Popular Post Rip Posted July 15, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 15, 2022 Here's something different and cool. I had bought this years ago and lost it. My wife was cleaning one of her scrapbooking dressers today and for some reason it was in there. Really like this Driben cover. For size comparison, I put another magazine next to it.

When I get paid next month, I'll be sending these in. 1st D.R. and Quinch and 1st D.R. and Quinch cover. I wish my scanner was bigger. No problem buddy. Glad I could help.

High grades are extremely uncommon, but I'm sure are out there. I bought mine as a raw NM back in 2017. Looks much better in person for sure! I was hoping for at least an 8.0 grade, but I'm damn happy for the 9.0! Mid-grades like the Bloke said are quite common. A 2000 AD Prog #2 CGC 6.5 sold for $11,400 with buyer's premium a few weeks ago on HA. I'll be selling mine in the next Signature Auction in September.

Popular Post Jayman Posted July 16, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 16, 2022 Well I just scanned in my mags from @Rips recent sale and they are quite tasty! First off is a pair of FMs. Love both covers but #40 might be my favorite cover of the run. If not, at least it is tonight!

Popular Post Jayman Posted July 16, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 16, 2022 I’m well on my way to completing my CoF run. Seems I’ve always passed on the annual, not this time though. Complete with a back cover pinup of Chris Lee as Fu Manchu (suitable for framing). OtherEric, Rip, batmiesta and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jayman Posted July 16, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 16, 2022 Almost forgot! The FM 40 had an illustrated story by Russ Jones and Joe Orlando. This would predate the story in Monster World #1. Thoughts? @OtherEric Morganmi, batmiesta, chevalmeow and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The decision to declare Monster World 1-10 as Famous Monsters #70-#79 was years after Monster World ended, they were not published anywhere near that time.

Popular Post Jayman Posted July 16, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 16, 2022 This may be the neatest one in the batch though. Extremely tough front and back cover. Also of note in this first issue was this full page introduction obviously referring to its main competition (FMOF). Stating what I’ve heard others say that Forry’s writing style was too juvenile.

I just noticed the copyright on the story as 1964 too! More clearly stated; the date on the story threw me off into thinking this may be a contender for the first Warren story as I knew MW1 was from the same year. But years apart as you proved.
