TheWatcher Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 (edited) @bc 10+ years ago I bought a WoF 16 from Ted @ Superworld. I looked high and low the following years for the rest of the run, never seeing any issue other than 17. The 18 & 19 are two VERY hard to find issues, and your copies are spectacular Edited October 20, 2018 by TheWatcher Add the @ thingy KirbyJack and bc 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bc Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Thanks all! Here's another inclusive issue that I rarely see in the wild. KirbyJack, mysterio and TheWatcher 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyJack Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Very nice! I bought that issue during my one trip to the San Diego con. Not as nice as yours, but I thought it was a showpiece compared to my other early JIMs. Paid BIG for it, too. bc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this is the first of the PHM covers with the giant, nearly monosyllabic named monsters (crushing something with fleeing humans), but does anyone else think that they could have drawn Xom a little better? Or was this just to prepare us for the change-over to the Oog's, Zog's, Goom's & Bombu's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyJack Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 I like to think that Xom just left the genre some room to grow. But lemme check something... bc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyJack Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Journey Into Mystery 20 (Dec 54) comes close to meeting your criteria. Less so Strange Tales 34 (Feb 55), but it has that feel. Neither qualify as true PHM, of course. No Ditko or Kirby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirbyJack Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 I’ve looked all over the Big and Tall stores, and I never see the monster sections. But thank you! “Sweet pair of Kirby monster-pants” is The Quote Of The Day! bc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
