KirbyJack Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 I like your well-loved (thrashed) comics! Looks like you've been in my longboxes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOMBU1959-migration Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Thanks, I've been collecting since 1962, and this is the tip of a 'largely' reader collection, some VF+, I think at last reckoning around 12000 Marvel and Atlas. No DC however, I did daly a while with Superman and Green Lantern back in the late 1960s, but its always been Marvel first. Did dip a toe in the Timely pool a few years ago, mainly Captain America, Mystic, etc. But since then, sold up to complete the Silver Age Marvels. The only ones I haven't got are FF # 1 - 4, and Amazing Fantasy # 15, much like many of the folks on here...I can dream. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtlasFan Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Just thought I would entertain you with a few of my favorite pre-hero covers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamstrange Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Wonderful pre-hero books! Atlas books are great, too! There's a Silver Age War thread and those would fit right in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOMBU1959-migration Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Oh man, these really 'Are' awesome. A rare treat to see these numbers in VF / VF+ . The monster tend, rarely bettered.

zzutak Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 WTTB, Bombu! Thumbs up on the Man Comics #27. How many times do you see a rocket ship, a dancing raccoon, and a bunch of commies getting their butts kicked by pre-pubescent boys on a single cover? And don't fret about grade -- pound puppies often make the best pets! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOMBU1959-migration Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 thanks, these are seriously great sci fi covers. I have the pleasure of these ones as readers, and they are among the best stories of the time. Some real favourites here. Looks as though they were bound in a ring bound folder?

Man...I've got the same book only with some serious Marvel chipping chatter down the right edge...OK, risking ridicule, I'll show mine ( you showed yours) Seriously, the gloss and everything else about this cover in hand is pretty eye-popping...
