lots of nice Sutton & Newton in many of those

[Jeffro.]

Yup. Even the Boyette painted covers are pretty cool.

Cool page number on the thread, by the way 1111.

Such a cool thread. And since it hasnt had enough action I figured I would give it a nudge. I actually started collecting BA DC Horror because of Sterling showing off his books, just some amazing covers to the books! Nowadays I have tons of readers and a few keepers for myself. I have been reading the Phantom Stranger almost every day for weeks now, and it is hands down the most enjoyable I have found so far.

 

Anyone else reading these books??

Picked these babies up recently through an online auction. I know capt hook is looking for a nice copy of HOM #174, but that copy is heading in for pressing and grading soon. The HOM #180 and #205 were sold in my most recent sales thread.

Mike, why are you pressing the 174? It doesnt seem to have any pressable defects?

Hi Pat.

 

You can't see it in the scan but there is a long non-color breaking crease that runs from the right edge of the front cover (up near the last Y in MYSTERY) all the way to the bottom edge. It looks like it should be able to be completely pressed out. There is also a small impact ding at the bottom right corner of the back cover. (thumbs u

I can only guess what it will grade, but my assumption is the grade will likely not change. I can guess the max the book could be, but cant see the above defects changng much. Good luck though, its a nice book!

Read a bunch of Phantom Stranger # 13 - 37. Pretty cool stuff. Will read these again once I've got each issue of the run. Good art and the stories are engaging.

I agree, love Len Wein writing this character!

one of my favorites

totally love this cover but I cant seem to be able to find a 9.6 or up copy.

I'm fond of that cover as well. The story sure is depressing though, even as comics go.

This is one of my favorite bronze age covers. I've owned quite a few of them but never anything better than a 9.4. For me at least it's been super difficult to find an UHG copy. One of the few books I actually want a 9.6/9.8 of.

I asked so many people but no luck. want to get a high grade copy before its price goes too high.

Just picked this one up on the cheap from a local shop.....

 

 

Like I said in the "This Week in Your Collection" thread, I'm hoping to get Bernie Wrightson to sign it at the Dallas Comic Con in late May. Besides Desert Wind, does anyone know if a Signature Series witness will be there?
