I'm glad you said Atom Age because I can get two of my nice DCs into the photo.

 

:gossip: The Fight 42 is the Lost Valley Pedigree.

 

Very nice choices Sean :applause: And thanks for squeezing in those two awesome DC's (thumbs u

Thought it might be fun to see people's group shots of their ten favorite Atomic/Gold books.

 

Here is mine, in order, from 1 to 10...

Thank you. I'm not buying a lot of books right now, but as you can see, I think I'm going for quality of quantity at the moment.

to reduce to 10, remove the Miss Fury, Tough Kid Squad, Kid Komics and Young Allies, and you could accomplish a "top ten" (IMO)

This was a tough thing to narrow down...so I cheated a little. :grin:

 

I think these are my ten favorites (at least for today)...

(I have had the Torch 23 since I was in eighth grade. Bought it from The American Comic Book Co. through a CGB ad for $40.

Captain Marvel 17 (not this copy) was the very first golden age book I ever saw in person.

And the Mystic 1, well, there is a ton of sentimental value there.)

 

 

These are certainly ten of my favorite non-Timelys...

But the red covers need to be represented...

And finally, ten covers that just look cool together...
