Here's another Frazetta. Not all that "valuable," but somewhat unique. This is the only comic other than Thunda #1 in which Frazetta did all the art. Many people don't realize that Frazetta helped Al Capp on L'il Abner for nine years. He also did some work with Harvey Kurtzman on the Little Annie Fanny comic strip in Playboy (now that would be a cool Playboy SS to get).

 

This book is difficult to find, and only three copies have been graded by CGC, with this one being the highest (the other two are 6.0 and 3.5).

The other CGC 9.8 ss is signed by Gene Colan and is not a pedigree.

 

And I wish I still had it...

Man who got those signed and maintained the 9.8 grades?? Those had to have been handled and cared for like a new babies bottom. lol

I'd have to go with this one, it's the only Chris Giarrusso sketch cover I've seen.

Here's a link to the rest of my SS books. There's quite a few that are top/lone SS census.

Didn't Chris also do a 'TheWalking Dead 1' homage sketch, it is one of the most, by far, original sketch recreations I have seen on the boards. I saw it in the Comic Book rooms thread a while back, that drawing is just tooooo freakin cool. I am pretty sure the guy that posted it had it framed.... :cool:

 

I am sure a Storm Shadow vs. Snake Eyes would be sweet...just look at his stuff..
