Dr. Love Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 However difficult it is to find TT 1, and as usual even more so in grade, it's going to get a little easier. My raw Crippen copy is going on sale in the forum tomorrow (along with a couple of other Bakers). I'll post to the announcement thread in the morning.

BB-Gun Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 i hope this book gets release on the Oct 17th hate to see another delay again. Looking forward to reading a copy. Is anyone reprinting the Sky Girl stories? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iksar Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 i hope this book gets release on the Oct 17th hate to see another delay again. I rarely buy these type books but I won't miss this one. Matt Baker has one of the most incredible stories (and talent) in comic history. It took me years to even see a photo of this artistic genius, who is more revered in 2012 than he could have ever imagined in his lifetime. What an fantastic movie his story would make.

Dr. Love Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 On a slightly different note, FYI, I'll be posting to the sales forum on Friday eve my "It Rhymes With Lust" (1950) slabbed 6.5. Pricing it will be a bit of a conundrum. RedFury's 8.0 blazed an expensive trail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Love Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Very nice Steve very nice. Both Blue Ribbons very strong mid grades, and cream pages are not only acceptable but almost expected so any day is a good day when they're oww. And the ranks of Wartime Romances welcomes #14, which had been the conspicuous missing link in the 18 issue run. 17 of the issues had already been slabbed by 8/21/06, 12 on that census date. The new #14 would be a long time coming, showing up with a white page blast from the past. Check out the word balloon on the cover, to their sor- row the creative team was probably told by the editor that no they couldn't have a different size word balloon just for that panel, it would have to fit, could they think of another word for "sorrow"? But no, you really can't. Sweet haul..who'd you say you bought them from again? Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got an e-mail notice from Amazon today, book is delayed (again, and again...) until January 8th, 2013. I spoke to the author at NYC. He said that the book is at the printers right now. They had found an artist who had worked with Matt Baker. They revised the original manuscript to include the new information that they received.

cshepard81 Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 I corresponded via e-mail with John Morrow on Sept 20 and was told the book should be out in the next 6-8 weeks. It feels like forever since I first pre-ordered it, but the end looks like it's in sight now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RareHighGrade Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Perhaps it will come out at the same time as the book on pedigrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's been ages since I've posted. I'm still looking for a few more issues to complete the St. John run but these may not surface I can't wait to see the whole Matt Baker book. There is a preview available on the Twomorrows website. I've helped to contribute to the book with a Fred Robinson interview. It has been quite awhile waiting for this book but I'm sure you will all learn new information on the legendary Matt Baker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Love Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Saw this on Sparkle City's Sunday rollout last night. So this is the It Rhymes with Lust 6.0. Nice. We know what RedFury's 8.0 looked like, since it sold on Heritage. So with this 6.0 surfacing, we have images of the three top slabs and many of the mid grades. GPA has never captured data on this one. I'm interested to see how it goes. You'd think it should go for over 1K, especially given how strong Sparkle has been, but who knows, may be a bargain in the making. Ebay's reach is certainly different than Heritage's.
