Ok, what's the lowdown on Fiction House?

[Scrooge]

I love it when they "pop"!

 

 

 

These colors are impossible!!

 

A few Wings for the thread's sakes -

[Cimm]

All kidding aside, if Fiction House had managed to have a good color strike on all of their printing runs, I think they would be even more collected than they already are. The difference between copies of the same issue can be maddening sometimes!

 

 

This one simply doesnt work if the colours are dulled and I'd rather have a low grade copy with great colors than a high grade without!

 

 

 

EGGzactly! +1, but applied to all Fiction House covers, not just that one... I recently sold a few of mine, simply because their color was not good enough, and every time I looked through them, I liked my copies less... the hunt goes on.

One last one -

I don't need any incitation to start collecting Jumbos

 

The 44 has a strong image but the 46 wins over it in my book: more detail and certainly a lot more dynamic with the water element and who wouldn't love the jumping-away frog

 

Once I find a 70, I'm out of Jumbos for a while. Feel free to fill that void.

 

Must be scarce? If I sell you mine I'd have to find another! And look, it's pretty, see?

Feel free to slip that one into my envelope as a thank-you for being a good customer.

 

Jumbo 70 isn't terribly hard to find, I've passed on four this year: two for being too beat-up, one was more than I could afford at the time, and the last has some nasty color fading. I haven't found one in my sweet spot yet.

Very nice - post more!

 

 

 

 

Hmmm... separated at birth?

Love that Wings #105 Michael!

 

Dont have many Wings myself but the ones I do wont surprise you! This is probably my favourite (highest CGC graded when I bought it - dont know if it still is, but it's a pretty copy) -

 

 

 

~89 is very hard to find with deep colors:

 

 

 

 

 

[Scrooge]

Wow again. That's a true red dress on the Wings 94. Mine, even deepened in Photoshop, still shows the orange dress version.

 

There are also plenty of other neat Wings covers that do not have GGA.

 

[dem1138]

I see that some of you need a Wings #101...

[Scrooge]

Not really. After all, I don't collect Wings :shrug:

[Forbush-Man]

I do. Just the first few & then the later GGA covers.

That 91 looks to be sub-par. For $25 I'll take it off your hands.

 

The # 1, :hail: didn't know / remember you owning it.

[adamstrange]

Seems like we have two copies of a big Wings books!

 

Great books all the way around. Seems like almost every issue is accounted for.

 

Something completely different.

 

[Flex Mentallo]

Very impressive Wings #1's there boys!

 

Here is one FH title I love more than any other:

 

 

 

Aurora:

I love those Ghost books.

Did Kinks Mason from Fight Comics hang out with Spurt Hammond from Planet Comics?
