Too bad the Sea Devils' stories were so unmemorable.

I like the SEA DEVILS battling SPONGE MAN in a CHALLENGERS OF THE UNKNOWN story. Issue #51. I believe it was a RUSS HEATH cover also.

the cover to Sea Devils 2 is awesome!!!

It was a full-page ad in the months before it came out and it was ingrained in my memory.

LOVE those grey toned covers!

I saw Russ Heath at a show once sitting all alone at his table for most of the day & asked him if he could do a small sketch. He went off about how he'd have to do it for everybody else He was sitting there alone the whole day!!!

[Aman619]

yeah...and Rob Liefeld probably had a line around the convention!!!

[divad]

NO!

Some day, I plan to put a run together. The covers are just AWESOME. And they're all full of Russ Heath art. Fortunately, noone else wants them, and so they remain inexpensive.

I used to collect Sea Monkeys when I was a kid- but I could never teach them how to do that trick with the beach ball.

Once you get all of your books CGC'd, you should make a website to showcase all of them. It'd be very interesting to see the full collection, and the grades from book to book. Since I assume the collection will eventually be broken up, it would be a nice "tribute" to a non-pedigree OO collection.

I echo that 1000%! BB, after it all gets graded, you should post a master list with grades, perhaps there will be some ability to get a retrospective pedigree. The more I see of your collection, particularly its depth and breadth, as well as quality, the more blown away I am.

I'd posted this before in the low grade thread. But since Burntboy is keeping score of who's responding to his sweet DC scans, I thought I'd add another vote of confidence. Keep 'em coming, BB!
