Jayman,

 

Great covers on those Ken Shannon's. I bought an issue once ( not any of those), but found the stories dull. How are the more horror themed ones?

 

I found the Ken Shannon stories in both issues 3 and 7 (haven't read the 6 yet) to be very entertaining! They read like a 50's detective movie, with some witty wise-crack comments thrown about in the dialogue.

For what they are, they're a fun read. I'm a fan! :grin:

 

Here's some panels from issue 7...

I've only read the 3 but I thought it was well-crafted and enjoyable.

Purchased a few weeks back, but just slabbed tough black cover, OW pages:

Sweet copy! Congrats!

 

Speaking of heads...just recently grabbed this in the FS section.

Love this cover! Just finished reading it and the last story "Ted's Head" was a bit disappointing.

However the third story "Who Shall Judge" about a corrupt judge who gets what's coming to him, sports a nasty suicide gunshot to the head panel!
