zzutak Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Sweetness! That's a keeper, for sure. White Mountain, by any chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnT Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Just in from Clink. Classic Anderson cover, and great Anderson art inside. Also Infantino and a great story by Sid Greene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzutak Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Very pretty, John. One of the best late 10-cent era covers. Nice snag! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamstrange Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Very pretty, John. One of the best late 10-cent era covers. Nice snag! The finely detailed overhead landscape views play right into Anderson's strengths as an artist. That's definitely one of my favorite covers of his!

The finely detailed overhead landscape views play right into Anderson's strengths as an artist. That's definitely one of my favorite covers of his! Did someone say Murphy Anderson covers? The man is the KING of sci-fi covers. Here are some of my favorites: I love the details on this one. Super-rare to find in nice shape. It took me quite a while to land this book. One of the best wash-tone covers, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnT Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 This one has always been a favorite of mine. I love Anderson's use of landscapes. The tiny details in the setting highlight how giant the aliens are. Still looking for a nice copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

telerites Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 I have been slowly putting together a mid-grade run of Captain Comet covers. Even managed to pick up the Mile High copy of #41. Still a long way to go but here's what I have so far... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telerites Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 And not a Capt. Comet cover but this was a book I bought back in the 70s that I had slabbed a while back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnT Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 Wow, talk about some hard-to-find treasures! Captain Comet is one of the most underappreciated characters in comics, imo. Not that there aren't folks out there looking for those issues--there certainly are--but he's such a great character with one of the classic sci-fi artists of all time. I've only got five of them so far: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtlasFan Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 (edited) Here's a great cover & story by Gil Kane. Not only does Captain Comet (kinda) make a cameo on the cover, but I would say that the Martian here could be considered a prototype of my favorite Green Lantern, Tomar-Re!
