Popular Post IngelsFan Posted November 1, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 1, 2018 I was happy to have this one delivered on Halloween. It’s a recent pick up here on the boards and has proven to be a tough book to find in grade. Jayman, comicjack, Larryw7 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tazmaster83 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Congrats on the Fantastic Fears 5. I have a lower grade copy. Apparently, someone is trying to sell his 5.0 copy for nearly $2000 on EBay with a best offer option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronze johnny Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 (edited) Be interesting to see what other artist's first professional work, if any, were in a precode horror book? This is what makes Fantastic Fears a very special book- especially when it concerns the work of one of the most unique and greatest artists/storytellers of the 20th Century comic book. Ditko really started in precode horror (yes, his first published work was in a romance comic but Ditko will be remembered for his work on Spidey during the great Marvel Silver Age of Comics and the horror precode, and later horror-mystery-suspense postcode, prehero, post-Spidey Charlton, and Bronze Charlton with a tiny bit of DC and Marvel) What's fascinating about Ditko is how he kept his unique style in different eras - Ditko's ability to adapt to the changes that followed the introduction of the Code - something that artists like the amazing Graham Ingels couldn't do. It's only fitting that Ditko's first professional work was inside a book that helped to define his greatness- "Fantastic" and "Fears."

Tazmaster83 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 (edited) Well said Bronze! Someone who avoided the public like the plague because he felt his work was the only thing important. I think his place in history will gain even more in importance as the years go by. Edited November 2, 2018 by Tazmaster83 bronze johnny 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
