Ze-man Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 I love this book. It is one of the few books I still own from my childhood. Although I think your GR is in a little bit better condition. Does your scanner darken the reds?.. the colors just look soo different. What does everyone think of my tape job? I will be taking it off soon,as it is a gunky mess and will only get worse.

Red Hook Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 I'd like you to take your copy and go to town on it with your new skill set and see how good you can make it look. Consider yourself served! and the reds of my scan are closer to true then the more orangier colors of yours. I suppose that could have been due to different parts of the press run.....or the fact that you obviously went steady with your copy through high school.

Ze-man Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 I actually just went and pulled out this copy to compare it n hand. They must have been low on reds when my book went through the press. The greens and blues are not that much different then yours. But man, the reds and oranges are worlds apart. I love seeing examples of how books from the same run can look so different. Except now I gotta go dig up my other copy I bought last year to see how it looks comparatively. And when time allows I do plan to work on this book. Probably focused more on conso then resto. I doubt I will do any CT on it, just clean it up and make it whole again. Will post results, someday. busy busy busy.. Now back to the regularly scheduled peds.

comic_lot Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Nice looking JIM 105. I always liked the yellow Marvel covers from that era, and the colors on your copy are exceptional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DKB Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Yay, this thread back on the front page again! Great books! Few more Mass Copies. I grabbed the #1 too, for the sake of keeping the set together, but it struggles to be a F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(thumbs u 'Preciate the compliment. The colors are nice on the book, but I think I scanned this before I tweeked the settings on my scanner. There's a little too much color saturation going on. Didn't realize it until I posted the scan. Angelo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ze-man Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Angelo, nice book. And I was actually going to ask you about the contrast on your scan, while I am sure it does have great gloss and depth is person. That yellow is crazy! Anyhow, here is one of 3 SSWS Mass copies I got from Andy. Just for fun a close up shot of the ULC corner. This close it makes HG books look like dogs.
