1st Cover I ever owned.

I met the artist Kalman Andrasofszky at a Paradise Comics Toronto Comicon

He ws selling them at his table. I only had the cash to buy one cover but days Later I contacted him and was able to work out a deal with regards to the rest of the covers in the series!

 

 

 

 

The cover to Black Adam 5 I was able to work out a deal with Doug Mahnke's Rep on these boards. I loved the cover. Completely Kick

[MedicAR]

Here's the actual original cover. My first cover ever......

 

[Claudio]

Just to mix it up a bit...here's a modern cover from my collection:

 

 

I'm a big fan of Eric Powell, but have tried to stick to his main creation, THE GOON. Had to get this one, though. One of Eric's coolest covers. I dig the touch of Jack Davis...fitting for a horror/comedy comic.

ah man. that is sweeeeet....

That is gorgeous! Adkins may be one of the most underrated artists of the Silver Age.

SWEET TTA cover, Trent! How long have you owned it?

 

ig64 - love the Hulk cover.

[Mister Trent]

SWEET TTA cover, Trent! How long have you owned it?

 

 

Five or six years I think.

 

I did have the accompanying TTA # 96 cover, but Will Gabri-El traded it away from me last year (with an offer I couldn't refuse).
