Any chance someone has the covers and willing to sell?

To another Alex Raymond creation

Floating on the clouds to fighting under the water

From a dark room to a dark cave

From almost the Perfect Crime to the Perfect Crime

More sword-wielding

I had picked this up off Ebay a while back. 1940 copyright - Hitler and Stalin The Murder Men & Their Plot to Rape the World

Yeah was this at a show? Have you notified the LCS in San Diego and surrounding areas if that is where it happened (based on your avatar locale?

I didn't mind SS but it was heavy for sure. I think it is Stan's favorite and maybe his way of finally writing that novel he always pined to do.

And I don't have a copy but Green Hornet Comics #15 is one of interest too. Yellow robed but in the vein for sure. Again not mine - wish I had one.

He did green too

Here are a few more off the top of my head

Yeah he was weightlifter and was a stuntman so the ruggedness came naturally. His westerns weren't bad albeit low-budget Bs for the most part. Remember too he played the Phantom in another serial. Still the King of serials for me was Buster Crabbe - I still love the Flash Gordon serials and Buck ROgers was okay. He did lots more but I still watch a chapter or two on youtube. I loved the guest spot he did on the late 70s Buck Rogers TV show with Gil Gerard. It was a neat homage to Crabbe and there is a great line in it.

So many times with the serials and I have a ton on wait for it, VHS - so I have seen I believe a bunch of them, the poster art and lobby cards which captured the action-oriented scenes like a movie trailer, the actual 12-15 chapters fell miserably short. The cliffhanger endings were fun but again many were lame when you saw the out in the next chapter. This one was really good and if I remember correctly, the Cap Marvel flying was a paper mache model propelled across a line. The Super serial used animation for that part so was kind of corny and very noticeable.

That Cap Marvel serial has been considered one of the best ever made and I have to agree. Tom Tyler did a great job.

Action 1 all day for me. I have all of the SA Marvel keys albeit not in that grade but they will always be around and readily available. But I am looking at this from my personal collector's view so a purely investment view may be different for potential available turnaround buyers.

Writing to Drawing on the Cover

At least it wasn't a "butt" purchase What was it and did it cost......

Self-inflicted doom to being saved from impending doom

I'll tell you Tomb-ever with a Screaming Tomb voice

When I first saw the title, I read it as booger. Sanitary wipe, please. Considering the prices, they aren't bogies but it is time for

Such a great cover. I love the Shadow. I still listen to the old radio programs. Orson Wells actually played Lamont/Shadow at one point. He was not my favorite though. An actor named Bill Johnstone seemed to nail the Lamont/Shadow voice and the laugh. By the way, Agnes Moorehead of Bewitched TV fame played Margo Lane at one point during the radio run. Lots of useless information, no doubt. Great book!
