I love having things to share! These came in this week.

 

 

Both very sweet!!!!!!! Those damn Greek books can be tough... though lately they have been getting squirrled out of hiding by a few of us!

Just a heads up that there are some awesome German editions available via the charity event on behalf of Fazybones running this weekend in the GA/SA/BA Sales Forum.

Here's a few side by side views of some Dutch and Mexican books for comparison.

FEDERICO - ITALY

I was pretty sure I mentioned the thread to Federico, but it seems I didn’t… My bad.

This is something I've never really done - I'm gonna try to show all the books I have from specific countries, not just sets.

 

I do have a second copy of the ASM 252, but I believe I may have left it in Seattle. I may not see it again.

 

Here's everything I've got from Greece:

 

[vaillant]

Curious to see the Carnage 1st app and the McFarlane Spidey are translated as something in the vein of "Aracne" (transliterate from Greek), while all the others were inversely transliterated from English (not a greek word): "Spaider Man" (that "P" is a Rho, the Greek letter corresponding to our "R", while "X" means the sound "CH" – as in "AraCHne").

Anyone up for some Dutch Neal Adams, Bernie Wrightson & Nick Cardy goodness?

Here's a few side by side views of some Dutch and Mexican books for comparison.

 

There is two books in there that I really really really really really really want to have a copy of....these awesome!

[XXXPHOENIX]

UH....hey guys...you seem to like Fury....so catch these:

This series lasted 13 issues only! Printed in 1966-1967, the first 11 issues were in comic book format, while the last three were printed in Diabolik-like size!

 

FEDERICO

[vaillant]

Well, Federico, that Sgt. Fury run is remarkable to say the least, and in that condition…

[TheLiamSturgess]

Frederico! Do you know if the issue featuring Captain America was printed? It usually has a red cover and was originally #13.

[vaillant]

Liam, hold yourself, as these are the covers to the last two issues:

 

 

 

and this pretty much proves it probably wasn’t selling well…

 

Now you have me wondering whether #13 contained the Cap story, if so I’d like to look for it. I do think it will be TOUGH.

[XXXPHOENIX]

it is rumored that no more than 50-100 copies of each #12 and #13 still exist...

I got #13 but still looking for #12....

 

Are you looking for this cap appearance?
