Action 29 cover and Funnyman splash scans needed for Shuster book

[craig yoe]

Hi!

 

I'm a doing a book on Joe Shuster for Abrams--the top fine art book publisher in the world! It's called "Secret Identity The Fetish Art of Supeman's Co-Creator Joe Shuster".

 

I need a 300 dpi scan of the cover of Action #29 for the intro. BTW, is this the first time Lois Lane was on a cover--or is that Lois? And I need a scan of a splash page featuring a giant Funnyman standing in what looks like Times Square with mobsters fleeing. Is this from Funnyman #1? Would appreciate any help and you'll get credit in the book and I'm pretty sure Abrams will spring for a free copy for you. If you can't help do you know someone who can?

 

Thanks,

Craig Yoe

I believe that further investigation has been done and determined that Acion 27 is actually the first cover appearance of Lois.

Craig, I have a Funnyman and I'll check if it's the right one. If so I should be able to get you that scan.

I can do a 300 scan tonight. Can't do the splash, though, as this copy is slabbed. And adam strange is correct, although Overstreet hasn't yet acknowledged it, the prevailing opinion is that Action 27 is the first Lois cover. In that case, do you still want the Action 29 scan?

The scan that you wanted isn't in issue 5. Scan below is from that issue. Funnyman rides a modified Indian motorcycle. Note the suicide shifter on the right hand side.

The splash that you wanted isn't in issue 2 either. Unfortunately, I don't have issue #1.

just curious about the lois citation--it's DEF the action 29 cover i need. whether it is or not isn't important but IS that lois on the cover? i don't need anything from the inside of that book. i don't need #27, 29's cover is what's needed.

 

do hope someone has the funnyman splash of the giant funnyman standing in times square with the mobsters fleeing. i found it when i did a search for "funnyman shuster" on google images. but it didn't say where it was from and it is low res. need these scans at 300 dpi. thanks so much near mint, adam strange, marc, house of comics, etc.!

and thanks bb-gun. BTW folks supplying scans, if you can give me your real name for thanking in the book it'd be good.

Take it you mean this one:

Only if you want the second appearance of Lois Lane.

 

I know I'm being picky, but that's kind of folks we are on the boards.

 

 

BTW, I love your work on ARF as well as your self-published zines!

[craig yoe]

thanks adam strange for your kind words about the arf books. did you see the latest--comic arf? i'm pretty proud of it. the action #29. just curious about lois. i need the action 29 for a different reason.

 

kool--yep, that's the funnyman splash i need! who can tell me where it's from and provide a 300 dpi scan?

[adamstrange]

I've only seen 3 ARFs so if there's a #4 I don't have that yet.

[craig yoe]
