Comic World News 6 December 1963. Cover by George R.R. Martin. No, really.

What's the story behind this? And where did you find it? Very cool!

Bought it with a bundle of other fanzines from another boardie. The original publisher Paul Feola was pen pals with George and he contributed articles to this issue as well as 4 or 5 other issues of Comic World News. I have issues 3,5,6,7,8,9,10 and 11. I checked with Paul's son as to what the print run was but Paul passed away last month so not entirely sure how many were made. He did state that Paul made these on his aunt's mimeograph machine. George does mention this issue on his website as it being the only art of his that was ever actually published.

I wonder how often a woman in a nice dress and high heels found herself in the middle of a hail of bullets on a WWII battlefield.  Seemed to happen all the time when ol' Nick and the boys were around.

Apparently it's a thing with these guys!

Barely got a CGC copy (6.5) and this one showed up so dupes again…

 

 

[doubled]

Purchased a bunch of gold and silver age war comics.  Found this beauty in with them.  Pages are off white.  First page is cut the same as the missing piece from the cover, but is there.  Do you think this would grade?

I just started collecting again about a year ago.  Mostly silver age and bronze age DCs, but I will buy other things if the price is right.  Trying to collect all Eighty Page Giants, 100 Pg issues (regardless of title), Super DC Giants, and any DC title from 65-66 that has the checkerboard pattern on top.  Also, Neal Adams issues; Marvel or DC.

As a remainder copy with 1/3 of its front cover missing it would grade a 0.5. If the back cover is missing as well it would be a NG.

For any of your other books that you wish to have a grade opinion on, I would recommend this form -

A few c-link wins last week. Wanted to move on a TTA 62 before any other increases due to MCU hype.

Finally picked up this ridiculous Oddball/Esoteric giveaway comic.
