OK, I will conceed that AITI #33 and #38 are pretty good. I have both issues. They just aren't "over the top" as much as their contempories. The first dozen or so issues of both this and Forbidden worlds do have outstanding covers. I pick them up on the cheap when I can. One of these days, I get to posting some cool horror stuff.

 

I am a big Horror Fan also. Come on Bob, ACG's are cool.

I'll have to agree that while some ACG covers are cool they just seem to be a little 'friendlier' style of horror that turns some people off and why they didn't taken off like their contemporary publishers.

I can agree with this.

Nice pickups, HHwolfman.

 

I too have the JIM 14; in fact, it's about the only pre-code issue of the title that I DO have. For whatever reason, that particular title has always been expensive, relative to any other PCH Atlas.

Where else in PCH can we get a werewolf with lovely "Peggy-Sue" blonde hair? :insane:

Way ta go ACG! (worship)

I've noticed that also, not sure why. JIMs comprise the smallest part of my Atlas horror books too. I guess long term collectors don't want to let go.

Yeah, me three. I've got almost a complete pre-code collection except for this title. I need most of the 2-20 issues and just can't seen to get them even in lower grade. I think it might have something about the fact that it is a real long rin title like Strange Tales. Lot of run collectors want 'em. I mostly just want the pre-code issues. I've kind of backed off on them until they cool down as most everything eventually does.

 

Here are some early JIM's I got today. These early ones seem to be skyrocketing lately.

Two other pick ups tonight on Clink.

 

First one helps fill in my Venus run.

Second one I was hoping for a higher grade on but I got tired of waiting and the price was right. I love this Frazetta cover either way.

I thought this went cheap. Kind of a cool cover and one you don't see every day.

I don't have any of those. Most are post code so I never looked at any of them. Anybody know if the contents are good?

 

Without the CCA seal, would this copy count as pre-code?

 

I've never had a raw copy, so I'm not sure about the contents. I think issues 19 and 20 had Stuntman reprints.

Two nice books. Doesn't get any better than WSF 29!

I got this off Clink too (sorry it's not a better scan).

I thought I had a raw copy somewhere but I haven't been able to find it so....

 

 

I think this is one of the better "headlight" covers.

They should have renamed this particular issue "Rack Squad"!
