MrBedrock Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 150, Bethlehem Pedigree. I guarantee this issue sold out back in the day. What kid could refuse to fork over twelve cents after looking at that cover? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Case Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 Atomic Knights are fantastic (just ordered the reprint book) but I also love this cover. Classic Murphy Anderson DC Sci-Fi! Great books guys. Love seeing these Silver SA's. Atomic Knights anyone? They are indeed. Definitely should have had their own series. If done correctly they could still make an enjoyable movie..

Justin Case Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 DR.X I wonder with all these high prices paid for a lot of Silver Age 9.4 and above key issues what price the Strange Adventures #117 9.2 would fetch(and no i dont have it). Granted its not a 9.4,9.6 or 9.8 but would that really matter seeing as its a key issue and easily the highest graded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hepcat Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 (edited) Has Strange Adventures now joined the ranks of titles that have fallen into disfavour? If so, I'll take that as my cue to parade out scans of some of mine. Edited May 25, 2011 by Hepcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hepcat Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 It's one of my all-time favourites as well. Julius Schwartz must have been prejudiced aginst dalmatians to keep them off any other cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamstrange Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I was watching that auction. Beautiful book! Back in 1996 Murphy did large sized color recreations of 15 or so his covers and the SA 150 was, in my opinion, the best. I think he knew it was something special when he drew it and he channeled that same energy when recreating it. What big kid could refuse to fork over a few books twelve cents after looking at that cover? Fixed that for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzutak Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Real beauties, for sure! (thumbs u Here's a few that I picked up on the cheap, before the Savannah and Twin Cities copies brought the high rollers into the arena. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also realized after looking at the date stamp on the Bethlehem that Strange Adventures 150 hit the stands one week after I was born. Had to have it!

adamstrange Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Technically speaking that's a GA book It's one of my favorite early Strange Adventures with that outstanding cover and an interior to match! Is that a pedigree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
