Dr. Love Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Great books, damonwad, as usual. (thumbs u Lotta Kirby in the Black Rider one shot, rounded out with a Colan and a Powell story. Can't go wrong with that lineup. And the All Western Winners 2 and the 3 below both apparently have a Heath story. Can you tell it's him? Love this Shores cover.

Thanks Doc and I really like your AWW #3. Definitely one of my favorite Black Rider covers. Also, I haven't seen the insides of #3 but you can tell it's Heath on the 5 pager in the #2. Obviously early in his career though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damonwad Posted January 20, 2015 Author Share Posted January 20, 2015 Does this count? It counts in my book. Nice one. I always wanted to read the Space Westerns and hopefully the stories aren't terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjum12 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Here's the Black Rider about 10 years later. Severin cover with 3 Kirby stories. The Kirby splash is from my reader copy. ....I love this comic. At one time I owned 3 copies.... the Toronto, Jerry Weist's copy, and a reader that was autographed by Jack AND Roz Kirby ....... and I still keep checking out the slabbed 7.0 w/ white pages on eBay ..... GOD BLESS.... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they sign it for you personally or were the sigs there when you bought it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjum12 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 (edited) They were on it when I got it..... came from the Bunky Bro's. It was definitely authentic. My buddy Lewis ended up with it..... he'd wanted a copy for years and couldn't find one...... pre internet, this was a book you just weren't going to find. I got the Toronto from Atlas Fan....it was once top certified before it was dis-entombed. Yours is probably tied with the Weist copy for top now.... but I haven't checked the census in a while.

I must confess, though...... I'll always get excited when I run across a nice copy of a '63 Marvel ....I still wonder what Black Rider Rides Again # 2 would have looked like, but it was a victim of the implosion and it's contents were salted into other titles like Gunsmoke Western.

I'll always love the early Marvels but I try to limit my collecting to books guaranteed to go down in guide every year . Sometimes though, I get tempted to start picking up some Fine range readers just to relive my collecting youth. I'm afraid I won't be able to stop once I start though.

Dr. Love Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I saw a copy of this AAW 113 Toth book for the first time last year, maybe adamstrange? anyway, knew I had to get it someday, and someday is now. Right place, right time, right price. So that's one of the Toths down. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
