Darn I've run out of pithy things to say..

 

Down to only three books on the grand tour of 'the books that I wouldn't couldn't shouldn't purge, except as a last resort, and now for a book or two that don't appear to be part o my regular CGC focus...

 

Although I have written about my friendship with Mike Grell, I may not have made clear that my love for Green Arrow came first.

 

I always thought that his trick arrows were pretty sweet, and once I discovered that he was a comic character from the 40s, I was hooked: Arrowcave, Arrowplane, Arrowcar, Arrow sidekick. He had it all, but he didn't have to wear all black and be moody, plus he had regular friends in Hal & Dinah. Plus no one ever put him thought Arrow Mite, or 80 page Giant Arrow-Family....

 

For all the excitement that surrounds those key Bat issues, key Arrow issues are almost unknown, hidden as they are in More Fun Comics, which is also home to Aquaman, Dr. Fate, The Spectre, and even Superboy.

 

At number three, I give you the first and only over appearance of the Arrow-car, More Fun Comics #78, CGC 5.5, off-white, with an issue date of April 1942.

Wow, 1942, nice looking cover. I didn't realize Hawkeye had been around that long or that his outfit used to be green. MMM. :)

Hawkeye? which one is that? That's the african-american guy with the green wings that flies and hangs around with Captain America, right?
