Flex Mentallo Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 (edited) I just tripled my non-EC pre-code collection. Thanks dear tax return! Can anyone advise: i) Are these any good? ii) Payette's grading? i) they are usually good, sometimes great - look out for issues with Everett and Heath art ii)Jim's grading is usually sound, especially in the low to midgrades - maybe less sure by current standards on the very high grades - say, VF and above.

adamstrange Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Adv Into Weird Worlds 23 is a good all-around issue with a fun cover and interior. I don't know any details about the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamstrange Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 The judge getting judged theme is a nice sub-genre within pre-code. And those last Mys Adv are super-gorey. (thumbs u Just got this one...love this cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayman Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I just tripled my non-EC pre-code collection. Thanks dear tax return! Can anyone advise: i) Are these any good? Now that's a silly question. They are most definitely not good, they are fantastically terrific! I love the Atlas horror books! That Mystic #26 is a classic decap cover! And how could you go wrong with a book that bosts "Bertha gets Buried!"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrooge Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 This in yesterday is, by my count, my 250th Atlas War issue. Is this now lunacy? Battlefield # 4 - And it's quite a nice representation of why I like Atlas War books. A striking cover in my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walclark Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 That's a beauty! Congratulations on #250! (And you're asking the wrong group as to whether or not an intervention is needed.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamstrange Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 A striking cover in my mind. That looks like a Harry Anderson cover based on a Burgos layout. Heath told me that he was required on more than one occasion to draw an Atlas cover based on a sketch from Burgos. I did not get the sense that he was pleased about that in the same way that he enjoyed working over Harvey Kurtzman's layouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't expect to get these in my paws anytime soon, since they are going to the States, then Canada, then here in the UK A winding road! Frigging Wertheim skrewed up a good thing for like 10 years.
