Frisco Larson Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 I haven't chased this run at all really and I've already posted two of the three (9 & 11) different issues I have from this run. This is the only other issue I have from the run and for whatever reason, I have three of them (well, I HAVE always loved this Kirby cover!!!)!!! Oh and @bc, below is what I usually end up with as a reader (they ARE usually cheaper). bc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're getting technical, it's15-19 (the last issues of the title) . #15 has a Kirby cover, but really 18 & 19 are the start of the monster era. -bc Frisco Larson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A long time friend has been collecting the PHM books for decades and has almost every one of them! I, on the other hand, need a ton of them!!!

Frisco Larson Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 I've always thought this was a cool little run and wondered why it ended, you know, beyond the obvious conclusion that it may not have sold well. Any actual insight on the topic gang? What's not to love? Kirby back at the company, drawing cover duties! Ditko, Kirby, Powell & Heck on the inside! Seems like a home run to me! bc, Kevin.J, Mucheee1 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they killed it to focus on the Big 4 (JIM, ST, TTA & TOS) during the time IND supposedly limited them to 8 titles per month. -bc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
