shiverbones Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Great stuff! I am working on a Munsters run, but low grade. Here is a link to 1961 Where Turok is outselling Detective, Flash, JLA etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selegue Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Great! What a way to learn to read with such stilted title and tagline: "Queen La directs savage vengeance against Tarzan as he is trapped in the secret vaults of Opar" even though I'll concede that it sounds like a bang-up story. Why do you think in a mysterious and wondrous tongue speak I now? Actually, the grammar seems okay to me. Grammatically correct and pleasant to the ear are two different concepts. (thumbs u Why do I suspect that you prefer, "POUNDING HOOFS! LETHAL HORNS! HONKER STAMPEDE!"? Jack (especially the part about the honkers) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tth2 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Great stuff! I am working on a Munsters run, but low grade. Here is a link to 1961 Where Turok is outselling Detective, Flash, JLA etc. And Tarzan is even higher. That's really amazing stuff, I genuinely had no idea that the Dell/GK titles were such big sellers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiverbones Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I am guessing out of the gate Dr. Solar & magnus were not big sellers, as the early issues can really be a bit trickier to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never thought the early issues of Dr. Solar were hard to find, even in grade. Early issues of Magnus are tough, even if grade is not an issue, except for #2.

That's really amazing stuff, I genuinely had no idea that the Dell/GK titles were such big sellers. Not to digress, but I found it interesting that Stan was able to hold off on providing circulation figues on ASM, FF, DD, and Avengers until 1966. It was also interesting how Batman DOUBLED in 1966 with the show out. We watched it twice a week when I was a kid GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnT Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Every once in awhile a cover just strikes you and you have to have it. This one had that effect on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tth2 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Yup, I really like the GK painted Lone Ranger covers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frozentundraguy Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 This thread needs a bump. I seem recall being a bit hesitant to buy these comics as a kid. They were not Marvel, nor DC, and the dialouge seemed to be typewritten and oversized. However those painted covers really stood out. #33 April 1969 #16 March 1967 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hepcat Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 (edited) Did somebody mention Gold Key? Here then are scans of some of mine: 1 Northland copy 2 4 5 6 Northland copy 7 I thought I had completed my run of Doctor Solar comics in VF/NM condition or better until I took out my stack a few months ago and discovered a white paint smear on the bottom left of issue #3 that I must have overlooked previously thinking it was just part of the swirl of colours in the background!

Hulkfan Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Those are sweet copies of Doctor Solar, Hepcat. The good doctor is one of the few non-Marvel comics I collected back-in-the-day. Let me upload a few scans and join this party! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
