I always liked many of the Torch covers over many of the Marvel Mystery covers.. they were less redundant.

 

(worship) Love the variety in those Torch covers. :luhv:

 

Given the monthly schedule for MM and HT's popularity as a lead feature it's pretty amazing that the covers weren't more redundant.

 

Schomburg was a pretty amazing artist for that era or any era...

I think these covers are incredibly varied compared to MM's.. The #8 is under appreciated.. it's classic in my book...MM#9 is ground breaking but Torch #8... the art is more resolved..

I picked up 2 from the HA auction.

I don't collect post war, so I don't know why I got MMC #84... I think I thought it was a good deal.

Congrats on both :applause:

 

I think the MMC #84 is a fun cover. I've always liked it. And you get Cap on the cover which is a real bonus for a Torch dominated series

Thanks! I never thought I'd be able to get a MMC #2.

I'm not a huge Angel fan, but the cover is really well done.

 

Is mmc 84 the only MMC cap cover?

i hate it when the condition gods bless you with a great book by grade, but on a cover that could stand some improvement. only thing i like about the cover is the cool arrival date.

Love that'un. Asbestos Man is very hazardous to humans. Fortunately, the Torch is an android.! :headbang:

 

Here's a recent cover I like a lot, ...like very recent (arrived today)! lol
