Artboy99 Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I held a boardies CGC 5.5 copy of #1 in my hand in January and offered to purchase but it is not for sale. I like the book and have casually searched for one but have yet to pull the trigger for the asking price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

50YrsCollctngCmcs Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) Northford It's maddening. Even the pedigree copies on these comics show some wear!! I mean no dis-respect to your book which is great it is just amazing that there are so few high grade copies of this run.

50YrsCollctngCmcs Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Finally I am a member of this exclusive club (well not #1) with a SDCC pickup from Dale Roberts. Can't wait to read this little beauty and happy to finally have a copy from this tough run join the collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjpb Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I've long found these Mysterious Narrator comic books intriguing, with their roots in similarly themed radio shows going back at least as far as the original Shadow show, when the character was the host but not participant in the radio dramas. I've not read much of the actual stories, though I gather that The Phantom Stranger of the 1950s was a participant in his tales, as was at times Harvey's A Man in Black called Fate, wheras Timely's The Witness seems purely a narrator. I'm not sure about The Mysterious Traveler, who migrated from radio to the comics. From those boardies more familiar with the contents of these books, I'd love to read about the differences and comparisons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
