Raze Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I picked this up at Plant comic con this year and just now got around to reading it. I really liked the last story "something to remember you by!" I bought it for the awesome Russ Heath cover! And if you thinking " Wow Raze, you posted a nice mid grade book! We didn't think you had any of those!" Id stay" Well guys the covers detached..." Tri-Color Brian, Larryw7, The-Collector and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were a large part of the initial GA audience, sure, but comics back then had a wide, wide readership... plus that initial audience continued growing up, and their tastes matured (arguably ) as well. Servicemen returning from WWII were a significant part of that 'atomic age' comic audience....consider that a 19-year-old reading comics while serving in the war would have been in his late 20s when Weird Mysteries #1 was on the stands. The comic publishers did continue on with lighter 'kid stuff' like superheroes and funny animal titles, but they soon realized there was a huge audience out there for darker (and yes, sexier) stuff like crime and horror. Yes, that's why I said "supposedly" the only market were children. Everything written in the press at the time, plus Wertham et al., makes this assumption. I think it's safe to say that the majority were children 14 or under, though how much of a majority will never be known (51 per cent? 70? 90?). I recall reading a lot of letters in EC war comics from army men, but also Shock SuspenStories' letters pages contain many letters from adults.

Great book! I stumbled into a small comic shop in San Francisco on my honeymoon and found a nice one of those. And, you don't want to know how long ago that was...

Popular Post Robot Man Posted October 19, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 19, 2019 Mailman brought me another complete run yesterday. I had to pay up pretty hard for a low grade copy but the run is now complete. I will have to do a complete run photo when I get the chance.

I don't have this one and probably won't get it, cool and all just don't want to pay the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 (edited) I actually don’t think it as cool as the current market would suggest. There are many of these type of PCH covers. It just bugged me enough to get this one. Besides, when I think how little I paid for most of the rest of them, it kind of took a lot of the sting off... I also don’t have the COCs wine glass cover. It used to be just as common as the rest of the issues. I just never got around to getting it until it was too late. I’m sure, like this, there will be a copy out there with my name on it someday...
