jimjum12 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Picked this up fora VERY good price in the Sunday HA Auction....GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u That may have been the first cover ever trumpeting a milestone issue! (thumbs u That's a nice copy. I had a copy back in the 80s that was beater and I loved it. It was my oldest book for a long time. Wow!! That's a beautiful copy, Jimbo. Did Heritage assign it a grade? Anyway, congrats on the purchase of one of my favorite comics. I own a copy that I bought raw and it came back a CGC 7.5 but with only Cream/OW pages. I would've preferred at least OW. Anyway, the colors on your copy really pop. SLR ....I just got this in the mail today. It has white pages and the only problem is the obvious issue with the staple.....which is still attached. Heritage has really stepped up their grading lately.....never a disappointment. GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluetooth-migration Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 I've got all of those too. I <3 Lois. Yours are very nice books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hepcat Posted August 6, 2012 Author Share Posted August 6, 2012 Here's what you've been missing but at least it gives you a collecting focus for a while. Have you noticed how Lana Lang wasn't drawn as attractively prior to early 1961 or so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 You know, DC seemed to have a hard time nailing down Lana's look in the early days, check out these: 1st Lana cover, doesn't look ANYTHING like her: 2nd cover appearance on Superboy (I think there was an Adventure in between) then...the very next issue: she settles into this look more or less. One of my favorite Lana covers is when she made her adult debut in Lois Lane: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevenrams Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 That #7 is also my favorite. She looks much more attratctive than Lois IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevenrams Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 (edited) Here's the frist Superman Comic I ever bought at a used book store near my home. My mom was a voracious reader and used to walk into Bart's books almost once a week. Now all I knew about Superman was from the TV program starring George Reeves. At the end credits a voiceover would intone: Based on the feature appearing in Action Comics and Superman Magazine. My parents subscribed to two magazines: Time and The New Republic (for those liberals out there) so I naturally concluded in my six-year old brain that Superman was acutally a magazine and not a Little Dot or Baby Huey comic book. Anyway, there was a box of comics and I saw on the top pile this issue of "Superman Magazine." "Hey mom, can I buy this?" How much she asked the owner. "Five cents per comic.," he replied. Anyway I didn't know anything about imaginary stories and I was afraid to read it. And who was Lex Luthor anyway? My dad kept the book in a shoebox for me and I have it to this day and here it is: Edited August 7, 2012 by Stevenrams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mort Weisinger had plans to remake Lois' hairstyle in late 1961 but the readers somehow voted to keep the old one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Lana was always hotter than Lois, forget the hairstyles, look at the difference in clothing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
