ROLE CALL for Adams' collectors....

[BachelorOfComix]

These tend to be tough; Early Adams Tomahawks,DC Superspec 5, a few Challengers, some early horror, Batman 222,238 and a few Detectives around 400 and a few others I can't think of right now

Would Green Lantern 76 rank right up there?

I agree completely with this. I have only seen copies of these on a few occassions, and then they were mid to low grade at best. I would love to find these in High Grade.

The Archies Joke Book which featured his first comic art.

 

He did not do the cover, in fact according to Overstreet he only did one page. But, it is still a nice book.

Who on the forum considers themselves a Neal Adams collector? Are you looking for all of his work, or just the some of the titles he contributed to? Covers and interiors or just covers?

Will the real Neal Adams' collectors please stand up?!

 

I am a serious Adams collector, but only for the good stuff. I believe I have every mainstream comic that Neal did more than 1 page of interior art in, and I'm working on the magazines now (just got a Dracula Annual #1). I don't buy high grade copies, and I usually don't buy books for the cover only - gotta have Neal pencils inside. And yes, I do own Skateman #1.

I've always been a big Neal Adams fan. I bought nearly all his stuff when it came out: Marvel, DC, National Lampoon, whatever. I even bought titles I didn't normally collect just for his covers or interior art: Jimmy Olsen, Lois Lane, Tomahawk, Eventually I broke down and bought some original Batman art. Don't ask what it is because I haven't looked at it in 20+ years but it's some Brave & Bold team-up.

10. Superman vs. Ali

 

I grabbed a Whitman copy of that book in FN along with two other books for $15 a month or so ago. I was very pleased.

[Rickdogg]

Here is the beauty I bought about a month ago

i do like that book, i almost bought one last month, but it wasn't quite nice enough. I guess i do kinda like marvel adams too, just not as much
