CoinAddict Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I recently commissioned another Pre-code Cover recreation to Josh and this time I chose Mister Mystery #16. The piece arrived today and Josh totally made it his own. During the shipping the piece was damaged by the post office. The piece received two creases widthwise. I emailed Josh and told him about it and he said he would make it right by making me another piece. Josh is definitely a stand up guy. I never expected him to make a new color piece for me so he is definitely going above and beyond considering the damage was only partially his fault.

(thumbs u I agree.....very, very cool re-creation. If you ask me though, the mummy has the wrong idea wrapping her up...shouldn't he be unwrapping her??? Dumb-azz mummy! Sweet commission.

shiverbones Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 good point! Cool piece of art! That Mr. Mystery issue was one of the first pre codes I bought many years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoinAddict Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Thanks guys. I definitely like the PCH cover recreations that I have gotten. Do any of you have any suggestions of what cover I should go with next? I was thinking of maybe one with a vampire or a werewolf since I already have a zombie and this mummy. Of course it has to also have a girl in it since that is definitely Josh's specialty. good point! Cool piece of art! That Mr. Mystery issue was one of the first pre codes I bought many years ago. The sad thing is I still don't have a copy of that book yet. Whenever a copy comes around I have been tight on cash so I am still looking for a copy.

I would look to recreate some of the great Atlas horror covers..MENACE had some great covers....or maybe some of the classic VENUS covers. I would like to see Josh's take on the goddess of luv!

CoinAddict Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Thanks for the suggestion, Bill. I had completely forgotten about Venus since I don't own any of them but I think Venus #19 definitely has potential to be a recreation. Any other suggestions? It will probably be a while before I have another recreation done but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiverbones Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Venus #19 is about as classic as it gets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoinAddict Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 That settles it. 4 votes for Venus #19 so that will definitely be the next one I have Josh do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoinAddict Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 The commission will have to wait awhile or at least until the payment from the sale of Crime Suspenstories #22 arrives. I would have asked Josh to do it for the free piece that he said he would do for the mishap but I already asked him for an April O'neal piece which he sounded excited about doing since he has not done any pieces based on her.

shiverbones Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Man that book burns me up . I had about 6 copies in the early 00's, but it hadn't shot up. I sold them all, and now can't afford another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
