DR.X Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 I love the Big Hand covers. Anyone have a Strange Adventures 110 to display ? Thanks. Probably my absolute favorite cover of all time. The trouble is I have never owned a copy. That guy must have a 3 stage fogger ( nitrous ) system on that car. Those tires are really smoking.

Stevenrams Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Yes, I absolutely agree; one of the great DC covers and a greytone, too. Must find a decent copy to complement my MGA 32. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RICK STARR Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Here are my copies of SA 110 and MGA 32. The SA is just a sharp fresh copy I picked up at a Sotheby's auction many years ago. The SA lot was from Murphy Anderson's personal collection. The MGA is nicer than I thought. Can't remember where I got it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RICK STARR Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Here are a few more selections from the archives. And ,of course, everyone's favorite the classic giant P-cover. Well as they say a picture tells a thousand words. http://s932.photobucket.com/user/JETPICTURES/media/HOS24_zpsd03d3771.jpg.html' target="_blank">a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trouble is I have never owned a copy. That guy must have a 3 stage fogger ( nitrous ) system on that car. Those tires are really smoking. I suspect the smoke is a way for Gil to avoid having to show where exactly the giant hand is coming from... Here's my copy. Come to think about it, I don't remember the story, or what the deal with the hand is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of color, my copy looks like that outside the slab. That makes a total of two that I've seen--mine and yours. I would love to see more.

JohnT Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 One of the best MGA covers, imo. Never knew it was by Meskin. He didn't draw many covers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come to think about it, I don't remember the story, or what the deal with the hand is. I have a pic of my 110 in my set. I love the book. If I remember the giant hand comes and saves this guy over and over during his life, I don't remember why the aliens felt obligated to help him - bug I remember it was an obligation for something they were the cause of when he was a youth...maybe.

Stevenrams Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 I realize that this House of Mystery 202 is a Bronze Age book but there are SA collectors that don't venture into the Bronze Age so I thought I would post it here. It is my only book that ever came back a CGC 9.8 and with White Pages. It is the only 9.8 in the census. Hoping it remains that way but who knows. Kaluta has always been a favorite of mine.

zzutak Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 That's a heck of a book. The highest grade I've ever received on a DC was 9.4, and that only happened once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtlasFan Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 Hey, if they can make a Guardians of the Galaxy film, why not an Atomic Knight flick? If only Marvel Entertainment could do it - they seem to know how to pull off comics to movie adaptions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
