Show me your Timely's and I'll show you mine. Have a Cigar... 30 30

Finally tracked this one down in an affordable grade... this was one of the first (possibly THE first) golden age comics I ever saw in real life, courtesy of Doug Sulipa's Comic World, circa. 1982.

Unfortunately, the follow-up story in Young Allies #4 hasn't be reprinted that I know of. That issue is one long 45-page Red Skull story.

 

Come on! Don't be cheap and read the original - buy Jim Payette's VG- copy for $1,500. Who needs a stinking reprint

 

 

I have read the story - still have a copy - trust me, it's not worth the time - a couple of okay splashes and that's about it. Fantastic cover, but like many Timely's - 3rd rate interior.

Not me !

 

But here is a splendid Captain America #27 I just got in

 

 

 

 

That sure beats out my copy. But I'm still partial to mine, because its all mine!

 

[Silver Surfer]

Nice Cap's guys.

I had a few Timelys up until a few years ago when I sold them all, so here is my first addition to the new collection I am starting up...not in any particular order, but these are my personal "grails" that I want to try and get...

 

Human Torch 5, 8, 12

USA 7

Marvel Mystery 40, 44

 

One down, several to go...anyway here is my first Timely, bought from LCS. Nice clean mid-grade book. Unrestored. Small crease break in cover top right corner. Great colours and classic Schomburg cover

 

 

Hope to get a couple more off my list over the next year or two...

As I said before, that is a GREAT book... the figures are so large and prominent, which you don't see alot of in Schomburg covers. Congrats on a wonderful copy of that key issue!

 

I have to ask, who is "LCS"?

 

thanks

Yep! Golden Age in Vancouver.

Yep! Golden Age in Vancouver.

One of the nicer comic shops I've been to, anywhere. Of course, it's been 8 years since I've been there, but it looks like they still have good stuff.

[podboy66]

here are a couple of recent pick-ups, one from the 50's run and the first non-Simon and Kirby

nice books.

[rjpb]

That #76 is really sweet! And the Hillbilly cover on #11 is a keeper.

[Silver Surfer]

Nice books. Is the #76 from Marin's site? Restored?

[podboy66]

yes, noted to have a small CT. Does not bleed through the cover and it can't be seen without looking for it.

I looked at that book forever but didn't want to pay for a restored copy. Might be worth having a professional remove the CT if its really small. You have an envious collection.
