Book Guy Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Time for some more! I have a slabbed 8.5 of Issue # 2 of this title. I'll post it if I can dig it up. I have most of these-nearly all I think, but in lesser grade. For some reason these ones were harder to get nice than the other titles, but that's probably just random noise and not very meaningful. No 15, Alas! Mucheee1 and bc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Book Guy Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 I have a few other 50's Spiderweb cover designs. Always an eye-catcher! bc and Mucheee1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book Guy Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Maybe the silliest cover? Mucheee1 and bc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book Guy Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 You see the 'Road up a hill leading to a spooky house' motif on a small number of these Books! bc and Jasonmorris1000000 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book Guy Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 I'm reminded of the 1st Challengers of the Unknown cover, though I suspect that one was inspired by Dali. There are a few Arm Breaking Out of an Egg covers scattered throughout comics though. Jasonmorris1000000 and bc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Book Guy Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 He looks like he's sitting on 'the can'. I do like the swarming crowd. Kirby had swarming/fleeing/milling crowds down to a science. bc and Jasonmorris1000000 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book Guy Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Nice colors. No '83' for me, Alas! More later today or tomorrow. Frisco Larson and bc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frisco Larson Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 I found this going thru boxes yesterday. I remember buying it from a local shop, then having it graded, but I never snapped a pic or added it to my registry, I just put it in a box and forgot about it. I knew I HAD it, just didn't know where it was. I kinda think it could get special dispensation to be included in this thread, being all PHM content, although it IS a reprint book, BUT a new cover, so yeah. Thoughts?
