Infinite Bronze Horror Thread 16 16

[Jayman]

Scored a number of WWTS from a @lizards2 sale. I have about 90% of the run including most of the early issues but was missing a #3. Such a great black cover and a wonderful lineup of talent. Take this brilliant 6 pager from Len Wein, Marv Wolfman, Russ Heath and Joe Kubert!

Edit to the above: I think I noticed a Frazetta swipe in that story. What say you all?

Good Catch! Although, I sometimes wonder that, if they can do all those other great anatomy panels, why the heck do they need to swipe one or two? Once you master anatomy there should be no need to swipe, I would think.

Although, Dan Adkins admitted to this and it hurt his career.

It could be just a “tip of the hat” instance, but I see your point.

I thought it was a little high myself but I have been looking for one since joining the boards. Not many higher grade copies available. I think the auction said 14 or so 9.2 and higher. True tough one in grade.

... Just think of all the extra space you have in your Bank account now  GOD BLESS ....

This thread is exactly what got me hooked on bronze horror. Avoid Sterling's posts if you don't want to go broke.

Got a relatively big haul in this weekend. In the process of re-bag and board.  Here are some of the goodies so far.

Yep, gets me every-time! Lol. Along with the woman reading a magazine that says “Cardy” on the cover.

That is also one of my favorites, Ghosts was my favorite title for a while, even over HOM/HOS. I completed the run probably 30 years ago. Any of the above purple covers are just great! Another favorite is the boy getting pulled onto the train full of skeletons. Liked that story even more as a kid reading that it was about Abraham Lincoln.

Yep. Definitely one of my favourites of the run too. I got this off the spinners when I was a kid...

Me too! I believe it was my first ever Ghosts issue I picked up! 

Would love to see the OA for it!
