MENACE for sale!

7 posts in this topic

Tonight I offer a few examples from one of everyone's favorite Atlas horror titles, Menace. These books boast some fabulous stories by Bill Everett, Russ Heath, and many other Atlas favorites. All prices include first-class shipping, insurance is extra. I have priced these pretty high because they are such amazing books, but I will happily consider offers sent via PM. :takeit: wins the book in spite of other offers or negotiations. Thanks!

 

Menace #2 (April 1953), featuring a dynamite Everett cover plus interior art by him as well as Russ Heath (a beauty!), George Tuska and Joe Sinnott. I call this one FN- because of the small tear on the back cover by the spine, but it looks much nicer, with spine stress and a corner crease on the top of the cover. The book has phenomenal color and gloss on the cover, and fantastic off-white to white pages. An extremely cool comic book! $400

Menace #3 (May 1953) (incredible that this was a monthly title!), featuring cover and art by Everett, plus art by Heath, Romita and Maneely (what a line-up!), in stunning VF- condition, with light spine wear and a light wrinkle or two on the cover; awfully close to a VF, in my opinion. Nice color and superb gloss on the cover, and remarkable off-white to white pages. Breathtaking! $600

Finally, Menace #7 (September 1953), featuring a rather ordinary Carl Burgos cover (Everett must have been working on some romance stories), but with an incredible Russ Heath story inside, plus contributions from Syd Shores, Joe Sinnott and Joe Maneely, in very attractive VG-FN condition, with wear and stress along the spine, and a 1" corner crease on the top and a 1½" corner crease on the bottom. Deep, vibrant color and excellent gloss on the cover, and very supple off-white pages. The runt of this litter! $195
