I like that cover. Congratulations!

Went away with the family for a few days and this was waiting for me when I got home.

 

 

Best cover of the run. Congrats!

Thanks fellas.

 

Any guesses on cover artist? GDC says Schomburg?

 

Schomburg gets my vote - those evil Nazis are definitely drawn Schomburg.

Bought it from Metro yesterday. I was negotiating for a stack of GA when I saw it on the wall and it was love when I pulled it out of the sleeve. It has really nice gloss and white pages. Metro graded it a 7.5 and I agree. Its main problem is some tearing at the staple on the back cover. The gloss and pages on this are the nicest I have ever seen on a Timely and I own a few white pagers.

 

P.S. I love my wife. She didn't even bat an eye when I announced that I wanted this book instead of the stack of GA we had spent the previous 30 minutes talking about.

 

Awesome and congrats, what a rush to own such a nice copy.

Yeah! Very nice!

nice! i love to pick-up "cf detached" books, as it's a virtually meaningless flaw to me in a slab, yet the hammering they give it in grading gives you a comic that looks so much better than the number.

(thumbs u Agreed. A friend on the boards put me on to cf detached books, and so far I've been lucky to find some nice ones I think.

Since the topic was brought up, here's another "cf detached" book I'm presently paying off.

Great copy! I wonder if Schomburg meant this to be a decapitation cover? The 2nd guy Toro is flying through; his head looks a little far away from his body to me. Edited July 31, 2014 by mdktkd2

Thank you. Good point, either way I'm sure that would've been the outcome a second later.

Ooh..look at the spine on that one!

Ooh..look at the spine on that one!

 

I know this one has a little rust at the staple as well, but I've looked at the scan from when it sold 10 years ago and it hasn't gotten any worse.

 

Either way, I don't care too much because it is a wonderful comic and from one of my top two favorite pedigrees

That is indeed a pretty book, Bill.
