How to recognize different trees from quite a long way away. Number 1, the Larch.

[cpannell]

Strange Tales 79, 1.8, $20. "L" shaped piece of tape running 2" inches down the spine up top, 1/2" spine split bottom. Overstreet notes a Dr. Strange protoype, but fails to mention the first appearance of the Living Shadows, who returned in the 70s to give Hulk a hard time, namely Warlord Kaa. One of my favorite covers of the run and also of the pre-hero era. Kirby inked by Ditko =
